Miss Anna F'isziu First
'Fosca of N. Y. Season
MIR. Ciceoiini's Mario a Crude
Performance; Mr.. yeile
Accountable as Searpia

Miss Anna Fltziu was the first Tosea
of the season last evening at the Cen
tury Theater in the second perform
ance by the San Carlo Opera Company.
Her impersonation, familiar one, has
many amiable characteristics, and she
avoids the sensational, although her
conception OF the role is not lacking in
intensity.
Crudeness was the distinguishing fea-
ture of Mr. Ciccolinis Mario He
sinned repeatedly against the Waws Of
song, but his vocal shortcomings were
mild in comparison to the awkward
ness of his general demeanor. What is
to be said for an Italian tenor who,
having relieved tho beauteous Flora of
her cane, plants that object firmly
against the statue of the Madonna =?
Surely, Mr.. Ciccolin should be better
versed in the etiquette to be observed
in church. Nor did the possible per-
turbation caused by the presence of
Floria excuse the breach. 1t may be
said in passing that MIR. Ciecolini was
not in good voice.
Mr. Valle's Scarpia was acceptable
He sang and acted as one well versed
in the traditions of the operate stage
The repertoire for next week will be
as follows: Monday "Cavalleria Rusti-
cana" and "Pagliacci"; Tuesday, ia
Boheme'; Wednesday, LA For2a del
Destino"; Thursday matinee, "The
Tales of IIoffmsn'; Thursday evening,
"Aida"; Friday, Lucia; Saturday mat
inee, "Madama Butterfly" Saturday
evening, Carmen"

Some time ago, in order to get the

Observation-Disclosures
Fifty Years
on one job

NN September 7th I completed my 5oth year as
" milk distributor in New York City. At II
I years of age drove milk wagon about the
Streets dipping the milk from the open cans according
to the prevailing custom.
Milk standards at that time very low. Milk
distribution methods were as primitive as those
employed by the first milk man. Milk cleanliness was
talked about but not seriously demanded There was
talk about bacteria in milk, but as TO what they
were, Why they there whether they were good
Or bad, little was known And in these fifty years
just past have enacted the whole story of the
progress in milk handling. Not only it, but have
played part III the building up of the system which
gives to New York what is declared by santarans to
be, the best milk supply in the world
The Sheffield Farms Company of today is a co.,
bnation Of three small companies which joined hands
twenty years ago. The Oldest of the three, the T. W.
Decker Company, dated back to 841. With the other
two, the Sheffield Farms Company and Slawson
Brothers, had, at the time combined total
assets of S35ooo and during the first year did total
business of 100000. Today business amounts to
about S40o00yo00 year. Then had 10 delivery
routes we have 1900 routes and 210 stores. Then
sold only milk, have a group of pas
teurzing plants, equipped with machines built in our
own shops by Our engineers that make it possible
to give every customer bottle of milk that is not only
absolutely safe.
TO appreciate the Importance of the work of these
plants it is only necessary the decreasing NOR
tallty rate among children under two years of age.
Twenty years ago the death rate among the little
ones fed on raw milk was appalling Today New York
shows the best record for conserving infant life of any
large city in the world
Truly wonderful progress has been made But
have no intention to sit in idle contemplation of the
past am still at my desk six days week. The plans
tor the future are thrilling they Is years ago.
we are growing not only in size but in the knowledge
OF how to be more useful to the community
believe we have today the best milk distributing
organization in the world. Each succeeding year finds
us better equipped and efficient than the year
before Each year more people to for service
and each year we able offer still better service
AS to equipment not alone are we rich in expe-
rlence and facilities but rich in men who know
this work.
Cur business is now operated by the second and
third generations of it's founders These men, most of
them young men, born into this business devoting
their lives to it, know it only born into it can
know It, They are actuated by a determination to be
good milk men, to continue to deserve the confidence
that Shefheld Farms has and to maintain this
organization In It's position of leadership i'm the milk
industry With the men, the means and the desire TO
GO bigger things can promise for Sheffield Farms dur
ing the coming years contributions to the publc's
service as important as those has made in the past
