A LIVE INSTRUMENTAL NUMBER
"Oriental" Proving a Popular Fox-Trot With
Orchestras on Broadway
The big instrumental number from the Daniels
& Wilson, Inc., catalog, entitled "Oriental," is
one of the most popular of fox-trots in the
cabarets and other places where the dance reigns
along Broadway. It has become such a favorite,
according- to the officials of the company, that
the orchestras are compelled to play it several
times during the course of each evening. It has
also demonstrated its popularity in other direc-
tions, having been recorded by the leading talk-
ing machine and music roll companies. , The
sales of the number have been very encouraging
and the outlook seems to indicate a continued
popularity throughout the Summer.
FEATURING WITMARK NUMBER
Lillian Steel & Co., now playing in vaudeville,
are making a very effective and happy feature
of M. Witmark & Son's novelty song, "I'm Go-
ing to Follow the Boys." Special accessories
are used and no effort has been spared to em-
phasize the good points of this lively number.
The result is a huge success.
