TO SING SCOTCHED IRISH SONGS.
Hamish \JacKay, the famous Scotch baritone, is
to give a song recital at Aeolian Hall on the even-
ing of November 5, when he will introduce to
Niw York a number of Scotch and Irish folk
songs, which will undoubtedly attract the attention
of music lovers. Mr. M'acKay is doing for the
Scotch songs what Plunkett Greene did for the
Irish songs, namely, presenting them in an artistic
manner with pianoforte accompaniments specially
written for him by leading Scottish composers.
Many of the Scotch songs he sings is costume.
"SAFETY FIRST^SET TO MUSIC.
According to an announcement of Leo Feist,
Inc., that house will be the first to adopt the
"safety first" idea to'the title of a popular song
and thus profit by the universal adoption of that
slogan. The I'eist composers have practically
completed a new song under the title of "Safety
First." which will soon be placed on the market.

THAT, although vaudeville performers have been
asked to cut salaries to help the managers tide
over hard times, the song writers have not yet
been asked to cut royalties.
THAT such a condition may suggest that the
publishers do not need any help or that the royal-
ties are not big enough to stand a cut.
THAT one prominent music house, which is cred-
ited with an unusual proportion of hits at the
present time, is declared to have shipped out over
1,200,000 copies of music during September.
THAT, figured on the average basis of twelve
copies to the pound, the total is in excess of fifty
tons—considerable volume to talk about.
THAT Theodore Morse is no longer connected
with the Theodore Morse Music Co., and will
probably act as a free lance writer, for the present
at least.
THAT cabaret managers are now offering bales
o£ cotton as prizes for dancing, which practice may
spread to those who conduct song contests.
THAT a dozen bales of cotton would prove more
embarrassing in professional departments than the
rows of prize cups that are now displayed.
THAT Chappell & Co. are the publishers of Paul
A. Rubens' latest patriotic song, "Your King and
Country Want You," which is dedicated to the
Queen of England and which has proven very pop-
ular throughout Great Britain.
