WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1922 WERE SLIPPING PROF. GRANT SYS Discusses the North Shore Geology Do you know anything about your own back yard or your front yard either for that matter? You know about the shrubbery and the lawn and the ant hills and in spots you may know what is down below, eight or ten inches, where you have spaded up a patch for a flower or vegetable gar- den. But do you know what is away down below anything you have ever seen? The geological formation of the North Shore district together with its history as far back as time goes will be described in a public lecture given this week by Professor U. S. Grant of the Department of Geology of the Northwestern university. Professor Grant said in part: "The present physical setting of any district is a result of the operation of a long series of geological proces- ses which began many millions of years ago and have continued unin- terruptedly to the present time. In tracing the history of the district hereabout, we find that below us are many hundreds of feet of sedi- mentary rocks which consist of sand- stones, shales, and limestones. These were deposited eons ago in the same manner as sand, mud, and limestone are being deposited in the ocean to- day. After the laying down of these rocks, and still earlier than the age of the great coal beds of the southern half of the state, the district was ele- vated above sea level and has probab- ly remained above sea level ever since. "Comparitively recently in geolog- jecal times a great ice sheet moving from the north brought enormous quantities of debris and spread it over the bed rock. This material is known as glacial drift and varies In thickness from nothing where the bed rock comes to the surface, as at Stony Island, to 300 feet or even more. After the melting of this great ice sheet a lake, called Lake Chicago, covered the area now occupied by the North Shore and flowed out through the present location of the drainage canal to the Illinois river. The shorelines and the beaches of this old lake are evident in many places here. This lake had a rather complicated history, and later all of the great lakes went through a series of changes; for 3 time their waters flowed out through the Mohawk and down the Hudson; later they went into Canada, past Que- bec and Montreal, and then to the ocean; still later they took the pres- ent line of flow down the St. Lawrence. These changes were due to the re- treat of the great ice sheet and to the fact that all of the Great Lake Re- gion has been tilted bodily toward the south-south-west, and the tilting is going on today." Too Busy to Wait for That Shoreen Building With construction work barely com- pleted on the new and spacious Shoreen Motor Car Corporation build- ing at 2524 West Railroad avenue, Tvanston, business has maintained at such a pace that it has been found necessary for the proprietors to in- stall, immediately, $5,000 worth of genuine Foré parts. The Shoreen Ford car display salon and service station was built over and around a small temperary frame struc- ture and business was never interrup- ted. The big opening of the modern structure is an event®of the near fu- ture. It Would Appear "Andy" Is a Wee Bit Homesick Though "American dollars are as big as phonograph records" from the viewpoint of the European, Andrew Hostnick, who, with his wife and a party of friends, is engaged in an ex- tended motor tour of the continent, says '"there's no place like home" in a communication to the Winnetka Talk Mr. Hostnick will be remembered as the energetic representative of the Winnetka Motor company. Mr. and Mrs. George K. Spencer, 703 Waldon road, returned Monday from Blue Lake, Wis., where they have been spending a vacation. UNIQUE STYLE SHOP WILMETTE Always the newest and most select styles.
