The newly opened Shell Service sta- tions in Winnetka and Evanston are the first established along the north shore by the Roxana Petroleum cor- poration. Of particular interest is the Winnetka station at Tower road and Linden avenue. This structure is the work of E. E. Beman, local architect, who incorporated in his plans a number of suggestions put forward by residents of the village. The result is a building which harmonizes with its surroundings and is unusually attractive in general appearance. The Evanston station at Sherman avenue and Greenwood boulevard is al- so modern in every respect and is equipped with grease racks for crank case and differential service. The needs of the Shell North Shore Service station chain will be supplied from the new Roxana refinery at East Chicago, Ind., which has a daily present capacity of 16,000 barrels of crude oil. The bulk depot now under construction on Dempster street, near the Alward Bros. coal yard, will handle the local distribu- tion.

ROYAL TAIIORED CIOTHES ARE Guarantee You like to dress well. You DELIGHTS OBSERVER Member of North Shore Group Gives Impressions of Event Staged by Cook County Girls The Cook County Girl Scout Pageant, this year, was given in memory of Mrs. Juliette Low, founder of the Girl Scout movement in the United States. It was held Saturday, April 13, at the Chicago Riding club, which was an especially suitable place because of the wonderful horses avail- able as a feature of the event. The pageant was attended by many north shore Scouts. The pageant takes us back to the days of King Arthur amd his knights. Sir Galahad is trying to find someone who will carry on his ideals. The years pass and in the year 1912, a Girl Scout comes to Sir Galahad and tells him of the Girl Scout ideals of honor. loyalty to God and country, helpfulness to others and purity in all things. He tells her to go and to return when she has proven these ideals. In a few years she returns with many Girl Scouts, and again she asks to carry his banner of ideals. He then gladly grants that the Girl Scouts may carry his banner into the future. This part of the program showed that Girl Scouting has come from the past. The "Color Ceremony," "Building of Better Homes" in which various merit badges were represented, "Folk Danc- es," and "A Camper's Dream," shows that Girl Scouting is living today. The presentation of the Golden FEaglets, the highest award in Girl Scouting, makes us realize that Girl Scouting will live in the future. Below is a poem that was written by an observer of the pageant, entitled, "A Visitor's Impression." It was a wonderful affair, Filled with beautiful sights; All about Sir Galahad, King Arthur and his knights.
