NEW MARCH BY ARTHUR BER(jH
The newly organized American Guard, with
bra nches in many schools in the United States,
will have for its official march '''The American
Guard March," composed by Arthur Bergh, the
well-known musician and di rector of r ecording
for the Okeh records. "The American Guard
March" is a stirring rhythmical and musical
work, and had been dedicated by Bergh to th e
school children of America.
COMPELLED TO REPRINT AT ONCE
Boston Music Co. Issues Second Edition of
"The Night Before Christmas"
The Boston Music Co. ea rly thi s Fall placed
in the ha nds of th'e trade a musicali zed versio n
of Clement C. Moore's fam ous "The Night Be­
iore Christmas" (A Visit from St. Nicholas),
described as a spoken song by Hanna von
Vollenhoven. In preparation for the demands
of the holiday season the publisher issued an
original edition of 5,000 copies, but the mov e­
ment of thts number was so rapid that it was
neces sa ry to reprint it almost at once. The title
page is in several colors with a drawing by G.
G. Drayton, who made the Campbell soup kids
so famous.
A. J. PIRON COMIN(j NORTH
A. J. Pi ron and his famous New Orleans Or­
chestra just arrived from New Orleans and
.will probably do some recording for some of
the lar ge mechanical companies. Piron has
some new jazz numbers and at lea s t one of
them will probably be as big a hit as his famous
"Sister Kate." The Clarence Williams Music
Co. is the publisher.
