WAR AFFECTSJVUJSIC TEACHERS.
Warned of Price Changes in Imported Goods—
No Discount on Imported Music, Is Notice of
One House, Owing to Its Inability to Secure
Fresh Stocks from Abroad During War.
The war has begun to hit even the music teachers
of this city, who usually have been able to get a
discount from the firms which supply music pub-
lished abroad. One large music publishing house
has sent the following notification to its patrons as
a result of conditions:
"On account of the difficulty of importation all
foreign sheet music and books that are marked
net will until further notice be subject to no dis-
count whatever. All other foreign music not
marked net, prices and discounts will likewise be
subject to changes. Kindly take note of above,
so as to avoid mistakes in buying or selling to your
pupils."

THE MOST SUNG SONGS

And that means the World !
THAT the over-abundance of new issues and
too liberal discounts are both matters that are
worthy of more than passing attention.
THAT with a president from Boston, vice-presi
dent from Denver and secretary-treasurer from
Los Angeles, the dealers do not appear to have
neglected any section of the country in their se-
lection of officers.
THAT with the war only a month old, there has
arisen at least one charge fo plagarism in connec-
tion with the writing of a semi-war song.
THAT a good rule for the song writer would
appear to be, "Never trust your friend with your
ideas."
THAT the United Booking Offices, working in
harmony with the Music Publishers' Board of
Trade, has announced that acts being paid for
using songs will not be booked.
THAT unless the U. B. O. boosts salaries, there
will be a dropping off in performers' incomes.
THAT "The Aba Daba Honeymoon" (Feist)
is being used in the majority of the leading bur-
lesque shows of the circuits this season, which in-
dicates some hard work on the part of the pro-
fessional department.
THAT Harry Piano has joined the Feist staff
as a writer and is preparing several numbers to
be issued under the Feist imprint.
