Dear Madam,-

maybe of some consolation to you
and your relatives and friends.
I can assure you of my heartfelt

France and Russia. Further, there has been an enorm-
ous output of officers boots, which have been supplied_ to
private firms. 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.
Credit and approbation must be stopped, let us all
help one another and pay spot cash at least during war
times. Should I buy shoes now or should I Wait. This is a
question which is uppermost in the minds of many a
person at the present time.
A survey of the situation discloses the fact that there
'is nothing in the air to indicate that prices will recede
but on the other hand there are any number of signific-
ant circumstances which tend to confirm- one in the con-
viction that high as values are just now, they will go still
higher. , _
