WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1919 f New Trier High Novis ee \ Waukegan went down for the count Saturday afternoon on the local field when New Trier, aided considerably by the brilliant playing of Ted Richards, romped away with a 49-0 game. ' Richards was in the limelight dur- ing the entire game. He finished with five touchdowns, a field goal, and four goals from touchdown to his credit. Of course Ted was blessed with good interference and received timely aid from MacLean and Wright, not mentioning several other worthies. Bob Wienecke was also con- spicuous by his snappy work. Bob hit the Waukegan line so hard at times that he teft it in a dazed con- dition at the end of the pastime. Deerfield will oppose the Big Black team Saturday afternoon in the first league game. All dope points to a Black victory if one can draw any conclusions after scanning the re- spective scores of Deerfield and New Trier in their Waukegan game.

The New Trier boys were in a fighting mood and won easily, 10-0. Oak Park will be the opponent for this week.

If so, ask yourself the question, "Why?" Many people have a constant scowl caused solely by eyestrain. This is often so dishguring that it doesn't matter how attractive the person otherwise appears -- the scowl speils 1t all. In most cases scowls can be "smoothed" out by relieving the eyestrain. If you have any symp- toms of eyestrain you should let us examine your eyes at once. Don't wait until ugly lines ap- pear between the eyes. A.

His name is Gas. There is no limit to the amount of work he can shoulder. 'But like any other great force he must have keepers to see that he is always on the job. The Giant Keepers are the men who have put their money into the property and the gas company employees,--at the plant on the distribution system, in the office. They are all instrumental in delivering the service of gas, the giant, to our 12,200 customers. The Job of Keeping Gas in Harness and constantly traveling along Good Serv- ice Road is not an easy one. The employees of the gas company must be capable of meeting all emergencies in a manner that saves the consumer from even knowing that the Giant Keepers are having trouble with the Giant. This Means that Money Must be Ob- tained from outside. sources when revenue from gas sales fails to cover expenses of providing service. The North Shore Gas Company has had to face that situation for many months during the last two years. Tho the income from the sale of gas has not paid the cost of the business, the money has been borrowed to make up the losses and keep the standard of service on the high level demanded by the public. During the Period of Scarcity and high cost of materials and money, the men responsible for the property have found it extremely difficult at times to maintain all the equipment on a basis which insures Good Service--always. But it has been done in spite of difficulties. Keeping the Giant and Making of Him a Willing and capable public servant is the Gas Company's livelihood. That the public is thoroughly alive to the High standards-of Gas Service the company should maintain we know from experience. That the Public should be just as thoroughly alive to the needs of the Giant Keepers is nothing more or less than fair. Good service, honestly provided on the part of the Gas Company-- fair compensation for the service on the part of the Public--that is a balance that must be maintained in order that the Giant may be always equal to his huge task. - The North Shore Gas Company has but one Goal in view--To provide gas service that pleases the public, at a Yair and honest profit. That is the course of Good Service Road. . The next statement of this series will appear in this newspaper next week.
