Time Bishop Store Is

! Evolution of shoes - in' the
nearly-half century which the
Bishop store has been catering to
the needs of men of this section of
the state, is described in Apparel
Arts anniversary issue la this
; wise: ;- ' ; '
; i "Leg boots faded -wholly by
i 1830, and with the change from
r boots to shoes came the idea of
i linings, either light leather or
cloth, making it possible to use
lighter outer leather.The Intro
duction of rubber footwear oc
curred at this time, making, pos
sible the production of the new,
lighterweight shoes. ;
. J "The public had known of rub
ber for many, years, but chiefly
as a curiosity. To the man on the
street in the early 19th century,
rubber was a curious something
brought home as. a souvenir of
tropical cruises and kept there
after in a bottle.
Oxford Here To Stay
"The ankle high shoe, fasten
ed by iaces, buttons or elastic
pores, ' continued until compara
tively recently as the most pop
ular style and at present has giv
en way to the oxford type of low
cut shoe. Because of the greater
support it affords the ankle, the
low-cut shoe gives evidence of be
ing with us for some time wlth-
.iout basic variation." -
The first American shoemaker
was Thomas Beard, who plied his
trade in Salem, Mass., fin 1629.
His shoe, low around the ankle
and graced with a huge silver
buckle, was a "straight," or In
, other words not shaped to the
i foot. !
But lack of shape did not cause
) the wearers in that day to blame
' the craftsman for badly fitting
shoes, r Instead, the good New
' Englanders soaped the heel and
r toe to get into their shoes, and
S. if a bunion or corn caused a groan
or two that night, it was an an
cestor and not Thomas Beard, who
received a round cursing. For
. corns and the like .were consid-
ered hereditary!
, After 1800, boots in this coun
try, became fashionable, prefer
' ably with rather high heels.
; Spring heels were adopted in
1835 and for the period between
; 1810 and 1855, heels were dls
' carded entirely by some. Boots
r with red sheepskin tops were the
1 rage, and each . occasion called
i for its different variety. - !
; "Straights" were worn up to
the civil war, at which time the
f public had quite a few vastly

It, "These are to neckwear what
the dusty tones are to shirts." The
ties referred to were of interme
diate shades with. an oft cast pro
duced by the combination of two
colors. -
Gray and red for example were
woven together and the result was
a dusty grayish red or soft red
dish gray. Similar combinations
are done all through the chroma
tic scale. ' Such color treatment is
prevalent in all sorts cf designs.
From the small geometries to the
stripes and larger figures, dusty
tones are attractive and salable.
