Music dealers in the South have called the at-
tention of The Review to the fact that a num-
ber of high-priced songs and instrumental num-
bers, including "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles"
and "Missouri Waltz," are being retailed in the
Kress stores in the South at 15 cents a copy,
although the wholesale price of the numbers with
the ordinary dealer is in excess of that amount.
Dealers feel that there is some sort of an ex-
planation to be expected.

S. R. Henry's "Pahjamah" is being used as a
dance number by Boyle and Brazil in the Mcln-
tyre & Heath production, "Hello Alexander."
The large orchestra which renders the piece
plays it most effectively and repeated encores
are demanded at every performance. Jos. W.
Stern & Co. are the publishers.
