THE COMING CONVENTIONS
Sheet Music Dealers and Music Publishers to
Hold Conventions During Month of June
The National Association of Sheet Music
Dealers will hold its seventh annual meeting at
the McAlpin Hotel, New York, on June 14 and
16. On June 15 the annual meeting of the Music
Publishers' Association of the United States will
be held at the Astor Hotel, New York. Either
on June 17 or 18 it is proposed to hold the an-
nual outing of the Greater New York Music
Publishers' and Dealers' Association, to which
all the visiting dealers then in New York will
be invited to attend.
A formal notice of the annual meeting of
the National Association of Sheet Music Deal-
ers, including a list of the subjects that will be
discussed at the convention, will be forwarded
to the members of that body at an early date.
According to the secretary of the Association,
the coming gathering will be the largest in the
history of the Association. Certainly the deal-
ers have had a prosperous twelve months, and
when the benefits to be derived from the attend-
ance and the constructive work of the body are
considered, the trip is certainly worth while.
The Association is making a big drive for
membership, and any information regarding the
organization can be obtained by addressing J.
M. Priaulx, C. H. Ditson & Co., New York.
FEATURING NEW FOX-TROT
I]. D. Nice & Co. are making a big drive in
trade and professional circles on their song and
fox-trot, "Wond'ring." A recent circular sent
to the trade reproduces some of the Saturday
F.vening Post publicity, advertising Ted Lewis'
Columbia record of this number.
BERT FELDMAN IN TOWN
Bert Feldman, head of the English music
house of B. Feldman & Co., is one of the recent
arrivals from London. While in New York he
will make his headquarters with Chas. K. Harris.

A Song of True Merit
By Edward J. Walt
Poem by Fred G. Bowles
"Lassie O'Mine" has suc-
ceeded on merit. Not one of
those overadvertised songs
which are forced upon the
public. With little previous
advertising it has gained in
prestige,
recognition and
sales solely on merit. We
are now preparing to stimu-
late its sale and popularity.
LIVE WIRE DEALERS
If you are in this class,
look up your stock and be
sure you have the song in all
keys; also the octavo and
duet arrangements.

It is now understood that the various music
jobbers have formed an association for the
purpose of co-operating on credits, eliminating
duplication of bulletins, and to take construc-
tive measures for the general good of the music
business. Reports say that practically all of the
jobbing houses have joined the new body.

"I'm selling four times as much CENTURY
EDITION at 15c as I formerly did at 10c:
Because the 10c per copy gross profit we
now realize makes it well worth while pushing.
Besides, I feel that by placing 'CENTURY' in
a more profitable class deserves the dealers'
hearty cooperation."
