mm ■ .>:»'■ ■ t&%: #*■ THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 17, 1918 ELECTRIC TRAINS RUSHED < FOOD TO TOWNS IN STORM Despite a raging blizzard and six- foot snow drifts, the Chicago, North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad main- tained train service and kept the towns between Wilmette and Wau- kegan from being isolated. After the steam lines had been compelled to discontinue, the electric line kept north shore residents from being completely cut off from each other and from Chicago. Several towns south of Waukegan were saved from a meatless Sunday by the electric road. With the steam roads blockaded, the electric line de- livered an express car carrying eight tons of dressed meat to these towns. ^Although schedules were disar- ranged for a time, a small army of sjhovelers was put to work clearing the tracks and a half-hourly service was maintained between Wilmette and Waukegan. In addition to its regular patrons, the electric line had to carry those persons who ordinarily travel on the steam roads. Willett to Speak. Dr. Herbert L. Willett of the Uni- versity of Chicago, will speak at the Sunday Evening Club this week. His subject will be "The Heart of' Asia." NEW TRIER TOSSERS WIN FROM DEERFIELD FIVES Basketball dopesters have placed New Trier high school with the quin- tet from Evanston as the most likely teams to cop the honors in the Su- burban High School League race this fall for the championship. Both of these teams have showed to good advantage in their opening practice games and in all of their sessions they have been returned winner with an overwhelming score to their credit. The New Trier heavyweights ad- ministered a hearty wallop to Deer- field at the local gym last week, win- ning, 54 to 5. The New Trier majors continued their record of star de- fensive work, limiting Deerfield s tossers to one field goal. Moore at center, and the Pattison brothers at forward proved too fast for the losers. The lightweight battle was won by New Trier after a hard fi,ght, 20 to 19. Beach of New Trier was the hero of the contest snatching victory from Deerfield when he registered a field basket in the last two minutes of the game. Olsen of the losers feat- ured with long shots and he was the scoring star of the game. \ [OFFICIAL PUBLICATION] Report ot Condition of The First National Bank of Wilmette at Wilmette, In the State of Illinois, at the close of business ori December 31, 191'" RESOURCES Loans and discounts $201,297.5« Overdrafts ........ 94-26 Liberty Loan Bonds, unpletlg-ed .......$14,760.00 Liberty Loan Bonds, nledtred to secure deposits . ...... . 4,000.00 18,760.00 Bonds other than U.
