At the Wednesday luncheon of the Greater

such a lively time last summer. Automobiles
will take the party to and from the inn and ar-
rangements for the trip and for the luncheon,
dinner and preparations for the athletic events
are in the hands of the entertainment commit-
tee. It is understood that no Hawaiian cos-
tumes will be allowed either in the dance hall
or in the aquatic sports.

THAT Joe Howard has written the words and
music for fifteen numbers in the score of thfe
new show "In and Out," which will be produced
shortly.
THAT the music publishers are very busy right
now trying to put their numbers into the new
burlesque shows for next season.
THAT when a song does get into burlesque, it
has a pretty good chance of sticking for a while.
THAT if reports from the army camps are true,
it might be a good idea to carry stocks of sheet
music in the various canteens.
THAT with the cabarets at Atlantic City shut
down by the law, there will be no excuse for
song pluggers to visit that popular resort over
week-ends on "business."
THAT, according to authorities, there is a great
deal of difference between handling pneumatic
hammers in shipyards and keeping piano ham-
mers in action in professional rooms.
THAT the term "No Man's Land" seems to be
finding its way into a surprising number of
songs.
THAT the Cosmopolitan Music Publishing Co.
has been incorporated in Milwaukee with cap-
ital stock of $95,000.
THAT if the capital is all paid in the new com-
pany should certainly last for awhile.
