songs by R. E. Smith which take for their
atmosphere some outstanding Far West objects.
They are entitled "Mount Rainier," "Grand
Canyon," "General Sherman Tree," "Crater
Lake" and "Lake Tahoe." R. E. Smith is also
responsible for a new Indian cycle which inas-
much as it is noted as Book 1 is probably the
forerunner of similar publications.
Fall in Line!
A sheet music store without
"CENTURY EDITION" is about
as complete as a gent's furnishing
store without Arrow Brand collars.
The only difference is the latter has
advertised competition, while Cen-
tury has none.
Century stands alone in helping
you dealers sell sheet music through
National Magazine Advertising.
Surely this deserves your recogni-
tion.

Some Promising Numbers in the Score of the
Production Now at New Amsterdam Theatre
—Harms, Inc., the Publishers
A new Florenz Ziegfeld production known as,
"Betsy," and in which is featured Belle Baker,
of vaudeville fame, opened recently at the New
Amsterdam Theatre, New York City. As is
usual with a Ziegfeld production the show is
unusually elaborate, well staged, has good danc-
ers and not a few important songs.
While Belle Baker is the outstanding enter-
tainer the show does not lack for other im-
portant members, including Al Shean, Jimmy
Hussey, Allen Kearns, and Borrah Minnevitch
and His Harmonica Orchestra, which is a no
small attraction in itself.
The book is by Irving Caesar and David
Freedman, and the lyrics are by Lorenz Hart
and Richard Rodgers. The dances are staged
by Sammy Lee.
The outstanding numbers published by
Harms, Inc., include "Come and Tell Me," "If
1 Were You," "Sing," "Stonewall Moskowitz
March," "You're the Mother Type," and "This
Funny World." In addition one of the feature
songs of Belle Baker is the new Irving Berlin
number "Blue Skies" published, of course, by
Irving Berlin, Inc.

pie of Music now being built in New York.
Kalman has also agreed to go to America
lo direct the overture at the first night per-
formance. Herbert Stothart will conduct the
rest of the performance.
Hammerstein and Stothart have been here for
Mjveral weeks looking over German operettas
and revues and interviewing operetta com-
posers. Stothart will spend two months with
Kalman at Vienna to assist him at composing.
"Stothart knows just what the American pub-
lic wants," observed Hammerstein, "and while
every note of music will be Kalman's, he will be
able to write an American score with Stothart's
aid, while in previous Kalman operettas others
have written American interpolations which
wen- wrongly credited to Kalman and which
did him more harm than good."
Kalman is a man of many superstitions. He
believes, for instance, that it is unlucky to pro-
duce an opera for the first time in a new opera
house. Hammerstein and Stothart had, there-
fore, lo promise to produce the new operetta
