LATEST OENNETT RECORDS
numbers than these. No. 5447—Jealous, fox trot, Lit-
tle, Malic and Furch, and Shine, fox trot, Dabney
(The Vagabonds). The vocal chorus in "Jealous"
adds a novel touch to this unique recording and this
together with "Shine" make two swinging, rollicking
numbers most easy to listen to.
Popular Vocal: What Does the Pussy Cat Mean
When She Says "Me-ow"?, Pease, Granlund and Nel-
son, and He Looks at Her and Then He Goes (Ha-
Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha), Rose and Henderson (Kaufman and
Ryan. Duet).
Irish Fiddler—The Highland Bonnet, schottische,
and Kitty's Wedding (The Rambler) medley of jigs
(James Morrison, Fiddler).
Foreign—Poeta E Contadino (Poet and Peasant),
symphonic march, R. Orlando, and Inglesina (Scherzo
Marciabile) (Little English Girl), D. Delle Cese (G.
Iasilli and His Symphony Band).

The new Gennett records out this week are listed
in the new folder:
Green Label No. 10090—In the Garden of Tomor-
row, Graffe and Deppen, and Song of Songs, Lucas
and Moya (Henry Moeller). The rhythm and beauty
of these enchanting melodies appeal to all who hear
their exquisite passages. They are both sung with
strength and tenderness in the rich tenor of Henry
Moeller. Both will stir within you full appreciation
of the color and genuine warmth of the themes of
each.
For Dancing: No. 5423—Mother's Boy, fox trot,
Conzelman, and Patricia Mine, fox trot, Bestor-Con-
zelman (Joie Lichter's Strand Symphonists). Mother's
Boy and Patricia Mine are full of ingenious musical
effects and both make good dance numbers. Joie
Lichter's Strand Symphonists never played better
