THE FOOT-PLATE.—The shape and arrangement of the foot-plate in the BRZER Skate is a distinct and important improvement. The foot-plate 80/1:overos the sole and heel clamps that the weight of the skater upon it keeps the clamps til1t to the boot. The foot-plate can be raised by means of its screw adjustment to fit comfortably into the hollow of the foot, thereby supporting the instep, and gripping the entire surface of the boot sole. This gives the skater considerably more purchase and control ovet the skate, keeps the foot warmer, and preserves he shape of the boot. FIGURE SKATERS will find that the "BEZER" Skate follows the ankle more readily, and is as SILENT as a wooden skate.
