Publications of Eastern Publishers Going Well
in San Francisco—"Whispering" a Favorite
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., September 25.—The Remick
Shop is boosting the already famous song
"Whispering," which has also been taken up
by several other music houses. It is published
by Sherman, Clay & Co., this city, who
lecently sent two of their representatives, Her-
bert Marple and Harvey Orr, on a cross-country
tour.
Tommy Leahy, manager of the local offices of
Fred Fisher, Inc., is making a big sales cam-
paign on "You're the Only Girl That Made Me
Cry." He has just left town for a six months'
trip through northern California, Oregon, Wash-
ington and British Columbia. On this trip he
will also feature "Dardanella Blues."
Waterson, Berlin & Snyder will receive copies
in the near future of "Look What You Have
Done With Your Doggone Dangerous Eyes."
Mr. Harris, manager of this firm, reports In-
creased sales for "In Sweet September."
Phil Furman, manager of Irving Berlin, Inc.,
will soon put out "The Broadway Blues" and
"Rockaby Lullaby Mammie." He has already
popularized "Tired of Me" and "After You Get
What You Want You Don't -Want It."
If the Public
Only Knew!
That the non-copyrights we are
nationally advertising were common
property and issued by a hundred
publishers, they would realize the
importance of insisting on the gen-
uine CENTURY CERTIFIED EDI-
TION when ordering them.
But they don't know—and a large
percentage who read our
ads would expect when
ordering
"HUMOR-
ESQUE" to get same in
"CENTURY
EDITION"
without feeling it neces- 1
sary to specify it—as
not one in a thousand
would suspect our ad-
vertising numbers issued
by other publishers any
more than they would expect
Armour to advertise Swift's
hams.
That's WHY CENTURY needs
and deserves your backing. It's
helping you sell non-copyrights,
which is something no other house
has ever done.

The "Twelfth Street Rag," published by J. W.
Jenkins' Sons Music Co., Kansas City, Mo., is
proving one of the most popular instrumental
successes of the present season. While this
number is not new in any sense of the word, its
big popularity seems to have been reaching
towards its apex. Over 35,000 orchestrations of
this number are now in the hands of the or-
chestra leaders, and it has been recorded by
practically every talking machine record and
player roll organization in the United States.
Its sale in sheet music form has also increased.

The sheet music department of the Wurlitzer
Co., Cincinnati, has been closed out. After every-
thing had been sold as music that could be sold
as such, the remainder, consisting of about 25,000
sheets, was sold by the pound as waste paper.

The Florentine Music Co. is supplying the
big demands for the new song, "Havana Moon,"
written by Walter Smith, a San Francisco com-
poser and song writer.
"Avalon," the new oriental fox-trot published
by Jerome H. Remick & Co., written by Al
Johnson and Vincent Rose, is said by Manager
B. Atkins, of the local Remick shop, to be show-
ing indications of a huge success in this terri-
tory.
