METROPOLITAN STAR
 GIVES FINE CONCERT
Emilio de Gogorza Charms Large Audience in Grammar School Hall
(By Herald ReNieWer)

Emilio De Gogorza, baritone wit h the Metropolitan Opera company, gave several hundred local music lov- CTS a genuine treat last evening when he appeared at the Grammar school hall In selected concert given un- der the auspices of the New Britain Teachers club.
 MT. De Gogorza was accompanied by Miss Helen M. Winslow and their program was one which gave evidence of having been chosen with care and offered a wide range of interpreta- lions, giving the star a good oppor- tunity to display his rare vocal tal- cnts. Mr. De GOgorza was in good voice last evening. He is an ideal concert artist and his work would be hard to improve upon. His stalwart physique, the rich qualities of his voice and the fiery emotion of his delivery, so secure in it's perfect training, stamps him as one of the world 's' leading baritones.
 The opening selection was E'Where Fer You Walk" followed by The Three Ravens and ''NNhen Dull Care all of which were rendered well. The second part of the program included "'rhe Isle" and Tn Silent N The Wounded Birch" by Gretchan- inof. I'm the later the singer was un- usually good, the finesse and warmth of his interpretation giving great pleasure to his listeners.
 Listening to MT. De Gogorza's $ Span ish songs, the audience was pleased at the sweep of his tones and the ex- hilarating sureness with which he or1tn al iI lr(,' "Noch Serena and "En Calesa" were typical Spanish and Mexican songs
 dered the we'll known and always popular La Paloma," his audience sat spellbound, only to break into a din of applause as he concluded An other song which scored heavily was the Ariosa: *'Leroi de Lahore" by Massenet. Requiem, by Sidney Homer: "Old Loves,' by Cyril Scott; At the Postern Gates" by Gena Branscombe, and 'Invictus,' by Bru- no Huhn, concluded the program. For a final encore, with which the singer acknowledged the warm ap- plause that greeted his work, Car men'' was chosen. The singer car ried his listeners along with him throughout this whole piece and dur ing the ToreaGor song he was prob ably at his best

ECZEMA CAUSED YEARS
 OF INTENSE AGONY

II have suffered intense agony from eczema on my leg and other parts of my body for years, and received only temporary. relief from other preparations It is only q month since I started to use PETERSON'S OINTMENT, and there is no sign of eczema or itching. You can refer to me"-Geo. C. Talbot, 27 Penfield St., Buffalo. N. Y.
 I've got a hundred testimonials, says Peterson, of Buffalo, just as sim cere and honest as this one. Years ago. when I first started to put out PETERSON'S OINTMENT, I made up my mind to give a big box for 36 cents and l am still doing it, as every druggist in the country knows.
 I guarantee PETERSON'S OINT- MENT because I know that its mighty healing power is marvellous. I say to every one who buys a box that it is rigidly guaranteed for eczema, salt rbeum, old sores, blind, bleeding and itching piles, ulcers, skin diseases. chafng, burns, scalds and sunburn, and if not satisfactory any druggist will return your money" -.sl,-.r.. ..e..

LYCECM THEATER

Pals First is conceded by press and public locally to be one of the best plays of crookdom that has been seen in this city for long time It is a. comedy in prologue and three acts by Lee Wilson Todd from the novel of the same name by Francis Perry Elliott. There are two ragged and hungry pals of the genus hobo in such an admirable setting as the com- fortablc luxury of a southern country mansion. Bringing out the amusing results of. such a contrast could have been intrusted to no actor better fitted than Claude Kim ball, the new leading man of the Lyceum Players, who is making his first appearance with the players this week. It must not be as- Sumed, however, that the sole appeal of the play is humorous for it has a great deal of good drama, and the in- terest seldom lags Of course Charles Mylott in the role originally played by Thomas Wise, is giving d most con- vincinS portrayal as the pal of Danny, played by MT. Kimball.
 Pals First may be seen every night for the rest of the week and on Saturday matinee. The advance sale is very large, particularly for both performances on Saturday but there are still a few choice seats left. Phone orders may be received and will be held until and D. m. on the day of the performance. The box office is open every day from 10 a. m. until D. m. The managem ent wishes to call attention to the arrangem ent whereby patrons of the Lyceum may have the same seats reserved for them each week by placing their names on the list at the box office. Many people Of the city have taken advantage of this arrangement and are regular patrons at the Lyceum each week

 First of all watch out for waste. There's one member in our family who likes his tea very sweet, d sat urated solution as it were. This is a waste of sugar.
 Use honey and warm biscuits in place of a sweet dessert. Honey is rather expensive to use in cakes and buildings.
 Dates, figs, sweet prunes and raisins contain much sugar and are delicious In buildings.
 Maple sirup and maple sugar are scarce and high at this time of year but are available.
 Corn sl'up is less sweet and cannot be used without sugar or honey
 And of course there's molasses, In using molasses or honey for baking, use also from 1-4 to 1-2 teaspoon of soda to neutralize the acid found in them
