Hla address was in reply to that delivered before the Realty Board by James N. Gillptt, who represented the Southern Pacific in its efforts to defeat the carrying out of the court's mandate. The separation of the Central (Paclflo. from Southern Pacific operating control, said Athearn, and the entry Into this territory or the Union Pacific, would mean the greatest possible stimulation to the development of the San Fwncisco bay region.

Many women who have accustomed themselves to htgh heels and pointed toes say, "Oh, my shoes are perfectly. comfortable!" As a matter of fact they have forgotten what real comfort is. And they do not realize that the penalties of unnatural footwear may be felt in other parts of the body than tho feet. The Cantilever Shoe pro vides such normal, absolute east that discomfort and fatigue become as foreign to the feet as to the hands.

Not only are the lines natural and the heels built for perfect bal- ance and support, but Cantilevers have a flexible arch which permit the foot to bend freely. This gives strengthening exercise to the muscles and eliminates any possibil ity of weak arches. Expert FlttlB Always Cantilever Shoe Stores, Inc.
