THE
OPTIMISM IN PHILADELPHIA
Lo cal Dealers All Forecast Heavy Demand for
Sheet Music During the Fall Months
PHILADELPHIA , PA. , September 17. -The singin g
public is in tune with th e publishe rs a nd dis­
tribu tors of pop ular mu sic, or perha ps th e latte r
ha ve attuned themselves to the pop u lar demand,
but, at a ll events, the out look fo r the Fal l an d
clo sing period of this yea r's bu siness unq ues­
tionably is bri ghter than it has been for seve ral
yea rs. Ho wever, an eve n more satisfadory con­
dition of affairs lies in th e fa ct that bu ying ha s
been more a dvanced and in larger volume up to
this mid -month than for a n y sea son sinc e the
great war period. The v e r y conc r e t e fact on
which the tr ad e bases its pred ict io n of a rec­
ord-b rea king season li es in the circumstance of
the large number of reorders already in and ac­
tu a ll y before the o rdin ari ly busy seaso n h as
gone into its fu ll strid e.
Th e r easons for this excc ll e nt tra de of to-d ay
and th e sp le ndid prosp ec t s for to-morrow , next
week and the re s t of the year ha ve, in dea ler
opinion , a t wofo ld basis-the lesse r of impor­
ta nce being· the general in crea se in the buying
power of th e pub li c w ith a resumption of in­
dustrial activities after a considerable lull in
man y; but, to a lar ger exte nt, the much clo ser
co-op erat ion , daily incr easing in vol ume be­
tween t he purveyors to popu lar am usement suc h
as the legitim ate s how house s and the film
hou ses and th e pub lis hers of bo th voca l a nd of
in st rumental music. In t his cit y part icu larly,
and w h e rever the connections of the Keith
vaudev ill e and the Stan ley Co. of "\meri ca are
mad e, the presen tation of vaudevill e with films
in film houses and of films w ith vaudev ill e in
vaudevi lle house s has done much to open the
way for brin gi ng home to the peop le popular
so ng an d in s tr ul'n e nta l h its. Th e tic-up between
aut hors and pub lishers on the one ha nd a nd of
producer s on the other is c loser than ever be­
fore . In a ll of the popul a r cafes' and in the
dan ce halls the attract ion of th e latest musical
hi ts is featured . Rea ll y excellent artists a r e
m a king the r ou nds and the hi gh character of
their re ndition s is a contr ibutin g iactor to the

the p ubl ic. Hand in hand with this popul a ri za­
tion of lates t son g a nd dane<' hits is a lso th e
campaign on class ica l m us ic, both vocal an d in­
s t rumeil tal. In all the conce rt s given by the
seve ral band s w hi ch during the Summer season
gave pllbli c co nce rts under municipa l direction
a nd in the great parks around Philadelphia art­
ists of qua lit y also appea r ed, r e nderin g many
clas s ical selec tions and thus developing a taste
for thi s chara cter of mus ic. The tr ade it self
full y has co-ope rated in this movem e nt and in

vance mid- Summer noti ficati on se nt out to mu ­
s ic a nd s in ging teac hers of th e select ions w hi c h
this publishing ho u ~e would feature thi s Fall.
lVla ny of th e instru ctors took ad vanta ge of this
opportunity for r ece IvIng earl y su gges tion s,
with the conseq ue nce that thi s part icular firm
ha s been ab le during the ordinarily du ll S um­
. mer season to bo ok up an enti re ly satisfactor y

a matter of fact, a lr ea d y en joyed a consid erab le
amount of reorder~. Th ese are some of the rea­
