48 WINNETKA TALK October 16, 1926 GET WATER, SEWER Village Lets Contracts for Improve- ments in Alles and Daughaday Sub- divisions Last Wednesday evening the Village council passed a resolution awarding a contract to the Charles M. Porter company, totalling approximately $150,000, for the construction of under- ground utilities primarily to serve the two extensive new developments near Crow Island wooded park owned by Messrs C. Colton Daughaday and | Hamilton Daughaday, and the Alles family. The water system is the consumma- tion of a plan thoroughly and carefully worked out by Windes and Marsh, vil- lage engineers, in consultation with Frank D. Chase, Inc., consulting en- gineers, for the improvement of water service of the western part of Win- netka. Many of the present mains in Winnetka's western streets are 4-inch ["dead ends." A ten-inch water main | will now extend from Tower road to | Hill road, a distance of 1% miles, with many intercepting pressure loops.

In response to the ever increasing demand for our unexcelled family laundry services, we have added another delivery truck to our present North Shore fleet of three. The big reason for our increased patron- age is because hundreds of North Shore housewives have found a few words on the telephone or to Bill the Washington Laundry Man results in a New Day a week for them--and the removal of Washday from their calendar forever.

A more flexible service is thus obtained resulting in a better and steadier flow. Better fire protec- tion is assured for the entire western section of the village as water may be obtained from two directions at the same time. The Daughaday property and the Alles subdivision, which are now be- ing opened up as a fine residence dis- trict, will be served by sanitary sewers connecting with the great intercepting sewer of the Sanitary District of Chi- cago, which traverses those properties. This sewer leads to Evanston and the Chicago drainage canal. The sewer averages 19 feet in depth through the Daughaday property, The successful bidder for the con- tract, Charles W. Porter company, has had forty years experience, and a fine record on very important work of similar character along the north shore. The contract calls for the work to be finished, sewer and water installed and working, on December 15, 1926. Mrs. Frank Anderson of 910 Spruce street, Worthy Matron of the Winnet- ka chapter of the Eastern Star, has returned after spending several days in Springfield, attending the sessions of the Grand chapter of the Eastern Star.

Unseen Sources of Long Life The basic sources of automobile value are not always apparent to the eye. A motor car, like a house, may LOOK a great deal more substan tial than it really is. Because of this difficulty, more and more thousands are turning to Dodge Brothers product for insurance against disappointment. The years have proved, and each year proves anew, that Dodge Brothers are as deeply concerned with the UNSEEN goodness of their motor car as with the seen. The mileage it will deliver, the safety it will provide, the expense and trouble it will save the owner over a period of years, are quite as im- portant to Dodge Brothers as the more obvious details of equipment and style, Touring Car - - - §$ 860.0c Coupe - die. 912.00 Sedan - - - - - 965.00 Special Sedan - - - 1,017.50 Delivered WERSTED MOTOR CO. 562 Lincoln Avenue V Winnetka 165 Winnetka Doncee BROTHERS MOTOR CARS ----
