season to the amount of $4,000. Some
OF the resort owners baked at making
any guarantee to the company hold
ing that the permission to use the
roads was sufficient subsidy. The
officials Of the company pointed out
that neither the Waukegan nor the
Lake Geneva bus lines had proved big
paying propositions and they said that
the company was not willing to put
on the busses for the lakes unless
they had some assurance that a part
of the cost of the venture would be
guaranteed
A number of the resort owners
promptly declared their willingness to
purchase transportation to be resold
to their guests but several of the larg-
er resort owners baked at the propo-
sition.
Committee to Outline Routes.
1t was decided to have committee
from the company go into the matter
OF the best route to be chosen. Three
tentative routes have been offered.
One branching off from route so at
Silverlake, through Bassetts, Twin
Lakes, Nippersink golf course, Pow
ers Lake and back on route so at
SHADES Corners; or from Silverlake to
Wilmot, Twin Lakes Park Subdivision,
Twin Lakes, Nippersink Lodge, Pow
ers Lake and SHADES Corners. The
third route would leave the paving at
Salem, pass through Liberty Corners
where connections with traffic from
Cross Lake and Antioch could be
made, Trevor, Wilmot, Twin Lakes
Park Subdivision, Twin Lakes, Nipper-
sink Lodge, Powers Lake and back to
route 30 at SHADES Corners. >.
Nippersink Boosts Proposition.
The most active boosters of the
proposition are Nippersink, Wilmot
and Silverlake and there is keen rival
ry among these places to secure the
bus line. 1t may not be possible to
frame up route which will touch
all of the lakes. The company is anx-
ious to have Twin Lakes on the route
as this is counted on as one of the
most paying stations but this plan is
baked in some ways on account of
the lukewarmness of some of the
leading resort owners at Twin Lakes.
These men declared on Sunday that
they would have no part in providing
a guarantee.
Wilmot and Nippersink leaders were
prompt to declare their willingness
to do their part toward securing the,
guarantee suggested and consider
able amount Of Wilmot's share of it
was subscribed following the meeting
on Sunday.
1t is believed that definite decisions
as the routes to be followed will go
long ways toward getting the guar
antee subscribed. 1t is the plan to
start the service early in Nav and
continue it over the six months per
Tod during which the resorts are open
to the public
Would Open Big Territory.
The plan would open up TO Kenosha
people large territory which is not
now touched by the bus line to Lake
Geneva and it is believed that during
the summer months the service would
prove nearly self supporting. The
company has not suggested any gifts
to it to maintain the service and the
suggestion of the guarantee carried
with it the idea that the people who
bought the transportation would sell
it again. 1t was even suggested that
the transportation might be sold at
a profit by the guarantors.
1t was said that the company plan
ned to establish frequent service be-
tween Kenosha and the lakes and that
the service would be on a par with
the other service rendered by the
North Shore line. Buses ito the lake
regions would connect at Kenosha
with the principal trains of the com
