the verse and chorus of "The Battle Song of
Liberty," as follows:
"The Battle Song of Liberty" Subject of Unusual
Command by Regimental Chief With Ex-
peditionary Forces in France
"It's the roar an.l rattle of Freedom's battle
That's calling us over the sea.
Where a mighty foe has challenged us, boys,
It's up to you and to me.
So get Old Glory, we'll make 'em sorry
That they ever dreamed of this fight.
We're on our way with a Hip! Hooray!
Just to do what we know to be right."
Walter Jacobs' new march song, "The Battle
Song of Liberty," bids fair to become eminently
distinguished as a result of the manner in which
it has been accepted by Uncle Sam's fighting

CHORUS
"So here's to Uncle Sammy, my faithful and true,
Here's to our banner, Red, White and Blue,
And here's to our good fellows on land and sea
Singing the Battle Song of Liberty."
The verses were followed by the order: "The
commanding officer directs that the above'copy
be furnished to all organizations of the regiment,
and that a copy be posted on company bulle-
tin boards, in order that every man can memo-
rize the 'Battle Song of Liberty.' (Signed) Hugh
L. Parker, Captain Twenty-eighth Infantry, Ad-
mtant."
NEW PATRIOTICJSONG CATCHES ON
"So Long, Mother" Not Only Featured in The-
atres But Is Selling Very Rapidly
"OUR DIRECTOR"
From the success that has already attended
the exploitation of Remick & Co.'s new patri-
otic song, "So Long, Mother," it looks as
though it would rank as one of the fastest sell-
ing numbers in the company's catalog for the
year, according to Jerome Keit, sales manager.
The song is by Raymond Egan and Gus Kahn,
with music by Egbert Van Alstyne, and has the
advantage of combining the ever popular mother
idea with the present patriotic spirit.

at his Boston office a letter from Chas. B. Tyler,
band leader, Twenty-eighth United States In-
fantry, with the American Expeditionary forces
in Paris, France, inclosing a copy of a memo-
randum placed upon the regimental bulletin
board. The memorandum included the words of

Contest for New Patriotic Song Fails to Dis-
close a Winner
The contest for a new national anthem to suc-
ceed "The Star Spangled Banner," which was

NEW CENTURY EDITION CAMPAIGN
Large Advertisements Now Being Inserted in
Ten Leading Magazines Beginning With Oc-
tober Issue—Many Helps for the Dealer
The fall advertising campaign of the Century
Music Publishing Co., New York, the plans for
which were announced some time ago, is now
already under way, and the first advertisement
for the new season appears in the October issue
of ten of the largest magazines, having an ag-
gregate circulation of something over 10,000,000.
Owing to the success of last year's campaign,
the company has prepared to carry on its work
of exploitation this year on a much larger scale.
Not only are new publications being used, but
the size of the advertisements has been mate-
rially increased, and special attention has been
given to their arrangement.
The Century Co. has long been noted for the
manner in which it co-operates with its dealers,
and this year it displays an even more generous
spirit, for in addition to the national publicity
which reverts directly to the benefit of every
Century dealer, there have also been provided
a special series of electrotype advertisements,
furnished to the dealer on request for use in his
local papers. There are also supplied attrac-
tive banners for use in the dealer's store, and
which call attention to the fact that he handles
Century Edition, and to add interest to the
campaign there has been inaugurated a dealers'
contest with Liberty Bonds as prizes.
A quarter-page advertisement of Century Edi-
tion appearing in the Ladies' Home Journal for
October, and which is out on Septerrrber 25, fur-
nishes an excellent idea of the company's plans
regarding publicity.

The Review. In it advertisements are inserted
free of charge for men who desire positions
of any kind.
