REVIEW
SHEET MUSIC TRADE IN PORTLAND
Active
Success!
These FOUR factors are wholly responsi-
ble for the successful promotion of every busi-
ness.
Picking a good location.
Conducting a neat and attractive
store.
Employing clerks who are courte-
ous and intelligent.
Handling only merchandise of de-
pendable and known value.
"CENTURY CERTIFIED EDITION" rep-
resents the biggest value known in sheet
music.
It's equal to and in many respects supe-
rior to the best published, yet it costs your
customers but 15c and nets you 10c a copy on
every sheet hold. Besides, It's nationally ad-
vertised tor your direct benefit.
It's handling and featuring such nation-
ally known lines like "CENTURY" that makes
your road to success a sure and easy one.
Co-operation with the national advertiser
is likewise essential.

Popular Numbers
The Berardi & Coccia Music Pub. Co., of 92
Grape street, Rochester, N. Y., recently released
several new songs. Among these are "Dream
Man" and "Love Rose," both of which have
already shown indications of becoming quite
popular. Among songs this firm has released
is a waltz ballad, entitled "Tears of Our Last
Good-bye." L. R. Coccia, one of the active mem-
bers of the firm, in a recent letter to The
Review, said:
"Our publications are fast attaining a promi-
nent position, both in the professional and trade
fields. The sales demand has shown constant
increases of no small proportions and vaudeville
artists as well as orchestra leaders have taken
kindly to our issues."

PORTLAND, ORE., December 17.—The sales of the
Portland Remick Song Shop continue to increase.
Clyde Freeman, the manager of this popular sheet
music house on Washington street, says that the
new Remick waltz number, "When Shall We
Meet Again?" is in great demand. The hits that
are also in demand are "Why, Dear?", "Ken-
tucky Home" and "Bimini Bay." Mr. Freeman
had a "Mandy and Me" window as a feature last
week and it attracted a great deal of attention
from the public.
A large shipment of songs was received from
the Sam Fox Publishing Co. by the sheet music
department of Lipman, Wolfe & Co., and Kath-
leen Benoit Campbell is greatly pleased with
the consignment, which comes to them in attrac-
tive covers, which she says will attract cus-
tomers, especially at this time of year when they
are looking for something artistic for Christmas.
The songs that are the best sellers are "Only
a Smile," "Ship o' Dreams," "Lassie o' Mine"
and the two popular numbers "Invocation" and
"Heart's Delight" by James II. Rogers, the popu-
lar composer.
All of the Portland sheet music dealers say
that the new Waterson, Berlin & Snyder num-
ber, "Sunny Tennessee," is going very strong.
Among the other popular numbers at present
are "Somewhere in Naples" and "Teach Me."

found them in the Middle West and South, which
he covered recently, he said:
"The trade is apparently in a most healthy
Arot/ier 'Sunshine Of Your Smile
condition and the sales, particularly of standard
music, have been quite active. While the more
successful of the popular numbers have shown
activity, the departments find little demand for
the balance of the catalogs, which results to a
great extent in the sheet music dealers concen-
trating their attention on standard issues. The
demand for teaching pieces is on the increase
and, on the whole, the year is proving a profitable
one for the trade."
