Make Improvements on Main Office of North Shore Gas Co. Extensive alterations and improve- ments to cost several thousands of dollars are being made at the main office of the North Shore Gas com- pany in Waukegan. Both the front and interior of the present office and those of the adjoining building, which was purchased to provide expansion space, will be altered, provision being made for more commodious display room and office space. The North Shore Gas company has occupied its present quarters for three years. The growth of the company during that period has been such that expansion of office room is necessary to expedite handling the company's affairs. The new office, in addition to occupying the present quarters, will include, as well, the building formerly used by the Waukegan Daily News. Partitions in the old quarters of the newspaper have been removed, and the entire space will be thrown into the gas company's office. The fronts of the two remodeled buildings will present an imposing ap- pearance. Mosaic tan premier brick is being used as a facing for the front. A large display window, where all modern gas appliances may be ex- hibited to best advantage, will be pro- vided on the west half of the front of the present office building. The new entrance will be placed at the former front door of the newspaper. Large windows at the front will make the lower floor well lighted, while many windows on the two upper floors will insure well lighted rooms there. Stanton Fetcher, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin S.
