by Theodore Morse, has proven so popular that

after the song made its appearance.

bands and sung by the soldiers on their way
to Mexico, the old songs compete with the new
for military favor.

PREPAREDNESS IN WAR SONGS
Chappell & Co. Numbers That Are Proving
Popular with the Soldier Boys—"Keep the
Home Fires Burning" Is the Leader
Chappell & Co., Ltd., are now enjoying some
of the unexpected benefits of preparedness, for
several songs in their catalog are proving de-
cidedly popular with the militia being mobilized
for service on the border. "Keep the Home
Fires Burning," a big hit with the English sol-
diers, is very strong in America, and is in-
cluded in the repertory of the majority of the
bands of the National Guard. "We'll Never
Let the Old Flag Fall" is another big number,
while the music of "Tipperary," with new words
to meet the local situation is one of the march-
ing songs of the men in the rank. And all
these numbers were published before the Mex-
ican trouble was heard of.
FINE DISPLAY OF "SOLDIER BOY"
An unusually effective display of the new
Feist song, "Soldier Boy," was made last week
at the S. S. Kresge Co.'s five and ten cent store
in Brooklyn, N. Y. Sheets of the music were
shown in a window decorated with flags, rifles
and other military equipment, while a pair of
guards, in uniform, were stationed at the door
of the store.
A certain composer who, by no means, un-
derestimates the worth of his own music, re-
marked the other day to a group of acquaint-
ances: "Did you ever notice that the names of
all the great composers begin with M?" "M!"
ejaculated his astonished audience. "Yes, M,"
said the composer.
"Mozart, Mendelssohn,
Meyerbeer, Moszkowski and Me!"
