Melrose Brothers Music Co.
The Melrose Bros. Music Co. is the publisher
of many novelty blues and "hot" dance tunes,
such as "Spanish Shawl," "Milenberg Joys," and
a host of others. But they tell me they have
a new number which will be ready very short-
ly, entitled "The Hiobo's Prayer," which they
call "A Classic in Blue." The music is by Boys
Senter, known as the "Jazz Wizard." The words
are by Walter Hirsch. It seems the writers
staked a hobo to a good meal and the song was
evolved from the incident. As Walter Hirsch
says: "It was a dime well invested." The num-
ber is really a departure and will prove a vocal
hit as well as a decided orchestra novelty. A
hint from Walter Hirsch since his association
with the hobos: "Always put on a clean shirt
in time to avoid apologizing for a soiled one."
All this activity goes on at 177 North State
street.

Ted had this to say: "We are doing a tre-
mendous business. Our songs, 'Angry,' 'Truly
I Do,' and the semi-classic, 'Say, Mister, Have
