The trustees will make a tour of the district with Mr. Edwards next Sunday morning in order to have definite data upon which to base their actions. + Snider-Cazel Co. Makes Extensive Alterations Patrons who stepped into the Snider and Cazel Drug store at 1167 Wilmette avenue this week were immediately aware of the marked change that has been wrought in the appearance of the interior. Particularly true was · this whe.n the visit happened to be made in the evening. A careful observance of the various features of the changes which have been made disclosed that a complete new system of lighting fixtures had been· installed and that the south side of ·the room had been equipped with a new set of modern display cases. These cases are of particular interest because of the lighting system which has been built into them. The lights are placed in the upper front of the case and reflect a soft glow of light down upon the contents. A new line of toilet articles has been placed on display in one of the cases while a complete line of sport articles grace another. A perfume display is contained in a third case.
