All Things Nice And Fashion Spice
That's What Girls' Shoes Are Made Of
"Sugar 'n' Spice" is the gen
eral rule for little girls' shoes this
season.
The pump, for instance, is now
much like mother's fashionable
"little heel" pumps frequently
with the long, tapered toe of 1957,
but built on a last particularly
suited to young feet.
It also features high throat
lines, and trims on the toe or
vamp of tiny weskits or horizon
tai tucks. Some black smooth
leather pumps have spat-like
trim of taupe or beige suede
leather.
Some of the newest are smaller
editions of the spectator, pump in
taupe, beige or hlack with white
More American
Collegiares
In the United States, about 25
ficr cent of the college-age group
s attending a university or col
lege as compared to five per cent
of the same age European group.
In other words, at least five times
as many attend college here as
in Europe, and seven times as
many of the age group attend
high school in America.
trim and white leather linings.
For really gala occasions, a lit
tle girl demands slippers of gold
or silver leather or a luster leath
er or a jcweledtono suede pump!
Again it may be a combination
of colors of the' sugar-andspice
variety such as a pink leather
pump with bands of leather shad
ing from shell pink to mauve
across the vamp.
For parties and dancing school,
our little miss may be sophisti
cated in a bold-speckled, black
patent leather pump with gold
leather trim or in a bronze
scaled reptile pump with bright
blue suede trim. .
Sometimes bright applique in
vari colored leathers may twinkle
on a little girl's pump or it may
wear demure velvet bows.
Swivel straps that turn a shoe
from a Mary Jane into a pump
are a feature that pleases both
little girls and their mothers.
Heels on these "vcry-dressed-up"
shoes are curvy, just like
mother's. They may be encrust
ed with glittering rhinestoncs and
peans, or these jewels may ap
pear in a sparkling design on the
shoe's toe. A lucky little lady
may even have a rhincstone-and-
pearl bracelet to match!

Choose School Shoes
Most Carefully As
Kids' Feet Grow Fast
Say what you please. "Mother
knows best" is still the only feas
ible attitude for many occasions.
And, one of these is when you're
buying back-to-school shoes. Boys
are apt to think that shoes are
only to kick footballs with,1 and
girls that they're to wear to par
ties. But you know that the most
important function of these shoes
is to protect Ihe feet that they'll
have to use all through life.

school shoes. Your parents prob-

and light construction. Be-
the resilience of lightweight loath
sides the new lighter leathers
wear as well as the old-fashioned
heavy ones.
You should not buy shoes for
your child to "grow" into either.
Shoes that arc too big will cause
blisters now and misshapen feet,
with all the ills that attend them,
in later life. There should be
about three-quarters of an inch
tietween the longest toes and the
ti,) of the shoe, but no more.
One thing is the same now as
it ever was and that is the im
portance ot leather soles as well
as leather uppers.
Only leather with its millions of
microscopic pores allows the
moisture that accumulates around
the foot to evaporate, thus keep
ing them warm and dry. Leather
provides flexibility along with
support, too. allowing the muscles
to work and grow strong And
leather linings do not become
rough with wear.
Another thing to look for is the
leather welt uniting sole and up
per. It provides a firmer walk
ing base and gives assurance that
Ihe shoe will hold its shape to
th" last day of wear.
Of course, never let your child
