judort in the carnival parade for costume i6ta photo rock woods carnival again huge success these shoes aint meant for walking i ant ture it i agreed that one of the moil graceful facets of today fashions la that of womens shoes although ihe snub nosed shoe tripped out of the style swing for a year or two and the graceful and delightfully feminine pointed toe took over giving madam a more ladylike look in ladies shoe wear the pendulum has swung its full circle and according lo ihe latest fashion report la femme fatal will be wearing the tailored look in flalnosed shoes once again this summer there will of course be just as many varieties of texture in materials alligator lizard and snake skin have always been must in every girls wardrobe coming complete with matching handbag these may be purchased at the more exclusive boutiques or ladies specialty shoe shops silks corduroy and plastics ate being shown in all shades and colours hat look like patent materials leathers finely textured and corrugated in a word any type of shoe material possible will be on the market this year awaiting damsels of all agesat price because we are not unfortunately of bohemian ancestry it is considered neither conventional practical or even good taste lo appear at a cocktail party clad in bare feet although i do know that there are those of us who delight in kicking off shoes and doing housework in such nudity does the woman exist however who dots not have neatly itnhed in her shoe rack a particular pair or highheeled tool appaifcl which the takes out on only the most special occasion lo wear with her prettiest party frock well dials fine nothing but nothing makes a pair of female gams look quite as gorgeous as a pair of pivotheeled black patent pumps set off with sheer black nylons high heeis look great on all ferrule creatures and can be worn by the very slim as well as those suffering from excess avoirdupois they can be flattering interesting sexy or downright hazardous depending on the ability of die wearer to balance oneself prrperly it all come down to experience of course and sometimes the sixteen year old in her first pair of high heeled shoes can prove quite a hazard and is often ihe victim of many amused chuckles from amazed fathers nostalgic mothers and ornery little brothers right now my beef is about the really high stiletto type heel that literally keeps one nailed to the ground at a summer social garden party when dressed in best summer attire the fair damsel experiences that special terror of having her shoes sink deep into the toft turf rather like a sprinter at takeoff position at an outdoor athletic meet it is usually at this point that the delighted hostess says id like to introduce you to and as you reach out your hand and step forward your legs break off at the ankle because they have been clamped into the ground by your pivot heels my own irregular church attendance has been somewliat thwarted because of the hiking difficulty i must consider before each trip up an untidewalked lull on a sunday morning i am certain that the lawn on which this particular ecclestical building is situated is literally festooned with small pivot holes having been inadvertently put there by females like myself in an endeavour to glam up their church appearance in high stilletto heeled shoes jolly good for the dew worms i would expect they can simply slither through these innumerable woman made passageways to the earths surface when requiring a breath of spring air being a creature of habit i recently had occasion to again arrive late at a rather social tea parly the hostess was ingenious enough to cover the usually fatal black iron register with a twelve by sixteen sheet of navy plastic sheeting in her endeavour lo saleguard the thoet of her guests by the time of my arrival the proceedings were in full swing and so i was attempting to walk unobtrusively into use room in an effort to reach my table unidentified as a lale arrival the hostess beamed at me and hurried over to hug her welcome and as i shyly made my entrance to did the twelve by sixteen sheet of navy plastic which by this time had graduated to five feet by ten feet but was adhering manaclngly to my daintily pointed stiletto lieel standing still i did the old cricket routine of running one foot close to the other in a quiet but valumt attempt to free my restricted limb without public display of my predicament feeling somewhat like a character sketch in an i love lucy show i finally managed to unhitch my foot from the shoe the shoe from the sheeting and replace the shoe back onto the foot without losing complete aplomb the hostesss frozen grin was matched only by my own as i handed her back the piece of navy blue plastic sheeting and the muttered her thanks now high heels are not completely without their uses a police female protection bulletin recently published its findings and in it aid that one of the most lethal weapons a woman has on her person in case of dire emergency is that of the common high heel one blow with this deadly ttdetlo landing on the right area of his temple can literally paralyse a man of very huge proportions a recent publication on hazards entailed in buses and heavily crowded city street can mentioned the jostled shoeclad lady of fashion happening to land her menacing stiletto heel hard on tomeones delicate tibial nerve in the foot inducing paralytic spasms which coul irreparable damage and so it it despite their defensive advantages i halelust recently scrapped all dencded scratched heeled and beat up replicas of the ladylike era or the pointed toe stiletto heel and my boudoir shoe rack sports only the flat low and serviceable type of footwear but i still feel a litle saddened when upon glancing at a local newspapers elite events column i notice that my friend hostess has had several parties lately to which i have not been invited icaie iiduu u hale just not even the rain which fell during the latter part of the afternoon last saturday could dampen the exubersnce of rockwoods carnival committee tie sixth annual carnival was a stupendous success and everyone there said it was great die parade was not as long as in other yean said one pioud patron of ihe day but live carnival itself was larger with more booths there was more vaiiely and everyone liad a good time the highlight of the afternoon was a certain princess lljoidls a romany gypsy lady who actually did lead palms and tell fortunes she was absolutely marvellous was the reaction of her clientelle and her addition to the fair was one of great appeal iter barker assistant john clark costumed in garish attire added to the atmosphere of the mystics profession as he hammings et rockwood
