DELINEATOR
These three biggest of all Women's Maga-
zines are telling their four millions or more
readers about the Wonderful "CENTURY"
Certified Music and urging the public to go
to YOU for It.
These Century Ads. will be run during
February, March and April, and the number
of customers they bring you will depend on
what sort of team work you give us.
The Echo Music Pub. Co. have sold "Egypt-
land," their new Oriental number, to F. J. R.
Forster, the well-known Chicago publisher and
jobber. "Egyptland," while just recently re-
leased, is according to the opinion of many in
the trade who have heard it one of the best
numbers of its kind published and a big sale has
been anticipated for it during the coming
months.
ALEX GERBER SIGNS WITH WITMARK
The latest addition to the staff of lyric writers
with M. Witmark & Sons is Alex Gerber, who
has just signed up with that house for a term
of years. Mr. Gerber is at present with the
Motor Transport Corps, U. S. Army, in this
country, but his duties have not prevented him
from pvirsuing his favorite peace-time occupa-
tion of producing some very promising numbers.
You can't expect much benefit unless you
at least show evidence in your window and
store that you carry the Edition.

FEATURING WITMARK NUMBERS
"That Wonderful Mother of Mine" and "Have
a Smile," two numbers from the catalog of M.
Witmark & Sons, are being featured by a long
list of professional singers. Among these is
the team of Wells & Crest, who will shortly
appear in the East and will without doubt be
booked at the larger New York houses. They
report the above songs as being tremendous
successes. The fact that they are so different,
thus affording a very effective contrast, makes
them acceptable to vaudeville singers.
