Jack Mills Exclusively
Well-known Composer and Arranger's Work
Will Hereafter Be Under Contract of That
House Exclusively
Jack Mills, Inc., the well-known popular
music publishing house, occupying executive
and professional offices at 148-150 West Forty-
sixth street, New York City, recently announced
that it had acquired the exclusive service, for
a long term, of F. Henri Klickmann, a par-
ticularly well-known music arranger and com-
poser.
Mr. Klickmann is a student of the piano and
violin, and his arrangements, both as to har-
mony and composition, show his early studies
under some internationally known teachers.
His most noteworthy accomplishments have
been attained in Chicago, the city of his birth,
but his fame, particularly in musical circles, is
widely spread throughout the country.
Among the well-known orchestral arrange-
ments he has made have been "The Vamp,"
"Walkin' the Dog," "Darktown Strutter's Ball,"
"Kitten on the Keys," "Some of These Days,"
"Don't You Remember the Time" and "Sweet
Hawaiian Moonlight."
Mr. Klickmann comes to the rapidly expand-
ing Mills organization well equipped to super-
vise an arranging department that has already
won an important place in the music publishing
field.

for Me," the only bad thing about which is
the title, is selling all over the country, be-
cause radio fans have heard it broadcasted by
Abe Lyman's orchestra in Los Angeles. Re-
quests have come from points as distant as
Maine and Eastern Canada. "Sleep," the tried
and true Sherman, Clay & Co. success, is still
bringing in a regular avalanche of orders, ac-

Berlin New Numbers
Meeting Wide Response
Among Most Popular Are "If the Rest of the
World Don't Want You," "Lovey, Come
Back" and "My Sweetie Went Away"
Of the newer numbers added to the catalog
of Irving Berlin, Tnc, none has shown up more
advantageously than the waltz ballad with the
"home style,'-' appealing lyric, entitled "If the
Rest of the World Don't Want You" (Go Back
to Your Mother and Dad); "Lovey Came Back,"
by Lou Handman, writer of "My Sweetie Went
Away"; a ballad fox-trot called "You," which
is one of the predominating dance successes of
the season, and a novelty comedy number en-
titled "I Love the Girl Who Kisses" (I Hate
the Girl Who Don't).
All of these numbers will be widely exploited
by the Berlin organization. The professional,
band and orchestra departments are already
actively engaged in giving the above songs pub-
licity. Plans for the full co-operation of the
various Berlin branches, together with its vari-
ous representatives throughout the country,
have been made and the trade can be assured
of a lively demand for these'issues.
The music store which maintains the right
sort of a sheet-music department inevitably
becomes the music center of the community
where it is located.
