New York Publisher Announces Many Ballad
Successes of Past in New Issues—Other
Plans of House
Charles K. Harris, the pioneer popular pub-
lisher and writer of a long list of old-fashioned
ballad successes, many of which still retain their
popularity, announces the exploitation of a new
edition made up of many old melodious num-
bers from the pens of well-known composers,
which will be marketed as Charles K. Harris
"Classical Editions."
The numbers include such well-known songs
by Victor Herbert as "Rose of the World,"
"Ask Her While the Band Is Playing" and
"Twilight at Barakeesh," Cara Roma's "Let Not
Your Heart Be Troubled," "Somebody," "Old
Friends, Old Loves" and "Don't You Mind It
Honey," Arthur A. Penn's "Nightingale," sev-
eral of Mr. Harris's own works including "I
Knew," a baracolle, "Mississippi Twilight," de-
scribed as a Southern idyl, and "Kinky Babe,"
a Southern lullaby. This edition will also in-
clude "Dream of Heaven Waltzes and Song,"
"Three Little Chestnuts" and "Just One Word
of Consolation."
Mr. Harris proposes to add to his classical
edition many modern works of well-known
writers, these to be announced from time to
time.
The Harris popular catalog will also take on
new activity and will be exploited on a na-
tional scale. The most active numbers in this
catalog are "No One to Kiss You Good-Night,"
"Danger in Your Eyes," "Without You" and
"Leading Me On."
