Best time is well before school opens for the new season so there j can be no doubt about taking the s youngsters down to the 3toie. ? Here's a summary of what's new t and Interesting in shoes for school ( children, now being shown by the 't stores: FOR LITTLE GIRLS, more feminine-detailed school shoes in soft leathers; more soft and light [ weight styles; greater variety of I' leather pumps for dress wear; and ' ' i lew tricky one and two-strap san lals. Not many laced oxfords. Low Top Lines FOR BOYS: leather shoes with i definite masculine look,, yet' ightweight; tassel moccasins and trained leathers predominate; nany versions in the low top-line >attern.? The low top-line is par icularly popular among teen-age >oys ,who tend to follow the styles :et by Dad. MALE TEEN-AGERS have ad vanced from the sloppy stage popu ar a few years ago, and have ?ranched out into smartly-styled lacks, shorts, jackets, etc. This rend ic carried into footwear. For school, particularly, they rant "sharp," but simple styles, uch as two and three-eyelet blu hers in plain and moccasin toes 11 the new crushed grain and mooth leather1.

But his complaints were a mere whisper compared to' the howl put up by today's youngsters if they have to walk more than a half dozen blocks to school. According to foot doctors, how ever, there may be some merit to Junior's complaints. The doctors say that Junior's feet are probably worse off than Grandpa's ever were. Why? Well, Grandpa's par ents knew more about foot care than we do?his generation did a great deal more walking and thus were more conscious of shoes and foot comfort. Today's youngsters do a lot of their daily travel in cars and buses, and parents are apt to neglect their feet?which is why school | examinations turn up the fact that I far too many children are wear ing unsuitable and outgrown shoes. The pair you bought Junior for the summer may still have a lot of wear in them, but chances are they're cramping his feet as he steps into a new school year?and that can be the beginning of foot troubles that can plague him all his life. With two or three months of rough vacation play behind them, now is a good time to check your children's shoes if you want them to walk into the new school year on healihy feet. And be sure to take a little extra time and care when you buy Junior new shoes, especially as far as fit and materials are concerned. Make certain that the uppers are of supple leather which allows for normal foot expansion, and that the soles are made of flexible leather that bends easily with the yy / xJB 1 .1 911 1 oom> f /vw4 ft kiv onJ stvlishlv dressed if their rlntk*.
