This article appeared in the April 15, 1937 paper announcing the remodel of Kidd's Shoe Store by V.A. Norris and H.J. Field.

   Before purchasing the present Kidd's Shoe Store from A.C. Taylor in 1907, C.M. Kidd had been in the shoe business in Walden, N.Y., his birthplace.

Impressed with the hustle and boom of Medford during the days when each train arrival brought new people and new capital and pear and apple orchards were being planted everywhere, he bought the store and immediately adopted the now well-known, slogan, "Kidd's for Shoes and Shoes for Kids". 

During his long residence in Medford, Mr. Kidd has taken and active part in business and civic affairs. He is retiring from active  management of Kidd's Shoe Store so that he may devote more time to his many varied interests in this city with time for his favorite game of golf on the side.
