Mrs. America Meets the War Shoe rationing has focused atten tion upon the unused footwear ly ing idle in clothes closets of hornet throughout the country these days. It is estimated that about 50,000,- 000 pairs of perfectly good blit un used shoes fill closets or else are worn only occasionally. If you have shoes you are not using, get your wear from them and keep them in good condition. However, if the shoes stored in the family closet are outgrown or for some other reason will not be worn at all, pass them along to less fortunate persons. Meantime, use your ra-. tion stamp No. 17 for shoes as you need them. No need to worry for there are plenty for everyone’s re quirements for health and comfort. Retailers now have about 200,000,- 000 pairs of shoes in stock. millimeter anti-aircraft shells fired at enemy planes flying over battle fronts where American boys are fighting. It also produces half a pound of dynamite to blow up a bridge. Sometimes the pound of waste fat rescued from the family garbage pail sounds 10 founds from a 50-calibre airplane cannon pointed at an enemy. The price which comes out of the family pocketbook for a pair of spectacles should not be more than the highest prices prevailing in March, 1042 in accordance with the OPA ceilings on service charges. However, charges for the eye ex aminations are not price controlled unless combined in the cost for spectacles. If the seller had pre viously made a combined charge for both the eye examination and spectacles, he should not make separate changes now. And the pr'ce of the combined services should not exceed the highest charge made in March 1942, for the same combination. On the subject of footwear, here is the latest style notes dictated by the war production board in an amendment to conservation order M-217. Look for fewer frills and only four colors—black, white, and two shades of brown—army russet and town brown. Easter shoes will not reflect .the new order. As a matter of fact, these latest changes will not take effect until next fall, and even then there will be suffic ient patterns to provide enough style variety in addition to staple footwear. Heels on women’s shoes will be limited to 2 5/8 inches high and leather covered platforms are out. So are gee gaws such as bows made of leather, kiltie or oth er ornamental tongues if made of leather and trimmings such as pin- tuckings, fancy overlaps and lac ings. Furthermore, there will be no more gold or silver colored sa~fin or brocade evening slippers. Farm Ap - rW.
