THE LAKE SHORE NBWft FRIDAY, MAY 7, MUX Pasquale Amato, Emperor of Baritones, \Home-Made Grape Juice Economical Soloist for the North Shore Festival One of the Chief Attractions of This Year's Con- certs Will Be Singing of Famous Italian. and It Is Not Difficult To Make A greet festival artist, Pmsqualo jnoyed to South America, and thera Amalo—emperor of baritones, The J his popularity advanced with each stnsatlon of last year's festival to sing successive appearance, again this year. Pasquale Amato, Triumphed Again In "Travlata." emveror of baritones; such Is the title When M. M. Oatti-Casazsa and Tos* conferred upon this distinguished j mnlnl wore called to New York's Met- Bulletin from the Government, Not the Depart ment of State, but Agriculture, Gives Many Recipes. I grand opera and concert star by ihe many thousands who know the <x tent of his superlative abilities. Amato was twenty-two when he made hlr debut as Oermont In "La Travlata,'1 a role which was to proyo fortunate , for the singer whenever he appeared in It. The debut was successful and \i' people prodlcted a career for the man* ly young Italian; but there was no wild enthusiasm. This wan In 1000. Encouraged, Amato sought engage- ments, Here and thorn he found them, but there were difficulties and there were small emoluments. For two years the artist struggled to sup port himself, Mrs. Amato and their first-born baby. And If you ask Amato he will admit that there were days, only too oftsn, when this dis- tinguished artist knew what It was to suffer from hunger; when only the loyalty and supreme courago of a de- voted wife mads It possible for tbe struggling young singer to push on. Opportunity Cams In 1902. :- - In 1902 opportunity seemed to touch the singer's shoulder. He was per- mitted to sing for Olullo Oattl-Casazza and Arturo Toacantnl, thon Impresa- rio and first conductor of the famous La Seals in Milan. These experts agreed that there was a fine voice and. other admirable qualities prom- ising a possible satisfactory career, but all advised Amato to obtain the benefits to be bad through singing many different roles. They suggested he go to Germany, and Amato did so. He learned to speak the German lan- guage like a native; and he gained a reputation in such parts as Amfortas, ~Ta^Persifal,M and Kurwenal in "Trls- . tan and Isolde." Returning to Italy In 1906, Amato discovered that his reputation had preceded him. He was Immediately engaged to appear In Venice,, and It was his singing of Oer mont In "Travlata?' that caused M. Gattl-Casasza to run down from Milan to hear this baritone about whom peo- ple were talking. This time It was m matured artist be heard. Almost Lost His Voice < But now that tho impresario w^uj Amato he found In his way an ob- stacle. Th« singer had Junt oigned a contract to appear at Turin. To se cure; his services M. Gattl casazza learned that he must outbid a large figure, and this he at length did. Now Amato found himself preparing for a debut in the foremost opera lions*' In Italy, . It was decided that ho should make, his first appearance as Barnaba In "La Glocondu." A few days before his announced appearance Amato sue- combed to an attack of laryngitis and bronchitis. He knew that to sing would be disastrous, but the i>!iys!<:ian attending him advised the manage- ment that he could pull through. That Bight Amato found, after finishing the monologue In the first act of "Glo- coada," that he had no voice left. Dis- couraged, be left the theater and wrote both M. M. Gattl-Casazza and Tos- canlnl that he was finished with his professional career, and would go Into business. They, however, knew his qualities. They said: "No. rest, and you will have another opportunity." So for twenty-eight days the singer remained In bed. Then ho reap- p oared ae Kurwenal la "Tristan," to make an Immediate triumph. From that moment forward, Amato was in every sense Italy's first baritone, fa tbe summer seasons the singer jour ropolitan Opora house, Amato was their first choico among principals. Tho trio came, and they have unqtraa- tlonably conquered. It was In "Trav- lata," too, that Amato made his bow to Americans, and once more he tri- umphed. From that autumn night in 1908 the artistic rise of this distin- guished artist has kept pace with his popularity. The last notable honor that camo to this magnificent artist was an invitation to sing the title role in Verdi's greoteat opera "Fai- nt ufC" at the centenary In honor of -tho great composer, which was held lost year at BuBseto duly) which would scorn to indicate that among baritones, Pasquale Amato Is undeni- ably emperor. With Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Amato's concert career in Amer- ica has boen phenomenal. Soon after his debut at the Metropolitan Opera bouse ho was In constant demand for muslcalea. Then followed a concert tour to the middle west and the Pa- cific coast. Mr. Amato has appeared as soloist with the Boston Symphony orchestra, the Philadelphia orchestra, the New York Philharmonic society and the Chicago Symphony orchestra; he has also been ro-engaged for the most important May festivals during the laxt few years. Of bin recital work. Mr. Phillip Hale, in the Boston Herald, says: "Amato sang with con- summate art and emotional signifi- cance; his diction, both in Italian, French and German, was constantly a delight." H. T. Parker, In the Bos- ton Transcript, says: "It is good that Amato should oo come into the con- cert room; he can disclose how va- riously accomplished, how artful and elegant and tasteful a singer he really Is." The high esteem In which Mr. Amato is held by the American pub- lic and press 1i;ih been corroborated by his appearances In England, where prominent London irlttca refer to his concert a» "one 01 the ncnsution* of recent ycaie." "the.<» was a storm of applause such an London seldom in- dulges in" anu "u success which i.rul not befcti <-.<u;iH d >u I.<>n<lt..<i fur i»an yearn." Anybody who Is able to can vege- tables can make grape Juice, says a nsw publication of tho United States department of agriculture, Farmers' Bulletin 644. The principle la the came In both cases—tho sterilisation of tho product before It Is stored away. In ease of grape Juice this sterilization prevents the fermentation which In making wide turns the grape sugar Into alcohol. Kill the Bacteria. Fermentation Is caused by various fungi, yeasts, and bacteria, which ad- here to the skins and stems of the grapes. If these are killed, no fer- mentation Is possible. They can be killed in two ways, but one, ths addi- tion of antiseptics, is not possible In ths cue of any article Intended for human consumption, because r.io anti- septics themselves are injurious. The othsr method, killing them by heat, is the ono used in the pasteurisation of rnlla, and ts equally simple and practicable with grapo juice. Prac- tical tests indicate that grape juice is satisfactorily pasteurised without ap- preciable change of flavor when It is hooted to a temperature varying from 106 to 176 degrees Fahrenheit. If the temperature Is allowed to reach 200 degrees Fahrenheit, tho flavor of tho Juice is c.'.iunr.eil ii.r the worse. Largs Variety of Grapes. For bome use there are a large number of varieties of grapes which will make a pleasant and healthful drink. No matter what the kind of grape, however, only clean, sound trult should be used, and it should be woll-ripened, but not overripe. The grapes should first be crushed and pressed In ah ordinary cider-mill If the farm possesses one or by hand If no mill Is available. Tho subsequent pro- cedure depends upon whether a white i or a rod Juice Is desired. For a light- colored Juice, the crushed grapes aro put in s cloth aack and twisted until the greater part of the juice 1b extract- ed, one person holding each end of the sack. The Juice Is then put in some convenient form of double boiler In which it does not come into direct contact with tbe Are, but Is surrounded by hot water, and gradual- ly heated to a temperature of 200 de- grees Fahrenheit. As has already been said, however, it should not bo allowed to go over this point.. If no thermometer Is available, it la best to heat the Juice until it steams and then and take It from the fire before It is allowed to boll. It should then be poured Into a gluns or enameled ves- sel and allowed to •settle for twenty- four hours, after which It can be drained from the sediment and run through some form of cloth filter. The strained juice Is then put Into cloan bottles snd sterilized once more in a water bath. An ordinary wash boiler with a thin board on the bottom for the filled bottles to rest on Is a con- venient home device for this purpose. After Sterilisation tbe bottles should be corked Immediately with new corks, the corks having been previous- ly soaked for about thirty minutes in hot water. **- HOW iu IVlaKo It Mod K~, ted Juict, tho .r,,ahf<i ,,...,.m M<e II.At heated to th. same t.mpera- turt- aa before Mid then strained through a clean cloth i>. drip bag with- out pressure. Thereafter, ths process Is tbe same ae for light-colored Juice.

The California varieties produce a very sweet Juice, but in many cases there is little character- istic flavor. For home use, however, the kind of grape that Is most abundant in the vicinity will, of course, be used. Ceriyle en Warfare.
