Gates Natural Leader One of these men is Henry B. Gates, president of the association and di- recting genius of the north shore de- partments of the Illinois Telephone Company. Mr. Gates is a resident of Wilmette and has been an active member of the Commercial associa- tion since its inception several years ago.

Mr. Van Deusen has been a north shore business man for almost thirty years, and is regarded by his associates as the great "bal- ance wheel" of the commercial asso- ciation.
