It has been said that they are the most travelled artists in tho world and the many Illustrated articles that have appeared concerning their wanderings have attracted a good deal of attention. They have played before crowned heads and royalties of every European coun- try.

City Center For
 Chain Milk Sales
State Distribution to Be Made From South Leonard
 Street Headquarters

throughout Connecticut, through the medium of It's hundreds oi stores. The price of the milk. oi course, would be lower than the general scale tx now, it Is under. stood and. thereby, cause consider able competition with the other dairy companies or independent dealers of Connecticut.
 The plan. 1t Is understood. is already In operation in New York state with the milk being sold through the chain stores at a com petitivc price.
 At first. according to authentic reports, the distribution center was to be set up in Oakville. However, 1t Is understood. plans were changed so as to make Waterbury the center provided the plan is car ried through to completion. Ac- cording to reports the building housing the distribution center would be located in South Water bury. apparently on South Leonard street.
 On the other hand, the chain stores in Connecticut are deeply concerned in n few bills now pend- ing before the legislature which concern taxation. The bills would enable the state to collect increased taxes from tho chain stores. The measures, needless to say. are be- ing strongly opposed by the ofIi. cials of the various chain store systems.

 The practice is becoming so widespread that banlcA. rcnl estate agencies and others are becoming involved. For the time being c prom pt- t-paying tenant is being sought by scores of landlords--at his--the tenant's--own figure. Sounds almost incredible. but nevertheless one will not be obliged to make inquiries before finding many reliable sources of vcrifica- ton.
