Another Whispering by
JOHN SCHONBERGER
CHICAGO, I I I . , November 7.—Tell Taylor, Chicago
music publisher, has taken over "China Lily,"
which Isham. Jones, leader of the famous Isham
Jones Orchestra, says is the best Oriental num-
ber he has ever interpreted. The deal was made
by Mr. Taylor with Bob. Chamberlin, the com-
poser of the number, who has heretofore pub-
lished hersel/f, for be it known "Bob," who is a
woman, is a very accomplished and charming
one, at that. It might also be said that "Bob"
wrote the lyrics as well as the music. She gets
her facility as lyric writer from her father, the
late Chas. H. Chamberlin, the famous writer
of the words of the State song, "Illinois." Mr.
Taylor, with the accustomed vim, vigor and
energy, if you will 1 permit us to be perniciously
tautological, has unbounded faith in the suc-
cess of the number. It is one of unquestionable
merit, but has not heretofore had the professional
pushing that it deserved.
A VISITOR FROM ST. LOUIS
Bert Keene, head of the Book World Publish-
ing Co., St. Louis, Mo., is spending two weeks
in New York, completing a campaign on his
firm's fox-trot song, "Hearts," in Eastern terri-
tory. Mr. Keene, who visited the offices of The
Review, stated that he has received several offers
for the above number.
FOR RECORD RELEASE SOON
"Night of Love," one of the recent additions to
the catalog of the Fred Heltman Co., Cleveland,
O., is shortly to be released by several talk-
ing machine record companies. The publisher
intends to make an extensive sales campaign on
this work during the next few months.
NEW NUMBER BY KATE ROSKOPP
"Clouds" is the title of a new waltz number
written and published by Kate Roskopp, Mt.
Clemons, Mich. Miss Roskopp, who spent sev-
eral days in New York City last week, placed
a number of songs with New York houses.
