0 R S IDYLLS ARE CREATIVE
How the Pastoral Thoughts Suggest Old Songs of
Universal Appeal.
Q R S Idylls is the title of a new booklet containing
thoughts cleverly framed by an advertising genius
who sees the motive in events the commonplace mind
would consider negligible. The feeling of inanimate
things, the voice of the woods, the fragrance of the
spruce and the miracle that transforms the giant tree
into fine paper. This is printed:
"Were you ever just beside that hedgerow some
bright, still Sunday morning? Hear the faint melody
of a distant chime wafted on a breeze carrying along
the incense of a soft summer morn? Sense the mem-
ory of a time that never was, and a yearning groping
for expression; and, over, all, a peace beyond all
understanding? Were you, too, really there? Let's
go back there for a spell.
"No—just stay where you are and have it out all
alone with the wraith of Stephen Foster. 'Twas just
a list of songs I saw today, and "Old Folks at Home"
brought its Attar of Roses to me—and the hedgerow
and the melody of the distant chime.
"And the Spruce trees, and the Fairy, and the
wraith of Stephen Foster, and the miracle of Genius.
"Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but it's all real to me—
playerpiano and "Old Folks at Home" and all. It's
your fairy story as well as mine, now, just come true.
"May we suggest the following list of old favorites
that are fitting companions to 'Old Folks at Home'
and the sentiment in the foregoing pages—all with
words as well printed on the roll:
'•Q R S Roll 1252—Old Folks at Home. Q R S
Roll 246—Carry Me Back to Old Virginny. Q R S
Roll 167—In the Gloaming. Q R S Roll 417—Sing
Me to Sleep. Q R S Roll 2067—Sweet Genevieve.
Q R S Roll 125—Love's Old Sweet Song.
"If these wonderful songs are not in your library
you are missing much pleasure your playerpiano still
holds for you. May we send them to you?"
