P R Y O R P R E S S , C H I C A G O Our May issue feature on the passenger steamer CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS brought to mind the many great vessels operated on Lake Michigan routes by the le­ gendary Goodrich Transit Company. This page from the company's 1925 brochure shows that Goodrich then was operating twelve vessels - four sidewheelers and eight propellors. Those twelve ships ran from Chicago to seventeen des­ tinations, with land and water connections to many more popular places. It was during the previous year that Goodrich had merged with the Graham and Morton Transportation Company, and had taken over the five ships previously operated by "The Dustless Road to Happyland". * * * * * * *
