alton has been incorporated with the

sythe, president; Harry C.. Dorsey,

stock is $4,000, held by IS stockholders
business men of this section. The
object of the association is to handle
and manufacture all dairy products
and milk by-products.
An up-to-date building has just
been completed and the latest i'm
proved machinery installed and actual
operations will begin on Tuesday,
December twenty. A company to
formed, to be known az The Sykes
vile Ice and Refrigerating Company,
which will begin operations as soon
as the machinery can be installed.
1t seems a most propitious time
to start an ice plant, as the water
supply is very low and a great num-
ber of the ice ponds are dry. Under
the system of manufacturing ice that
will be installed, ice can be supplied
in a wholesale way for filling public
and private ice houses az cheaply ae
it could be harvested, and Of much
better quality, being manufactured
from filtered water from an artesian
well.
This is the third manufacturing en-
terprise for Sykesville within the last
thirteen months; large elevator and
-four mill was put in successful op-
Grafton here in November, 1909, which
has been running constantly ever
since, its products Immediately be
coming popular and being shipped to
every part of the state.

Academy of Music.

Sweet Sixteen is the title of the
latest compositions Of the noted conf
poser, Victor Herbert, and of George
V. Hobart, the librettist. The novel
title of "the songplay'' has been given
to Sweet Sixteen" and it will come
as a distinct pleasure to the public
who have grown tired of the constant
supply of so-called musical reviews"
and musical commedies," with i'm
possible commedians and burlesque
scenes, stilted 'showgirls' and girl
les" of uncertain age. The songplay,
Sweet Sixteen" is all that its title
implies; it is charming comedy with
O coherent plot, plausible situations
and most interesting story, embellish-
ed with some of Victor Herbert's
most charming musical compo-
sitions. New Workers have gone
fairly wild with enthusiasm over the
success of Naughty Marietta" with
its pleasing story and delightful music
by Victor Herbert.
The story of Sweet Sixteen" is a
satire on the idle-rich with ambitions
to shine in foreign society, but whose
plans are upset by dainty American
girl of sweet SIXTEEN" who gives her
heart to an American, the man OF her
own choice. The number sixteen"
that appears in the title of the song
play, also forms an important part i'm
the production. There are sixteen
principals in the cast, a chorus of six
teen young and pretty girls, sixteen
song numbers and q medley composed
of sixteen songs taken from Victor
Herbert's most successful operas and
compositions.
Louis F. Gottschalk, who has direct
ed all of Victor Herbert's operas, has
been specially engaged to preside
over the augmented orchestra for the
presentation Of Sweet Sixteen" at
the Academy of Music, Baltimore, for
one week, commencing on Monday
evening.
