WILMETTE FRIDAY DECEMBER 1924 REQUEST "WUimE" LABEL FOR "L" (Continued from page 1) schedule to 36 minutes. Twelve minute service in non-rush hours makes it possible because of the introduction of the shoppers and Sunday specials to reach the downtown district in 36 minutes with through service from Howard to Lyola, Loyola to Wilson avenue and Wilson avenue to Randolph and Wells. The new service is also much safer, it was said. Furthermore, Mr. Moran uplained , all · Evanston-Wilmette trains encircle _the loop, stopping at every loop station ,thus making it .convenient for passengers to alight at any point in the shopping and business center. . If patrons will adapt themselves to ·our twelve-minute non-rush hour tchedule, they will find the service a vast improvement over the previous express service which required many 1t9ps and, obviously, a longer operating time to the loop. There is the same frequent rush-hour service as has obtained continuously for year§.

This, of course. also applies to passengers bound for stations on the Wabash avenue side 'of the loop which skirts the shopping center. Mr. Maran stated that the Howard avenue station platform is to be provided with a heated enclosure for the accommodation of passengers who change from Howard to Wilmette trains at that point. In requesting that the sign "Wilmette' be placed on Linden avenue bound trains, it was explained that much confusion arises over the fact that visitors and strangers coming to Wilmette cannot know that they must take an Evanston "L" in order to reach the village. Following has be,~n cited as a typical dialogue: Why, you take an Evanston train ." "How do I get to Wilmette?" "Yes, but where do I get off?" "When you get to the end of the line, you're in Wilmette." "Why don't you call them Wilmette trains if your town is the terminus, etc., etc. Royal Arch Muons Hold Man Winter Provides Installation Ceremonies Lesson in Rink Building ···Old. Man Winter this week showed the Village authorities just how to proceed to establish excellent ice skating facilities .
