ITH the opening of the new show "My and the second one is covering the metropol-
Girl," at the Vanderbilt Theatre, which itan area. There is a Southern company now
apparently is destined to run successfully for playing Texas and Oklahoma and an additional
some time, the writers of one of the most suc-
cessful and certainly the most profitable shows
of last year are repeating their performance.
The boys responsible are Harry Archer and
Harlan Thompson, writers of "Little Jessie
James," which, following its New York and
Chicago appearances of last year to crowded
>pace of time with both dealer and buyer.
l'oth Archer and Thompson are young
v.r.lers. They naturally, however, did not jump
into success without tfoing through the usual
experiences of all writers. During the period
while they were awaiting recognition they con-
tinued optimistic. They wrote with some suc-
cess with the usual portion of poor produc-
tions undercapitalized or mismanaged.
With the second season of "Little Jessie
James" producing profits not only in the United
Slates but in many foreign countries, and with
the new show "My Girl" playing to crowded
houses, the period of lean years for these
writers is past. They are now in demand
by wide-awake producers, they are well known
to the music trade and no small part of the
musical comedy enthusiasts of the country are
their public.

Western company covering Illinois, Missouri

In "Little Jessie James" we had one of the
biggest successes in the popular field of last
season—"I Love You." There are two other
outstanding songs in this show, "Let's Step
Along" and "Little Jessie James."
In "My Girl" there seemingly are four real
successes, "You and I," "A Fellow Like Me,"
"Desert Isle," and "A Rainbow of Jazz."
The songs in this show are already selling
