the country where his singing met with unusual
success, obtaining re-engagements next season
without exception where he appeared during his
last tour.
His method of giving additional publicity to
his song offerings is mentioning in his pro-
grams the fact that the number just rendered
has been recorded on the Victor record or Vo-
calion record. Thus the local dealers find addi-
tional clientele and sales that would not other-
wise accrue.
Among the songs Mr. Braun has featured
during the past season is "Israel," which many
consider as a successor to "Eli-Eli." It is pub-
lished by Fred Fisher, Inc., and the publisher
contributes some of the popularity attained by
this high-class issue to the work and interest of
Mr. Braun.

THE COOPERATION OF THE ARTIST
How Leonard Braun Contributes to the Further
Popularization of the Numbers He Sings
Most concert artists feel that they have con-
tributed enough to the general publicity of a
song when they have rendered it in their pro-
grams. There are many ways, however, in which
the artist can be of additional service to the
music trade in general without lowering his
standard as an artist and without commercializ-
ing his talent.
There has recently corne to our notice- the
work in this direction of Leonard Braun, the
popular tenor, who has recorded for both the
Victor and Vocalion records. Mr. Braun has
a unique way of getting his records before the
public. Not only does this contribute to the
sale of such offerings, but he assists materially
in the exploitation of the sheet music of the
compositions.
He has just returned from a concert tour of

MUSICAL SHOWS ROUTED WIDELY
The efforts of larger show producers in re-

night stands next season are being devoted
mainly to musical shows. During the past sea-
son the few musical shows routed over the
one-night stands in most instances made money.
