New Numbers Added
to Leo Feist Catalog
These Include "Pepita," "Nize Baby" and "I'd
Rather Be the Girl in Your Arms"
Among the new publications added to the cat-
alog of Leo Feist, Inc., is "Pepita," a new
Spanish six-eighth song by Harlan Thompson
and Harry Archer, two of the best-known pres-
ent-day writers who are responsible for such
unusual successes as "I Love You," from "Little
Jessie James," and the songs from "My Girl."
Also there is a timely topical number called
"Nize Baby," by Milt Gross, the inventor of
this character. Thompson and Archer are also
responsible for "I'd Rather Be the Girl in Your
Arms" (Than the Girl in Your Dreams). In-
cluded in these late offerings is "In a Little
Spanish Town," described as an exquisite waltz
song, atid a new fox-trot called "Kiss Your
Little Baby Good-night." This latter number is
by two sure-fire writers, Gus Kahn and Charley
Straight.

Kahn Orchestra Plays
Engagement in Chicago "Deep River" Makes an
Immediate New York Hit Changes Among Sherman,
Appears at New Palace Theatre, Latest Addi-
tion to the Orpheum Vaudeville Chain
Clay & Go. Representatives
Press Enthusiastic Over American Opera by
Last Sunday afternoon Roger Wolfe Kahn
introduced his orchestra to Chicago, headlining
the opening bill at the newly built Palace The-
atre, . the latest and largest addition to the
Orpheum chain. Kahn's organization goes into
the theatre at a record figure. The week of
October 11 will find the Kahn Orchestra top-
ping the bill at the E. F. Albee, in Brooklyn,
and the outfit winds up this visit to vaudeville
the following week with a session at the Palace,
New York.
The Chicago booking will mark the first out-
of-town "run" of the Roger Wolfe Kahn
Lawrence Stallings and Frank Harling
"Deep River," the new American opera which
was heard so much of following its opening re-
cently in Philadelphia, was brought to Broad-
way on Monday evening of last week, opening
at the Imperial Theatre.
The book and lyrics are by Lawrence
Stallings and the music is by Frank Harling,
who will be remembered for "The .pells of St.
Agnes," presented by the Chicago ypera Com-
pany last year. Lawrence Stallings is the
author of that most successful drama, "What
Price Glory," and the even more successful
photoplay, "The Big Parade." "Deep River" is
roduced by Arthur Hopkins.
The daily press, following the opening in New
ork, all commented favorably upon this new
American production. It demonstrates that we
have in America the material for a real opera,
a book quite faithfully historical and music that
runs the gantlet of the entire range of native
musical expression. Of more importance to the
music lover is the fact that this can all be done
in genuine operatic style which, while appealing
to many Americans who might not ordinarily
be operatic enthusiasts, will in addition satisfy
the most musical fastidious opera lover.
Aside from the American characteristics of
the music the most favorable comment is given
to the voices. It can be readily seen that all
of the stellar roles as well as the large chorus
have been selected with care and the result is
that, from a vocal musical standpoint, audiences
are in for a decided treat. It is done and it is
done well. The entire second act is conveyed
entirely through singing in regular operatic
style.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 2.—There have been
a number of changes in the personnel of the
song department of Sherman, Clay & Co. re-
cently, according to Ed. Little, manager of the
publishing and sheet music department of that
firm. A new man, Billy Milne, is now in Bos-
ton to cover the New England States. Ronald
Jonson, who has taken over the firm's profes-
sional office in San Francisco, was formerly
Sherman, Clay & Company's Cleveland man.
Eddie Peterson has been stationed in Detroit to
take care of Detroit, Cleveland and the Michigan
territory generally. Eddie Van is on his Fall
trip, coming through the Northwest from St.
Paul, Minn. The Denver representative, Harry
Wilson, has left for Kansas City, Des Moines
and the corn belt generally. The firm's New
York representative, Bernard Pollock, left last
week on a coast-to-coast swing around the
country, including all the principal cities, visit-
ing the dealer.
