Lrand opera has opened the eyes
<»f the country to the progressivenesa

the Continental Trust Company of
Baltimore.
Mr. Warfield yesterday witnessed
the performance of “1*r Gioconda.”

“That Atlanta should support an

surpasses, that of New York,” he de
clares, “is almost unbelievable. I have
never seen anything that impressed
me more than the performance yes
terday afternoon. Never before have
1 seen as brilliant a gathering, not
even in New York."
