And families of means have established their fine country estates in this picturesque vicinity. But most Chicago families, much as they would like to, could not hereto- fore consider living in this ideal home locality, and for one reason: the absence of adequate fast transporta- tion. To these people, then, and to thousands of others, the new extension of the North Shore Line Railroad brings welcome news. An existing arm of the North Shore Line, serving the towns of Mundelein and Libertyville in the Lake County Countryside, has already been double tracked. Early in 1926 the new Skokie Valley Division, connecting with the Mundelein - Libertyville division, will be completed, affording fast, frequent, through service to downtown Chicago. Mundelein and Libertyville are estab- lished towns, with good schools, stores, churches and all modern home con- veniences. These ideal home com- munities offer you all the allurements of the country plus the home comforts of a large city.
