The sculptor, Fontana, has already achieved distinction in works of impressive size-notably in the Garibaldi at Sarzana, and the newly erected Quadriga at Rome. Said Fontana: "We, too, claim some share in Shelley's memory. He lived and died among us. Prometheus has, I suppose haunted most sculptors.

No previous year's net revenue has reached or surpassed 1923's record of $22,422,035, which compares with $4,375,373 in 1922, and amounts to $13.21 a share on the common stock, as against $2.56 the year before. The year 1923 was also a record one in the amount of freight handled...
