Your Spring
Shoes
Where to Buy and What to Wear
THIS question would be easily answered if
understood perfectly the splendid am
monto mo marld fnv nnr plistnmprs
you
ange-
our customers this
spring.
Our shelves are loaded down with all the newest
and best styles in footwear, for every member of the
family. Not only will you find at our store the sea-
son's latest styles, but you will find our stock complete
in sizes and that we can fit you perfectly. A good fit-
ting shoe, you know, will hold its shape much better
and wear longer than one that does not fit.
Please let us urge you not to buy a single pair of
shoes before you come and allow us the
privilege of showing you our splendid styles. We
handle the famous "Star Brand" all-leather shoes,
which we believe is the strongest line on the market.
Remember it is always a pleasure to show our goods
and it never places you under any obligations what-
ever to buy.
R. C. Berry
"Star Brand Shoes Are Better"
They Cost LESS per month.
Few cities in the Southwest have
been so distinctively favored, and
Norman should do everything possible
to show her appreciation.
Don't wait for the ticket committee
of the Chamber of Commerce to look
you up to sell you a ticket. Look them
up, and show your appreciation.

Judge Brett Promoted
Again is the Transcript called upon
to congratulate Judge Rutherford
Brett of this city. He was honored
yesterday by the appointment of
Gov. Williams to the position of As-
sociate Justice of the Oklahoma Su-
preme Court. It was an honor richly
deserved, too; absolutely on merit,
and for good work well performed as
judge on the commission and as as-
sociate judge of Criminal Appeals.
The Transcript and all other friends
of Mr. Brett are sure he will honor-
ably fill the high position.
