MUSIC FESTIVAL IN NEWARK, N. J.
Noted Artists to Appear at Annual Affair to Be
Held on May 1 and 3
Music lovers in large numbers have been at-
tracted to the warerooms of the Lauter Piano
Co., on Broad street, Newark, N. J., during the
past week owing to the fact that that store
was the headquarters for the sale of tickets for
the Annual Music Festival which will be held
at the First Regiment Armory on May 1 and 3.
The distinguished artists who will appear this
year include John McCormack, noted tenor;
Amelita Galli-Curci, new soprano sensation, and
Eugene Ysaye, the celebrated Belgian violinist.
There will also be an orchestra of 10O and a
chorus of 800.

Quarterly Sessions Scheduled for May 22 to Be
Held on June 11, When Music Dealers' Asso-
ciation Is in Convention
At a special meeting of the Greater New York
Music Publishers' & Dealers' Association held
at Keen's Chop House on- Wednesday of this
week, it was decided as a result of representa-
tions made by various members that the reg-
ular quarterly meeting and dinner of the asso-
ciation, which is scheduled to be held on May
22, be postponed until June 11, at which time
the members of the National Association of
Sheet Music Dealers will be in convention in
New York,
It is believed by J^e local music
men that the holding of the tegular association
dinner during the convention will provide an ex-
cellent opportunity for entertaining the visitors.
The weekly luncheons of the association con-
tinue to hold the interest of the members, and
there is hardly a Wednesday when at least a
score of music publishers and their friends are
not to be found at Keen's at the luncheon hour.
FEIST SONG I1NTPAJRIOTIC RALLY
"If I Had a Son for Each Star in Old Glory"
Sung in Seattle Celebration by Monte Austin
and Proves a Great Success
Seattle, Wash., held a patriotic rally on Sat-
urday, April 7, and from a report which appeared
in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer on that day it
was a great success. Among other features of
the report was an item referring to Monte
Austin, of the staff of Leo Feist, Inc., who it
appears, was an attraction at several of the
street meetings, where he drew large crowds
with the patriotic song, "If I Had a Son for
Each Star in Old Glory, Uncle Sam, I'd Give
Them All to You."
Monte Austin, it will be
remembered, achieved renown by his rendition
of the well-known song, "We'll Build a Little
Home in the U. S. A.," from the Tower of
Jewels at the Panama-Pacinc Exposition in San
Francisco on Liberty Bell day.
TAKE OVER G^SCHIRMER, LTD.
The old established house of G. Schirmer,
Ltd., London, has been taken over by Winthrop
Rogers, Ltd., who will continue the business in
Great Britain and also act as British represen-
tative for G. Schirmer, Inc., New York, and the
Boston Music Co., Boston.
Will E. Skidmore has another big hit to fol-
low "Pray for the Lights to Go Out." It is "It
Takes a Long, Tall Brownskin Gal to Make a
Preacher Lay His Bible Down." It is rapidly
establishing itself as the biggest of all coon-
shout hits.
It is published by Jos. W. Stern

NEW BALLAD WINS QUICK SUCCESS
"AMERICA FOREVER" IS POPULAR
"Just You" Proving the Strong Feature of the
Catalog of the A. J. Stasny Music Co.
E. T. Paull Music Co. Reports Stimulated De-
mand for Pleasing March Song
The A. J. Stasny Music Co., since releasing
their new ballad success, "Just You," have been
forced to add to the staffs of their branch of-
fices in Philadelphia, Chicago and Boston. Dur-
ing the first two weeks over twenty-five thou-
sand copies of "Just You" have been sold, ac-
cording to the statement of the sales manager
of the concern, and from the present outlook
the song looks like the biggest seller the Stasny
catalog has had since "I Found You Among the
Roses."
The new number by Billy Gould, "Answer Mr.
Wilson's Call," has already made an impres-
sion at the recruiting stations throughout New
York, where it has been played and sung, and
from present indications will prove a very pop-
ular patriotic number.
The war time conditions that are at present
existing in the country have brought to the fore
and revived the public interest in E. T. Paull's
patriotic march songs: "America Forever," and
"We'll Stand by the Flag," which, although pub-
lished sometime ago, are still most timely in
melody and lyrics. The "America Forever"
song, written in a lively march tempo, is ded-
icated to "The People of the United States,"
and embodies a stirring call to arms, which
should make it most effective in recruiting work.
The number is provided with a handsome title
page in four colors, with America symbolized
by a young woman of the Joan of Arc type,
bearing the national colors and with the eagle
screaming on a shield. The E. T. Paull Music
Co. has printed a special edition of "America
Forever" and "We'll Stand by the Flag" to take
care of the new and increased demands of the
trade.
FEATURE FOUR PATRIOTIC MARCHES
Sam Fox Co. Issues Four Live Numbers to Meet
Existing Demand for Patriotic Music
The Sam Fox Publishing Co., Cleveland, O.,
has taken advantage of the patriotic spirit now
in evidence throughout the land by issuing and
featuring four live march numbers of patriotic
character, they being "All America," "The Min-
ute Man," "Pride of the Regiment" and "Army
and Navy." Special circulars* regarding the war
marches have just been issued.

Natalie Alt Singing "That's Why My Heart Is
Calling You," on Tour of West
The Karczag Publishing Co., Inc., recently
received a telegram from the well-known singer
Natalie Alt, telling them she had placed their
song, "That's Why My Heart Is Calling You"
on her program with such success that she has
decided to make it the feature number on her
ten weeks' tour of the West. This number is
the work of Harry D. Kerr and Otto Motzan,
and has been proving a great ballad success.
This also registers the fourth successful number
placed by Mr. Motzan with the Karczag con-
cern in the past six months.

cently been organized in New York and opened

JOE HOWARD ARRANGING NEW ACT
Wm. Jerome Publishing Corp. to Publish Three
Songs Featured in Vaudeville Production
Joe Howard, the well-known composer and
musical comedy star, is shortly to place a new
act in vaudeville on a very large scale. It is
to contain over twenty people, and will have at
least twelve scenes. Mr. Howard has already
arranged to place three songs from the catalog
of the Wm. Jerome Publishing Corp. in his
new offering, including a new patriotic number,
"The Spirit of 76," and a novelty song, "You
Can't Do This and You Can't Do'That."
ISSUES NEW PATRIOTIC SONGS
Hughes Publishing Co. Featuring Two Lively
March Numbers Which Have Timely Interest
The Jos. H. Hughes Publishing Co., of Sag-
inaw, Mich., are featuring two patriotic march
songs which seem to be having quite a demand
at present. The numbers are entitled "The
Finest Flag That Flies," which has been fea-
tured for some time, and a new number, "I
Love My U. S. A." Both songs are to receive
some good publicity in the next few weeks, and
this, with the Hughes organization behind them,
should keep them in the limelight.
