We knew that of the one hundred
million people in the U. S. A. many
were buying sheet music—despite the
hard times -so we spent a small barrel
of U. S. A. coin to tell them about
CENTURY EDITION. 25 increase in
business was the result! And the
dealers got the long end of the profit!
That's why they believe in us, our
policy and our goods.

PUBLISH NEW JMSEUTRAL" SONG.
'We'll Be a Big Brother to All Nations," Issued
by Acme Music Publishing Co.
One of the latest productions of the Acme Music
Publishing Co., Los Angeles, Cal., is the new song,
based on the neutrality of this country and entitled
"We'll Re a Big Brother to All Nations." Tn addi-
tion to an excellent title a feature of the new mini
ber is the stirring nmrc'i melody to which it is
fitted. "We'll Be a Big Brother to All Nations" was
recently featured very successfully by Creature's
Band at Morosco's Theater in Los Angeles, and is
being used extensively in vaudeville and cabarets
throughout the country. The Parent Tea'chers' As-
sociation, of Long Beach, Cal., has a double quar-
tet singing the number, and it is also being used in
a number of schools. Geo. II. Carr, the veteran op-
eratic baritone, is also singing the number with L:-i-
moneca's Band at Venice, the famous beach resort.

I WANT A LITTLE LOVETROM YOU"
Although only in business about a month, the
Werblow-Fischer Co. has been compelled to secure
new offices in the Strand Theater building, where
it is now located, to take care of its increased busi-
ness. The new quarters are about four times the
size of the old office, which will still be retained.
Alex Gerber, who has been in Boston for the com-
pany during the week, reports some large sales in
that city, over 20,000 copies of "Oh, That Beauti-
ful Band" alone being sold in two days.
ISSUE NEW "LUSITANIA" SONG.
'As the 'Lusitania' Went Down" Title of New
Ballad Published by McKinley Music Co.
One of the most interesting of the songs that
have made their appearance in commemoration of
the "Lusitania" disaster is the pathetic balled just
issued by tne McKnley Music Co., Chicago, 111.,
and entitled "As the 'Lusitania' Went Down." The
lyric of the song is by Arthur J. Lamb, writer of
"Asleep in the Deep" and many other successes,
and the music is by J. Henri Klickmann, composer
of "Sing Me the Rosary," "The Kiss That Made
You Mine,'" etc. Although quickly gotten out, the
new song displays careful preparation bot'.i in the
lyric and the melody, the latter being particularly
good. The number is also set off to advantage
through the medium of a two-color title page of
striking design. The first verse and chorus fol
low:
"AS THE LUSITANIA WENT DOWN."

He thought of the girl who loved him,
He thought of their wedding day
As lie looked on the angry ocean
Eager to .seize its prey.
lie thought of his poor old mother
In a little southern town,
And sadly lie sighed, "Thy Will be done!"
As the Lusitania went down.
