Airmans boots, Colonial and Native boots, shoes and sandals, all swell the list, and ignoring the vast supply of ordinary boots, taken from stock for military purposes on the outbreak of war, the total quan- tity produced during the war exceeds thirty million pairs. ' Two firms one in Northampton and the other in

London-have completed a million pairs each. W. H

Dixon, a representative of one of the largest English shoe firms has just placed an order for $1,000,000 worth of footwear to supply over 200. retail stores of England

and Scotland; Shoe dealers will have to pay spot cash.l

Indeed they will be fortunate if they can get their fal supply for cash owing to the great scarcity of leather.
