Miss Helen Moore, the soprano who lias ap-
peared at the many motion picture houses
the presentation of the Mary Pickford photo-
play "Rosita," the management arranged for
Miss Moore's appearance. She was staged in
the prologue for this picture show in conjunc-
tion with the vocal rendition of the melodious
Spanish fox-trot and song "Rosita" from the
Sam Fox Publishing Co. Catalog. Miss Moore
was attired in a Spanish dancer's costume and

picture.

Charles Lang, sales manager for the Edward
B. Marks Music Co., and Bernard Prager, assis-
tant sales manager, recently returned to New
York after completing their first trip of the
year, which started New Year's week. Both
covered different routes, including the New
England, mid-Western and Canadian territories.
In the Middle West and in New England
these hustlers found that some of the Marks
numbers had already been in demand. Among
these were "I've Been a Fool," which was listed
among the best sellers in Minnesota. "Colo-
rado," the waltz, was a favorite in many cities.
Eddie Leonard had preceded Charles Lang with
his vaudeville act throughout the country, with
the result that Lang found calls waiting for
"Oh Didn't It Rain," the famous minstrel's big-
gest hit since "Ida."
Similar reports are being received from other
sections of the country.
