His Own Composition Is Popular—Tour
Draws Big Audiences
Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra, now tour-
ing the country playing concert engagements, is
featuring among other popular numbers a song
written by himself, entitled "When the One

in all his programs by Morton Downey, who

tion.

among the most important of this season's offer-
ings. His appearance in every city where he
has conducted has brought forth packed houses
of music lovers, with the result that the num-
bers he renders, including his own "When the
One You Love Loves You," are among the
most popular sellers in the localities visited by
his organization. The above song is published

Ernest R. Ball's new song, "West of the Great
Divide," is duplicating the success of his earlier
favorites, such as "Love Me and the World Is
Mine," "Let the Rest of the World Go By" and
"Mother Machree." Though out only a few
weeks, it has already appeared on the programs
of such well-known artists as Orville Harrold,
Craig Campbell, (Mark Morrell, and was used
twice as a special feature at the Capitol by the
tenor, A. P. Bomberger. Ernest Ball's numbers
still retain their perennial popularity, selling
year after year. Of its kind, it is one of the out-
standing repeat sellers of the trade.
