This change will provide an adequate supply of gas for developments and home home building program which is expected throughout this area. This program will require conâ€" siderable manpower, and the comâ€" pany will need a great number of employees ‘to make the change. Plans have been under way for the two years in prepgration for m.‘ in natural gas, and the large service building just completâ€" ed on Edison court, in Waukegan, will house quite a bit of the new equipment needed for the work It is felt that all communities served by North Shore Gas comâ€" pany will greatly benefit by this that the steps which are now being taken by North Shore Gas comâ€" pany will assure to a large degree the stable growth which has been expected in this section of Illinois.
