THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
SONG GETTING MUCH PUBLICITY
Fisher-Thompson Music Co. Featuring
Been A'Longin' For You"
"I've
The Fisher-Thompson Music Pub. Co., Butte,
Mont., are giving much publicity to their song,
"I've Been A'Longin' for You." The number
is being received most favorably and is being
featured by such stars as Julia Dika and Rose
Valyda, both of whom are enthusiastic over the
merit of the number. Over 5,000 orchestras
have received orchestrations of the song and it
is receiving much publicity from those sources.
The firm are using the trade and professional
papers extensively in giving the number pub-
licity. They are receiving the co-operation of
the syndicate stores as well as the leading job-
bers of the country and from present indications
the song bids fair to be one of the large suc-
cesses of the fall season.

junction With Photoplay

tributing this song. In addition it has been
recorded by a large number of the various talk-
ing machine record and player roll manufac-
turing companies.

AUGUST ISSUE OF "THE TRADE"
MONTCLAIR, N. J., August 11.—The songs chosen
at the nightly "community singing" in Mont-
clair's only theatre recently have been of such
a frivolously topical character that "highbrow"
patrons have objected. As one man told the
management, the "curl and girl" songs seemed
too silly for grown persons to sing in public
assemblage.
"An adult may escape looking like a fool
singing them," he said, "but he cannot help
feeling like one." The management, in answer
to protests, said that a short time ago the audi-
ence wanted war songs, but more recently has
expressed a preference for songs of lighter vein.
The August issue of The Trade, the house
oigan of G. Schirmer, Inc., was recently for-
warded to the dealers throughout the country.
A resume of the convention of the National As-
sociation of Sheet Music Dealers, which was
held in New York in June, is given a feature
position in the number. Much other material,
which should be eagerly read by the trade, is
found in the issue and with its newsy style
it should be eagerly awaited each month.
INCORPORATED IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
The Fahey-Rocheleau Co. have filed a certifi-
cate of incorporation with the Secretary of
State of New Hampshire and will open up a
music publishing business in the city of Man-
chester. The capitalization of the new con-
cern is $5,000 and Peter J. Fahey, Adam R.
Rocheleau and Edward C. Smith, of Manchester,
are the incorporators.
FEIST PURCHASES^'QOLDEN GATE"
Leo Feist, Inc., have purchased "Golden
Gate" from Kendis & Brockman. The song is
from the pens of the writers of "I'm Forever
Blowing Bubbles." It has already received
much publicity and is, to say the least, a most
promising number.
TO OPEN PHILADELPHIA BRANCH
Gilbert & Friedland, Inc., the well-known New
York music publishing house, have acquired
quarters for a Philadephia branch in the Gim-
bel block of that city, 829 Chestnut street.
FEIST BUYS ANOTHER SONG
Leo Feist, Inc., have acquired the publishing
rights of the song, "I'm Always Building Castles
in the Air" from the Ted Garton Music Co. The
number is by the writers of "Belgian Rose,"
Ted Garton and A. Fred Phillips.
