Walter J. Hill of Northbrook, and W. G. Rabski, were almost instantly killed at the Golf club crossing in Wilmette Friday morning at 8 o'clock when their automobile truck was de-- molished by a North Shore interur-- ban train travelling more than fifty miles an hour. The accident took place on the Skokie Branch. Although the automobile was de-- molished Kessie says the force of the crash was not sufficient to jolt the passengers on the train from ©their geats. In fact the concussion was felt only slightly. § Carlstrom Rules on Bonds of Treasurer Three Waukegan men, all connect-- ed with the Goldstein Clothing plant Waukegan, were on the train when the crash occurred. They are Sam-- uel Kessie, Joseph Silverstein and Bernard Kammerman. They were on their way to Waukegan at the time. According to Kessie the accident appeared to be due to the slippery condition of the pavement, rather thntflmynullnncoonthourt of the employes. The gate man, he said, waved a stop signal to the occupants of the auto Aand the driver applied his brakes. The me-- chine skidded over the--slippery pave ment however and directly into the path of the speeding train. One of the victims, according to Kessie, was dragged nearly one and a bhalf blockse before he was dropped, eru::d and bleeding, beside the tracks. -- TWO KILLED WHEN SPEEDING TRAIN DEMOLISHES AUTO Three Waukegan Men on North Shore Train At the Time of the Accident.

Lillian Mortimer, the author, is one of the most successful of present da;> writers for the amateur stage. There was a capacity audience of nearly 700 people to greet the players of "The Path Across the Hill," the S--act play presented by the Lutheran Young People at the higa school last Friday night. Though this was the first performance offered to the gen-- eral public by these players, it never-- theiess may be compared with the best given by amateurs in this com-- munity. The actors were well chosen, the lady members of the cast acting taeir parts especially fine. Miss Florence Toepel, as Zuzu, the negro cook, seem-- ed to be quite at home on the stage, and undoubtedly provoked the most laughter through her genial humor. Another almost flawless piece of act-- ing was done by Miss Esther Zersen as "Grandma". The Path Across Hill Enjoyed by Full House fl'he' heroine, Miss Katierine Kub-- lank, won her way into all hearts as a heroine should do. "Lutie" and "Flo" by Misses Emily and Edith QG@chwandt, were excellent portrayals of a young country miss and a city flapper. ~ William Zersen gave a sympathetic rendering of the young man who, in his passionate desire to obtain jus-- tice, found the pati across the hill too steep and became softened by love. Ernest Knutsen, as "Grandpa", acted one of the most difficult parts of the play creditably. a l The reckless young brother, "the most worrisome chile that ever et a watermelon", was vividly played by Harold Peterson. Harold Brumm seem-- ed more convincing as the: disappoint-- ed husband than'as the ardent lover. Richard Litchfield, as Zuzu's caoice, reflected the merriment of his happy wife.
