FRICTION THE ENEMY
Therefore pivots are finely polished. Jewels are
of ruby or sapphires, the oil carefully refined; all
to reduce fricton. On these bearings the balance
revolves 432,000 times daily, astounding isn’t it?
Yet cleaned and oiled yearly a watch will run for
generations, and if neglected, it must with such un
ceasing toil, wear itself to ruin in accumulating dirt
and corroding oil. Let me ex amine it, an honest
opinion from me will cost you nothing.

SHOEMAKERS ARE
NOT PROFITEERS
The shoemaker is .daily ac
caused by the people who visit
his shop of profiteering. We
want to call the attenion of
the public to the fact that the
shoemaker is now, and always
has been, working on a very I
small margin of profit.
The steady increase in the
price of SOLE-LEATHER has
cut his profits down to such a
low level that the men who
follow the shoe repairing
trad£ can hardly make a re
spectable living.
In the month of November,
1918, at the time of the sign
ing of the armistice, the shoe
maker was paying for prime
OAK LEATHER eleven pound
blocks, $12.50 a' dozen, and
today he is paying $21.50 for
the same stock.
The cost of labor has ad
vanced in nine months $10.00
per week and a reduction in
working Lours from 54 hours
to 48 hours per week, which
gives us an average increase
on material and labor of 125
per cent. Therefore, under
these trying conditions, the
shoemakers are forced to ad
vance the prices on shoe re
pairing. We are only asking
a 15 per cent increase of the
present price. The increase
went into effect Sept. 8, and is
as follows: Men’s soles sew
ed and heels, $2.25. Ladies
soles and leather heels with

rubber caps, $2.25. Ladies’
soles and heels straightened
$1.60. These prices subject
to change without notice. G.
