Serving 100,000 Meals 2 Year on Dining, Cars North Shore Line takes you direct to where you want to go in Chicago -- North Side, Loop, orSouth Side. Save time and bus fare. HALE a million candy mints for North Shore Line patrons. That is what we distributed on dining cars last year. These complimentary mints-- six in a package -- have become an established feature of our dining car service. Dining cars on the North Shore Line were introduced in 1917. Today we operate dining cars on twelve trains daily -- six trains in eac direction. With the delivery of additional cars in June, our investment in dining cars alone will be $330,000. Maintaiping a dining car service of North Shore Line standard is a costly proposition. Chinaware, table linen and quadruple-plate sil- ver for a single car cost $1,000. Our monthly laundry bill alone is $900. Foods are selected with as much care as you would exercise for your own table. We buy the best creamery butter--milk and cream--fruits, vegetables, meats and other foods. Fresh eggs come to us daily from the farm. North Shore Line steaks have become justly famous. Every steak we buy is a specified weight and a specified cut; those showing any variation are rejected. It is an interesting fact that from one-third to one-half of all patrons order these choice steaks. Our coffee -- a special blend -- brings us daily compliments. 106,000 cups were served last year. You are welcome to a second or third cup--oOr as many extra cups as you want---- with out charge. Each patron at breakfast is greeted with a complimentary demi tasse. Back of our dining car service is a commissary employing eight people. Two motor trucks are kept busy in its exclusive service. Foods and supplies are bought by the commissary. All pies and pastry are baked in the commissary kitchen. Nearly 100,000 people are fed during the course of a year on North Shore Line dining cars.

Three regulars from the championship squad are back again and two experienced golfers are making a bid for the fourth position. Don Heppes will captain the team this year. Schultz and Larsen who starred last year, will be regulars again. Miller, a sophomore who won last year's freshman meet, is a strong candidate for a position. The other promising candidate is Stearns, a former Princeton man, who is now eligible for competition. The first meet of the season is with Notre Dame at South Bend, April 24. Following is the schedule for the coming season: Notre Dame--April 24--South Bend. Illinois--May 1--Champaign. Purdue--May T7--Evanston, Wisconsin--May 13--Evanston. Michigan--May 20--Evanston.
