Last month Miss Case ackicd to her list of
accomplishments, and it came about in a most

porch of her Mamaroneck summer resort she

also well known as a concert singer. Outside her summer home, it is right on the sound,
with a gorgeous view, an expan-
sive, well-kept lawn, flowers ga-
lore and hundreds of birds.
On this particular day a robin
perched on a broken branch of
a nearby tree and sang his little
song. After a short while Miss
Case suddenly woke to the reali-
zation of his exquisite theme,
rushed for a music pad and jot-
ted it down. Elaborating this
theme and working up the ac-
companiment Miss Case began
singing the robin's little song.
He would fly away when she
stopped, to return and sing with
her as soon as she commenced
again.
With such a helpmate the
song was soon finished, both the
lyrics and the music. It was
given its first concert hearing at
Ocean Grove July 5 and will, no
doubt, because of its happiness
and splendid climax, be one of the
biggest song successes of the
coming season. "Song of the
Robin" has just been published
by Harold Flammer, Inc.
Miss Case recently gave a
lawn party and concert at her
home for 200 wounded soldiers
from a New York hospital. She
sang several songs and was as-
sisted by a number of vaudeville
acts
from
the metropolitan
theatres. After the entertain-
ment supper was served, follow-
ing which her guests returned to
the hospital. During the war pe-

all her time to entertaining the
boys in the service, singing for

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., August 8.—Sherman, Clay
& Co.'s publishing department has been busy
during the past two weeks and has brought out
an even half a dozen songs. E. P. Little, in
charge of the department, enumerates them as
follows, and says they are all catching on: "Oh
Angelo," "When Honey Sings an Old-Time
Song," "When Twilight Shadows Are Falling,"'
"Little Northern Window," "Sometimes" and
"When It's Sunset in Sweden." The hit of the
sextet to date has been "When Honey Sings an
Old-Time Song." This was sung all this week
at the Imperial Theatre by Joe Stiegler, an
oversea sergeant, who has something of a re-
markable voice. The strains from the old-time
songs which run through the composition were
greeted with an applause which seemed to
demonstrate that the public yearns for the good
old songs of a generation ago.
G. Schirmer, the music publisher, who has
been visiting here, returned to Chicago this
week. H. Andrews, of the same publishing
house, is expected here next week.

J. F. Coots, of the New York office of the
McKinley Music Co., recently returned from a
successful business trip to Atlantic City, where
he found that many members of the theatrical
profession playing engagements at that resort
were featuring numbers from his firm's cata-
log.
In the trade channels he found both the syn-
dicate stores and the dealers were having good
calls for such numbers as "Sweet Hawaiian
Moonlight," "White Heather," "Oh Lady,"
"Weeping Willow Lane" and the Oriental num-
ber "Oasis."

"St. Louis Blues." The new edition will be
placed in the 30-cent catalog of the company.
It is also announced by the firm that all of the
Handy "Blues" numbers will be published as
