One Man Buys Five Pairs of
Shoes to Be Sent to French.
and Belgian People
One Qt Skagway/s most loyal citi
zens went Into the store of Ken
nedy & Co. the other day and
bought five pairs of new shoes. Af
ter paying for Nthem he 5v^lked
over to the box of shoes to be
sent to France and Belgium and
threw all of them into it. Other
people are bringing in old shoes
that have been newly half soled
and ar» practically as good as
new. Many high top shoes have
been sent, and others with just
the sole worn through slightly are
in the box which will make the wo
men and children of the war torn
countries happy.
Dortero & Sou are collecting
shoes and have quite a number on
hand already with, promises of a
great many more. Enough shoos
have been collected to date to fill
five bcses, the size of a Carnation
cream case, it is estimated between
150 and 200 pairs of shoeu have
beon. collected.
Rather than send these shoes im
mediately it lias been thought be. t
to wait a few days longer until
everyone has had a chance to res
pond and to send them all at once
in a single shipment. They will
be sent to the New York Life In
surance Co., of Seattle, who Will
reship to Europe.
