display is given the title' pages, linking up the
Arbuckle pictures with the song.
The Woolworth stores in all parts of the coun-
try have been displaying large electric signs
carrying reproductions of the "Oh, Helen"
title page, and this, together with the fact that
the motion picture houses arc throwing slides
with the chorus of the song on their screens, has
added to the interest and publicity this song is
getting. "Oh, Helen" has been a fast-selling
song, and it hardly needed this additional pub-
licity, but witli- it the sales of the number are
increasing at a very heavy rate.
UNUSUAL ORDER_FOR SHEET MUSIC
The firm of Keboch & Meyers, music dealers
in Allentown, Pa., have received an order from
London as the result of a rather unusual bit of
advertising. Last Christmas time one of their
customers asked for a box in which to send
some gifts to friends in Knglaud. The box was
obtained and by a happy thought a few of the
lirm's sheet music catalogs were adtled for the
purpose of iilling up the empty spaces. A few
days ago an order was received from the family
to whom the box had been sent. The order was
for sheet music and also contained a request
for more catalogs.
