Valentino in "Monsieur Beaucaire"
Rudolph Valentino's first release, "Monsieur
Beaucaire."
The song has a very unusual melody and has
been selected as the official love theme. It was
composed by Mel Shatter. A very • extensive
campaign is being planned for its exploitation,
in addition to the tie-up that will be effected in
conjunction with the picture, in every city where
it is to be shown.
"Red Red Rose" was not specially written
for the picture production, but the melody and
lyric fitted it so well that it was decided to
effect the picture tie-up, in addition to the
regular campaign that the song is to receive in
the Fall.

Chappell-Harms, Inc., who recently inaugu-
rated a campaign on the two ballads, "My
Thoughts of You" and "In the Garden of To-
morrow," has received a letter f rom Elsie
Baker, the well-known concert artist, which
speaks for itself and is a tribute to the merit and
wide appeal of these new offerings. The letter
read:
:
"Gentlemen: Beg to acknowledge receipt of
your recent publications, 'My Thoughts of You,'
by Tilden Davis, and 'In the Garden of To-
morrow,' by Jessie Deppen. These beautiful
songs are very singable in their melodic lines
and possess a most fitting text of delicate senti-
ment. No doubt you will be glad to hear I am
programming them at all my concerts this sea-
son and have just finished recording them for
the Victor Talking Machine Co.
"I always welcome the Chappell publications,
for I find them to be songs of exceptional heart
appeal and most excellently written.
"Thank you kindly for the copies of 'My
Thoughts of You' and 'In the Garden of To-
morrow' and 1 want, incidentally, to congratu-
late the publishers of such exquisite bits of
melody. Most cordially yours,
"ELSIE BAKER."

BEGINNING OF GREAT EXPERIMENT TO PROVE'
"YOU CANT CO WRONG WITH A FEIST SONG."
After more than 25 years of painstaking and
consistent effort to drive home the slogan, "You
Can't Go Wrong With Any Fefst Song," Feist has
finally arrived!
The good man in the cartoon above is sending
the fair flapper out upon her journey thru life
under the protecting influence of a Feist song,
bearing the well known slogan.
The cartoon is taken from the current issue of
"College Humor," and originally appeared in the
Cornell "Widow."
Say 'Peace'" has been arranged for mixed
voices with soprano solo. A three-part chorus
for women's voices is also in the list, entitled
"Hark, Hark, an Angel Throng," and should
sell well.
New Oliver Ditson Songs
Among the new songs issued by the Oliver
Ditson Co. are "The House and The Road,"
poem by Josephine 1'reston Peabody, music by
Mrs. M. H. Gulesian; "The Primrose," words
by Robert Herrick, music by John Tasker
Howard; "The Great Farewell," song by Bruno
Huhn, for all voices; and an addition to the
songs by Werner Josten, entitled "Torments of
Love," from an anonymous lyric.
Defining Special Knowledge
Golding's Music Co., 294 Carlton street, Win-
nipeg, Manitoba, Can., some time ago forwarded
to its customers a little card which is worthy
of note and is a tribute to the better class of
successful music dealers. The card was headed
"A Specialist," following which was the Web-
sterian definition, "A person who has studied
and acquired specific knowledge of a subject."
There followed the house announcement: "We
specialize in music and our intimate knowledge
of this business (which can only be acquired
by years of actual experience) is acknowledged
to be unequaled in the city."
