Through Your Tears," has been chosen for one
of the main musical themes in the Loew Rex

CANADIAN IMPORTS^SHOW INCREASE
Importation of Sheet Music From the United
States to Canada Shows Monthly Gain
As will be seen from the following figures
supplied by Ottawa, Canada's imports of sheet
music for October—the last month for which
figures are available—are in excess of those for
the preceding month. In fact, the Canadian Mu-
sic Trades Journal has been recording increases
for the past few months, the July figure having
been $21,368; August, $45,408; September, $50,-
686, and now October, $52,719. These figures
are for imports from all countries. During Sep-
te.mber and October, 1921, imports from the
United States represented a total value of $45,-
216 and $47,654, respectively.
