M. to 7:45 P. M., including Sundays Watch for Our Special T hanksgiving Dinner Come There's Automatic Safety Devices Installed by North Shore Line A new type of automatic electrically- operated safety gate, which is said to have proved highly successful in prac- tical tests at three locations on the Chicago, North Shore and Milwaukee railroad, will be installed at twenty- six additional crossings on that road between Niles Center and Racine, it is announced by John R. Blackhall, general manager. The following towns on the Shore I.ine route will receive this additional crossing protection: Lake Bluffs Fort Sheridan, North Chicago, Waukegan, Zion, Kenosha and Racine. In addi- tion the following crossings on the Skokie Valley route will be equipped with the automatic gates: Main street, Niles Center road, Glenview road, Wil- low road, Dundee road Deerfield road and Deerpath avenue. "These automatic safety gates fur- nish as nearly perfect crossing protec- tion as human ingenuity has yet made possible," said Mr. Blackhall in an- nouncing this move to increase the safety of North Shore line grade crossings. "The approaching train it- self operates the gates by closing an electric track circuit, which is ar- ranged so that warning is given by both bells and lights at least 35 seconds ahead of a train at the highest speed operated. In our practical tests the circuit was completed by approaching trains when 2,200 feet from the cross- ings. "Failure of a veliicle to stop will not result in these gates being destroyed when the arms are down, as the barriers swing around parallel to the road when struck. Springs in the gate posts then automatically re- turn the arms to normal upright posi- tion. Possibility of power failure was the only obstacle to overcome. This is guarded against by having two and in some locations three sources of power available. The North Shore Line management is confident that these automatic gates will greatly in- crease public security by eliminating grade crossing hazards wherever they are installed." Capt. MacMillan Speaks at Field Museum Today Captain Donald B. MacMillan, noted Arctic explorer, and leader of the two Rawson-MacMillan Subarctic Exposi- tions of Field Museum, in 1926 and 1927-28, will give a free illustrated lec- ture, "Under the Northern Lights," Saturday, November 24, at Field Mu- seum of Natural History.
