In 1903, gas mains were laid as far as Roger Williams avenue in Ravinia. Glencoe was the next comâ€" munity to have gas service, receiyâ€" ing it in 1905.

These cooking schools were held in the spring of 1902. During the ihâ€" tervening years since that date the company has held regular coo schools to acquaint its custo with the latest culinary methods and newest recipes. k §3 Just prior to 1900 a new group purchased the Waukegan Gas Light Company and proceded not only to improve the.plant and distributi facilities in (Waukegan but to exâ€" tend gas mains to Highland Park. Plans to distribute gas in Hig Park from the company‘s plant Waukegan necessitated the m‘tl ahigh pressure gas line, the fi t{ in the middle west. Low pressure transmission of gas over a long d!s-{ tance was impractical, and the ‘Mth‘ pressure medium came at an opâ€" portune time to solve this distribuâ€" tion problem. t During a period of about 15 years, the Waukegan Gas flfit Company succeeded in surviving the pioneering obstacles which few new businesses escape. Gas servâ€" ice was not new to other parts of the country, notably in the east vhenmeompcniuhdbmn ing business since early in the 1 century. But in 1885 there were few companies in the middle west.

A small plant was erected, equipment inâ€" stalled, and customers solicited.
