Relieves Traffic

Enough five-ton trucks to make a procession five miles long, each traveling five miles daily, would not transport sufficient fuel to Chicago citizens to take the place of the gas which is now delivered to them silently and cleanly through gas mains laid below the street surface.

Makes for a Clean Chicago

Gas is a clean fuel. It is superior to all other fuels for factory use, and is equally suitable and practical for House Heating Furnaces.

The general adoption of gas for heat in homes and factories will make a clean Chicago and insure a pure, healthy breathing atmosphere.

Thousands of homes and factories now use gas for heat. Do you?

You Can Do It Better with Gas

Get the facts.
