A NEW FEIST "POST" AD
Two of Latest Popular Numbers in Company's
Catalog to Be Featured Next Week
In the next issue of the Saturday Evening
Post, released on Thursday, October 17, Leo
Feist, Inc., will run an advertisement featuring
two songs from their fall catalog. The adver-
tisement will occupy almost a half-page of space
and, as usual, in the Feist publicity the leading
numbers of their catalog will be mentioned. Of
special note in regard to the leading songs ad-
vertised is the fact that the boys over there are
singing both numbers, "Good Morning, Mr. Zip-
Zip-Zip" and "If I'm Not at the Roll Call" (Kiss
Mother Good-bye for Me). The first number,
by the way, is the song recently mentioned in
dispatches from the front in which an English
officer describing how the American boys went
into a certain action said: "They went in sing-
ing one of your American songs, something
about Mr. Zip-Zip-Zip." A reproduction of the
coming announcement appears on another page
of this paper.

TO 6000 McKINLEY AGENTS
According to reports the dealers throughout the
country are placing large orders for this new
number, and many of them are making arrange-
ments for window displays of the title pages.
These are especially appropriate in the present
Liberty Loan drive.
According to a Consular report from New
Zealand the demand for sheet music in that coun-
try is much greater than the available supply.
Sheet music from Great Britain (whence most
of the sheet music has come heretofore) is
slow in arriving, and there has been some dif-
ficulty relative to sheet music, from the United
States, the copyrights not having been properly
protected in some cases in New Zealand to the
detriment of American interests, all of which
tends to create a shortage.
