line, and that's the guy who's "in conference."
Here's how Bill describes him. There was a
businessman who shielded himself behind that
good alibi, "in conference," when someone
called on him.
Best Edition
He rests in his office chair,
And dodges a lot of toil and care,
Smokes cigars in sweet content,
And that's how busy hours were spent—"in conference."
of the
World's Best Music
He makes the salesmen, by the score,
Camp outside his office door,
And regularly they went their way,
For he was busy all day—"in conference."
Nationally Advertised
And so he passed on—and at the gate
An angel bade him stand and wait,
And said to him with frowning brow,
Peter's mighty busy now—"in conference."

For the benefit of those who do not know Bill
as well is I do I want to say he is very modest.
What do you think of this line, coming from
him. He said: "Say, Maurice, not so long ago
the girls used to be referred to as 'skirts'—par-
ticularly around New York, Philadelphia and
Chicago. Look at them now."
I meant to tell you—Bill keeps up his good
looks by reading "Fleischmann ads." He eats
yeast while he's in the West. 1 know he does.
The day we had lunch he ate a cake of yeast
and the evidence was all over his vest.
There's only one type of guy that Bill Jacobs
is not keen on in the music business and he's
thankful there are very few of them in our

Charles K. Harris to
Make Theatrical Showing
Famous Ballad Composer Considering Coast-to-
Coast Tour With Keith Circuit—Wide Radio
Popularity
Charles K. Harris, pioneer music publisher and
song writer, has become so popular through his
radio entertainments in recent months that nu-
merous motion picture houses and vaudeville
theatres throughout the country are making bids
for his services. Incidentally, the clean, heart-
story ballads which Mr. Harris made famous
and which he has continued to write for over a
score of years are again returning to vogue.
This not only has created sales for his old-time
famous song successes, such as "Break the
News to Mother," "After the Ball" and "Al-
ways in the Way," but it has brought to quick
prominence his ballad barcarolle, "I Knew,"
and "Danger in Your Eyes."
Another Harris success is called "What's
the Matter, Sue?" This number has been intro-
duced in vaudeville by some of the best vo-
calists. It lends itself readily to novelty ren-
ditions of a style that has become popular both
in vaudeville and on talking machine records.
Mr. Harris is accepting an engagement at the
Montauk Theatre, Passaic, N. J. When the
Keith-Albee Circuit heard that Manager Louis
Granat, of the Passaic theatre, had Mr. Harris'
contract for an appearance it induced him to
consider a coast-to-coast tour, the details of
which will be announced later.
