  1. The Care of the Feet

    Share Share Post
    The Care of the Feet.
    All the children nowadays go bare foot in Summer Boots are repaired locally Nearly every man can repair them in my district There are no shoemakers in my district.
    Clogs are worn nowadays They are not made locally. There were more shoemakers in former times than at present because there are more shop stores now.
    There is no special use for the water that feet are washed in
    Most men buy shop boots and some get special boots made by shoemakers in the adjoining districts
