SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., February 11.—Joseph Skil-
ton, traveling representative for G. Schirmer,
Inc., New York, has been visiting the local
sheet music trade in the interest of his firm.
He stated to-day that one of the outstanding
new numbers in the Schirmer catalog is "Out
of the Mist," by Lee Roberts, composer of the
celebrated war song, "Smiles." Mr. Roberts is
now a local radio and phonograph merchant.
Mr. Skilton stated that "Out of the Mist" is a
charming song and is growing in popularity
everywhere due to its wide use on radio pro-
grams.
