IMPROVED JOBBING FACILITIES.
The recent removal of the long-established and
extensive music jobbing business of A. H. Goet-
ting from Springfield, Mass., to 145 West Forty-
fifth street, New York, where it has been merged
with the Enterprise Music Supply Co., is expected
to mean much in facilitating the work of supply-
ing dealers promptly with desired music. Located
in the heart of the music publishing district, it will
be easy for the Goetting house, now known as the
Enterprise Music Supply Co., to keep in close
touch with the market and to maintain adequate
supplies of desirable music at all times.
Additional space has been leased at the Forty-
fifth street address for the purpose of taking
care of the increased business, which is under the
management of Maurice Richmond, who was for-
merly manager of the Enterprise Co.

"SYBIL" BREAKINGJSOME RECORDS.
New Musical Comedy at Liberty Theatre One
of the Successes of the Season.
"Sybil," the bright new musical comedy at the
Liberty Theatre, is measuring up to the good
things the critics said about it on the opening
night. The capacity of the Liberty Theatre has
been taxed to the limit, with the prospect that this
condition will continue for many weeks to come;
and the charm of Victor Jacobi melodies is ever
present. Chappell & Co., Ltd., the publishers of
the music, report an unusually strong demand for
the instrumental arrangements and the leading
song arrangements.
THAT, despite the fact that a capital of $100,000
is necessary to enter the music publishing field suc-
cessfully, the list of those who have entered upon
the stormy sea recently is a fairly long one.
THAT in the majority of cases it is very doubt-
ful if the necessary $100,000 is available.
THAT the high cost of professional singers re-
sulted in the formation of the Music Publishers'
Hoard of Trade to cut out the payments made to
singers.
THAT since the Board of Trade has been in ex-
istence the already high cost of singers has ma-
terially increased, and they do not seem to have
any trouble getting the advance.
THAT one publisher's representative has the
right idea of making both ends meet. In winter
he sells music and in summer he plays profes-
sional ball.
THAT the Earl Carroll-Morosco combination
seems to be a pretty good one for the work of
money making. Carroll is now in Los Angeles
preparing to clean up some more.
THAT Franz Lehar has been excused from mili-
tary duty during the war, which will afford him
an opportunity to make further contributions to
the world of music.
THAT a recent addition to the list of lyric
writers is Lottie Silence. Were her lyrics not
fairly good, it would be a slight opening for some
half-humorous advice about living up to one's
name.

THE MUSICAL CRITIC.
"There's one thing to be said about this Broad-
way music," said Slithers. "Unconventional though
it is, it has great heart interest, don't you think'
so?"
"Really?" said the Critic. "I hadn't noticed. I
thought from the way most of it is sung if it had
any organic interest it was chiefly nasal."
