! 18 WINNETKA TALK October 10, 1925 A Lesson in Fire Prevention ~ The John Evans pictured above, Victor C. Carlson's latest contribution to Eyanston's fireproof buildings is a glorious example of the very latest steps in' construction that insures protection against fire. { This structure when completed will be the north shore's largest and finest apartment building where residents can feel securely protected against the 'hdzards and horrors of fire. Sturdy solid concrete columns, floors reinforced with steel and fire tile walls stand as an impregnable barrier to fire. The garage portion of The John Evans in addition to being entirely fireproof is surrounded by walls 18 inches thick and covered by the 10 inch solid con- crete and steel floor of the English basement. As additional fire prevention protection the garage will be equipped with a complete automatic sprinkler system with outlets every 10 feet each way. As evidence of the exceptional fireproof qualities of The John Evans, the insurance underwriters have granted the unusually low rate of only 19 cents a hundred, it is said. A Modern North Shore Kitchen Above is a view of the kitchen in a modern Winnetka home. The out- standing features are its roominess, its sanitary aspect and equipment, and the modern Kitchen Aid machine which is seen at the right. The housewife can now mix, beat, stir, whip, slice, chop, grind, chip ice, freeze, in fact do all of the tedious mechanical work in the preparation of delicious foods all by electricity, with the aid of this modern machine, at a cost of less than one cent per hour. This time and labor-saving machine is the most competent of housemaids. That is why Kitchen Aid is to be found in an ever-growing percent- age of modern North Shore kitchens. Its success in communities like this has earned for it the endorsement of all the leading household magazines of the country: "Good Housekeeping," "Ladies Home Journal," and others. "Now the household does not seem able to get along without KitchenAid" Photo by Stanton Wilhite, Winnetka says Mr. C. R. Crane of the Crane Co. There are many other homes on the North Shore equipped with this mod- ern labor saving machine. Among them are the homes of Mrs. Wallace Templeton, Glencoe, Mrs. Poff, Win- netka, Mrs. Gertrude Bemis, Winnetka, Mrs. C. J. Bickl, Wilmette, Mrs. An- drew McNally, Evanston, Mrs Mason Warner, Winnetka. These are only a few of scores of North Shore owners.
