The heels are so much higaer. there is so much more curve under Ue Instep and the toes are so much more pointed. The low heels and broad soles on the common-sense plan will never go out of style for people who want to walk and who are more or less conservative. There is always the danger that this style of footwear will become too pronounced and eccentric but there is a happy medium to be found; the flat, broad sole has been rather overdone for the last few years. Almost all American women have high insteps, and the perfectly flat last is not comfortable, and certainly not becoming. colonial The present styles of ties and slippers are very becoming.
