BAEHR OF GLENCOE WITH GAS C0 Elected Vice-President North Shore Concern at Recent Meeting. IN CHARGE OF OPERATING Reorganization of Service Will Be Made With View To Furnishing Ample and Continued Gas. The president of the North Shore Gas Company, Mr. George F. Good- now, has resigned his office and his son, Mr. Albert C. Goodnow, has also resigned general manager: The company has elected to fill these offices Mr. Everett IL. Millard of Highland Park as its president, and Mr. William A. Baehr of Glencoe as its vice-president in charge of opera- tions and as its consulting engineer. Mr. Millard has been identified with the company as its general counsel for several years, but Mr. Baehr is a new man in the company, although he has been in the public utility business and particularly in the gas business for a great many years and is a consulting engineer and gas man of prominence and long expefience. Mr. Baehr's election brings to the company all the ex- perience which he has gathered in his years of engineering and operat- ing practice and it is felt will be of as material assistance to the North Shore Gas company in providing modern, efficient and courteous serv- ice for its many patrons on the North Shore. He has recently served the Village of Winnetka as its expert gas engineer in reference to the serv- ice furnished by the North Shore Gas Company to that village and the other towns in the territory and to report in general on gas service con- ditions in these communities, so he is already familiar with the plant and system to a very large extent. The North Shore Gas company states that it is the intention of these officials to take all the steps neces- sary to promptly and rapidly bring its plant to the highest state of ef- ficiency and to lay such mains and so safeguard its distribution system that the supply of gas will be not only of constant good quality, but in ample volume and pressure for all consumers at all times. It is the in- tention of these officials to provide the best of gas service to the com- pany's patrons and no stone will be left unturned to accomplish this end. The company is planning to erect in the near future a consider- able addition to its North plant at Waukegan for the purpose of sup- plying sufficient gas for the in- creased demands of the population now and for a considerable period of time to come. This plant will be of the most modern and approved type. mE Ee a Read All the Newspaper. FO EXCHA dala dined GE A two-flat building in Birchwood overlooking the lake.

[ASEYERE OTIS BUILDING -CHICAGO TELEPHONE MAIN 4724 MILAN LUSK'S AMERICAN DEBUT IS MUSICAL EVENT Priemier Violinist of North Shore Captures Hearers At Initial Appearance In Chicago. Sunday afternoon, before an audience that filled Central Music hall, occurred the American debut of Milan Lusk, a young violinist, who, born on the North Shore, has spent the past four years in study and con- cert appearances in Europe. This event, hearalded by a minimum of trumpet-blowing, is an important one in Chicago's musical annals. ' The tall, engaging young player, al- though clearly possessed of individ- uality and temparament, displayed none of the antics of the notoriety- seeker, but devoted himself simply and sincerely to his task. Of his playing it may be said that it is lacking neither in technique, tone nor feeling. Displaying some nervousness in the first number (Bruch's Scotch Fantasie) Mr. Lusk soon found himself, and held the 'audience by sheer beauty of playing, with little display of "fireworks," al- beit of technical facility there was no lack. Mr. Lusk is said to have appeared frequently both with the Prague Philharmonic and with Oscar Hebel's Tonkuenstler (Vienna) Orchestra, and won from the European critics encomiums which seem richly de- served. After the second group--Corelli's La Folia (1653) and Holka Modrooka (Blue-eyed Maiden) the latter ap- parently a variation of a Bohemian song--the young player was forced to give 'an additional number, al- though encores were not the order of the day. At the conclusion of the concert the audience remained to re- call the young player a number of times, and the applause was hearty and prolonged. Mr. Lusk was assisted in his re- cital by Miss Eloise Bedlan, pianist, a talented young miss, who dis- played splendid musicianship and musical feeling for one so young. Her rendition of the Chopin Noc- turne in F was worthy of a far older player, and the Liszt Rhapsody No. 12 was given with assurance and admirable facility.
