August 13, 1927 WINNETKA TALK C.and N. W. Will Install New Type Suburban Coaches The Chicago & North Western rail- way new roller bearing suburban coaches were on exhibition Saturday, August 6. Added comfort for Chicago & North Western suburban patrons is assured with the installation of this first complement of the latest "North Western" design suburban coaches equipped with Hyatt bearings. Within two months 120 coaches will be in service; each comfortably seat- ing 98 persons, or one-third more than the old style coaches. Commuters will appreciate the riding comfort of Hyatt bearings which make starting and stopping easier, it is stated. These new, all steel and aluminum coaches are finished in tan walls, cream ceilings and green upholstering. The windows have brass frames al- lowing more glass surface, and the double-acting doors in wide vestibules render passage easy. The electric lighting placed immediately over seats makes reading easier. Roofed and plated with steel-strong aluminum, each coach is ncarly four tons lighter in weight than the old style coaches. They are absolutely fireproof. Health Officer Reports Favorably on Inspection Dr. H. A. Orvis, health officer of Winnetka, reports that the monthly inspection of food handling establish- ments in the village which have been conducted by his department for the past few months, are showing splendid results. There is good response from the food handlers, he says, and a gen- eral tendency upon their part to do everything towards meeting require- ments found to be necessary.
