Alternate Your Shoes

Alternating your shdes (or daily

day's rest is good for both feet
and shoes, says Miss Julia Mclver,
clothing specialist for the N. C.
Agricultural Extension Service.
Wearing shoes that are out of
shape and have run-down heels
place a strain on your feet. Heel
taps should be replaced before

Miss Mclver says clean leather
wears longer. Ouard against scuffs
and scratches by polishing shoes
before wearing. A cream or wax
type polish keeps leather shoes
soft. Preserve your leather shoes
by polishing regularly.
Shaped shoe trees help hold
shape of shoes. Shoe bags or
boxes protect against dust be
tween wearlngs.
Mud, water, excessive heat, and
dryness , ruin leather, says Miss
Mclver. Galoshes and rubbers can
help keep leather dry and soft.
