THE
E. S. FLORENTINE TO VISIT EAST.
Manager of Hauschildt Music Co. Department
in San .Francisco to Call on New York Trade
This Month—J. B. Kalver on Coast.
March 24.—E. S. Floren-
tine, of the sheet music department of the Haus-
childt Music Co., expects to leave for a trip
to New York in the course of a month. He
says the sheet music business has not been very
brisk lately by reason of there being no popular
new song hit to bring people into the store.
The San Francisco and Oakland sheet music
dealers are now charging slightly higher prices
for higher class publications on account of their
increased cost.
J. B. Kalver, representing Jerome H. Remick
& Co., sheet music people of Detroit, has just
been calling on the local trade.

REVIEW
JACK GLOGAU A BUSY MAN.
Jack Glogau, who composed the music of the
hit "Wake Up, America," by George Graff, Jr.,
is busy at work on several new numbers. With
Joe McCarthy he has done a high-class ballad
entitled "There's a Garden in Old Italy," and
with Graff again he has composed "On to the
•End with You!" a ballad of genuine senti-
ment. These Feist numbers will soon be out.
"Wake Up, America" is getting some great
publicity in the New York American, which pa-
per has offered a $25 prize for the best additional
verse to the song, and contributions are pour-
ing in from all parts of the country.
BOOSEY & C C S NEW ISSUES.
Some Interesting Features Among Latest Pub-
lications of That House.
One of the pleasing features of the list of new
music issued by Boosey & Co. recently is a. collec-
tion of five selections for the piano by A. Louis
Scarmolin and known as "Vignettes." The num-
bers are titled, separately, "Vivacity," "Pensive
Mood," "Moment Musical," "Dialogue" and
"Scherzino." They are tuneful, well-balanced and
altogether most satisfying examples of modern
piano music.
Other selections of particular note among the
latest Boosey issues include "What Shall I Say?"
"NAAR I KOMMER HJEM!"
