A NEW WILL CARROLL NUMBER
The Will Carroll Co., Inc., is looking with fa-
vor on the proposed peace negotiations now
taking the featured positions in the daily papers.
The reason, of course, is they have an appro-
priate song for the days after peace is declared
in "After the War Is Over." It has already
had a very heavy sale during the last few
months, and promises to continue as a most
popular number.

THREE NEW NUMBERS BY ROBERTS
Lee S. Roberts lias written three new compo-
sitions, which were recently released, "Ha-
waiian Nights," "Moon Dreams Novelette" and
"Amourette Valse." Mr. Roberts may be bet-
ter remembered through some of his previous
compositions, "Valse Parisienne," "Harlequin,"
and other successes from his pen. As manager
of the roll department of the Q R S Roll Co.,
of Chicago, he has succeeded in gaining great
popularity for the publications of that house,
among which are several hand-played rolls by
Mr. Roberts. The Maurice Richmond Music
Co. are the sole selling agents of the three new
numbers mentioned above.

TITLE FOR ESTIMATE
We Publish an Excellent Line of Teaching
The recent statement of a music publisher
that probably all lines of business had benefited
through the prosperity brought on by the Euro-
pean war except the music publishers, is prob-
ably exaggerated. However, it remains that the
publisher of music has seen some small profits
during that period. The reason of course lies in
the fact that while music publishers as a whole
have probably sold more sheet music this year
than in some seasons past, the increased ex-
penses have more than offset any profits added
sales might entail.
One has only to look at publishers in other
fields to realize they have not lacked the cour-
age to advance prices to meet increased ex-
penses, many newspapers having raised their
subscription rates.
The reason is well known that music publish-
ers do not raise the price because of the method
of distribution, which in the popular field is
very largely through the ten-cent store. It is
clearly shown by the action taken by numerous
publishers in raising the price of standard and
operatic numbers, however, that where the dis-
tribution excludes the ten-cent store, that the
price can be made at the publisher's will.
When it is considered the majority of pub-
lishers create the demand for their songs, and
that the syndicate stores buy only songs that
are hits, it is peculiar that the publisher does
not create the price for their retail sale. For
in no other line does the retailer force the price
on the producer.
