memorial benefit a huge success. "It would be a

publishers, writers, the theatrical profession—
in fact, everybody—should cheerfully contribute
toward such a worthy object."

Byron G. Harlan, spoken of as one of the
sweetest tenor singers in America, is authority
for the statement that the Edison people recently
selected Monroe R. Rosenfeld's new ballad hit,
"Let Me Write What I Never Dared to Tell," from
all the new ballads of the season as their fea-

twelve judges were unanimous in picking out this
song on account of the beautiful sentiment and
melody. This ballad is also known as "A Coun-
