TURNER L Construction Co. 1713 .Sunnom ftlrttt PRISTINE SINGERS DELIGHf Bring Music Usually Associated ' Only With Ancient Cathedrals v Tho SIstluo Qunrtct brought to n largo uuionce in tiie Academy of .music Inst lght the sort of beauty that one ns- ociatcs with the imprcoiivc. resounil- ngf mysterious spaces 01 a great eathc- tdral. A male soprano and a male contralto arc rarities to the concert stnge of this country. However, the mellowness of Senor J.uigt Gentlll's contralto anil the rich vigor and bell-toued soprano of Senor Alessandro Gabriclli proved as delightful ns most rarities arc. The art of the Sistinc CJjinrtct is very striking and very unusual, and the, numbers of their concert were care fully selected. The urogram was di vided into two part". During the first partthc qunrtct nppenred In crimson vestujents. The selections in the scc bnl half were pastoral. I'alestl-inn'H "La cruda mia nemica," Jwhieh is the Imnrnt of n youth over the roldness of his sweethonrt, held within at the grief of all lovers. It was sung With high' charm. But the "Mottcto." by Vittorin, which Ms sung on Holy Tlmrxday. nnd whicli Is n cry of grief of the Virgin Slnry ' before the lifeless body of Christ, sur passed the I'nlestrinii selection in poig nant charm. It is MRiilIicuiit that the fcclesiastlcnl selections in every in ntnneo seemed far superior to the lay lyrics. Midler's "II ritoinn del gregge," n concluding number of the program, was ft tone picture of the return of sheep to the fold. The -sound of tinkling bells about the sheep's necks is pictured witli delightful color in this -hmmii. A novelty which paired in a fashion with "II ritorna" was Lasso's "Ln .Canzone del Vollone," n madrigal, throughout which one hears the bent inif of a worker in felt on the cloth wijth his stick. iThe concert ended with "The Star Spangled Ilanner" sung in Italian.

Uruennerg. mrecior 01 uic Bureau of Municipal Itcscnreh. The blame for the financial problem arNIng out of the necessity of appro priating millions for badly needed street repairs out of current revenue l placed bv Sir. Oruonberg upon city nnd state ..nt..l.,la trim rlnnoil nut the accounting Pnntl business financing scheme originally included in the charter. Declining to comment upon the adequacy or inadequacy of t'w ?''""" for street repairs and the $1,000,000 for repaving. the head of the biircnn takes the stand thnt the city will be better off in the future if repavlng is done from current revenues in order to catch up with time lost by lcasSn of the war. , Mr. firuenberg. who is a propert owner, declared today be wouli., rather shoulder nn added burden than have posterity pay for repairs nnd repavlng that would be automatically cared for had the charter tinkers kept hands off. "Had Connelly, Walton nnd hehnf fer not ripped out sections of the char ter that would have allowed the city a modem sivstom of financing, such ns is recognized and used by public corpora; tions," lit said, "depreciation would have cared for streets needing rcpnving and the work could be done ns a cap ital outlay instead of out of curreut revenues. "If the system of financing had been left intact, provision would have been mnde whereby depreciated street paving could have been written off the books ns of no value, thus permitting of a capi tal outlay. As such was not Oic case, the chai ter specifically provides that repaying, nnd all work of a similar na ture must be met by current revenues. The present situation is n serious one and probably enn only be met by an increase in the tax rate." Chairman Oaffney, of Councils' finance committee, tnkes the stand that streets requiring an entirely new pave ment should be paid for out of long term loan funds nnd that only repairs and small sections of repaving need come from current revenues raised by taxation. Notwithstanding this view. Chairman (inftney has agreed to an ex- ncnilltiiri! of S2. 000. )00 ilnrlni! 1!K.'0. lien visited by unlet uunuip, of tne Highway Bureau, Controller Walton insisted thnt he would comply with the exact Iettci of the charter and will not approve any wnrrants for street re pairs or street repaving from funds other than current revenues.

ANTIQUE SHEFFIELD PLATE FOR GENERATIONS THE NAME SHEF-, FIELD HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS A STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE. In 1742 one Thomas Bols'ovcr dis covered the method of fusing silver on copper, which has since been known as Sheffield Plate. This method was maintained until the discovery of depositing pure silver by electricity on copper and other metals, about 1840, and has since gradually disappeared. Sheffield Plate was made during that period In which lived those ar tisans ol England who have become recognized as masters ; hence the designs reflect the genius of such men as Sheraton, Heppclwhltc, Chippendale, Flaxman and the Brothers Adam. Remarkable examples of old Sheffield and au thcntlc reproductions suggest gilts suitable lor Christmas.
