"On to Plattsburg," Published by the Oliver
Ditson Co., a Timely Number
BALTIMORE, M D , July 31.—Policemen here have
been distributing copies of a municipal ordi-
nance providing that "musicians, performers or
other persons shall stand while playing, singing
or rendering 'The Star-Spangled Banner.' " Any
person violating the provisions of the ordinance
"shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon
conviction shall be fined not more than $100."
Copies of the ordinance were distributed at
all theatres, moving picture halls, restaurants
and cafes, and to the offices of all musical
unions or branches in Baltimore.
In the circular it is pointed out that the "in-
discriminate rendition of 'The Star-Spangled
Banner' or parts thereof in connection with
other compositions tends to lower the esteem
and reverence in which the national anthem
should be held by the people of the nation."
CHICAGO, I I I . , July 31.—C. C. Miles, composer
and publisher of popular songs, of Maywood,
Chicago, has just brought out a novelty in the
way of post card song series. Complete words
and music are printed on the back of the card.
You can buy these cards for three for a dime,
a different song on each card. Mr. Miles has
post carded the following songs, all of his own
composition. "Uncle Sam is Calling You, Wil-
son," "Little Bo Peep," "The Bogy Man," "If
I Only Knew," "My Alabama Sue" and "For
the Love of a Girl Like You."
A recent and particularly timely new publica-
tion of the Oliver Ditson Co., in view of the
present interest being displayed in the military
training camps for business men, is the "On
to Plattsburg" march by Herbert W. Lowe.
The march is a tuneful and lively one, with
words for the trio written by David Stevens.
"On to Plattsburg" is being featured strongly
by the Ditson Co., one of the mediums of ex-
ploitation being an attractive poster stamp
bearing a reproduction of the title page and
which is affixed to all the Ditson mail matter.

New Numbers That Hold Much Promise—
Library Edition Growing Rapidly
The Library Edition of music published by
the Sam Fox Co., of Cleveland, O., now com-
prises thirty selections of every variety of music,
ranging from the light scarf dance to the deep
tone poem, all the numbers being arranged for
pianos and also for orchestra; ten of them are
arranged for full band. The latest addition to
the Library 'Edition is the clever number. "Sim-
plicity," composed by Dorothy Lee, who is re-
sponsible for the former hit, " O n t Fleeting
Hour," and which has been strongly exploited
by the publishers, through the medium of band
and orchestra. Piano copies of "Simplicity,"
of a new Hawaiian number, "Sunset Land," and
"An Operatic Nightmare," by Felix Arndt, are
on the press and will be issued to the trade
shortly.
