Gutting Down Your Children's Shoe Bills ONE of the biggest bills you have to face is the cost of your children's shoes the climbing price of new shoes and the rising cost of repairs. Because Neolin Soles wear from two to six times ordinary leather, they materially reduce repair charges. And because Neolin Soles are waterproof they give old shoes new life and make new shoes last longer than with ordinary soles. as long as Ordinary soles are not waterproof After one' thorough wetting they become spongy and ' porous, so that they easUy soak up literally breathe in the mois ture from damp playgrounds, from snow underfoot, from muddied crossings, and even from the thin film of water on pavements after showers and thaws Then the constant pressure of the walking or irunning foot stretches the welts and seams so that the shoes lose shape and wear out quickly. But Ne5lin Soles protect the uppers from this damage because they are waterproof. And this waterproofness not only saves shoe bills, but doctors bills too. , For children with the constantly damp feet that ordinary soles cause, are always in danger of colds. Eight million pairs of American feet have proved Neolin's greater saving and its greater comfort too. For NeSlin-soled .shoes are so comfortable that they re quire no breaking in. Be sure to have your children's new fall and winter shoes soled with Ne5lin. And when you have their worn shoes re-soled, have it done with Ne5lin. Neolin comes in black, white and, tan on and for men's, women's, boys and girls shoes and it always bears the brand NeSlin.
