THREE PROMISING NUMBERS.
The J. S. Unger Music House of Reading, Pa., has
just issued orchestrations for "Carolina, I'm Coming
Back to You"; "Dreams, Just Dreams," a waltz bal-
lad which is already making quite an impression on
the radio orchestras throughout the country. "Do
Like I Do." It is not often that a small house issues
three numbers of such unusual merit at one time,
and perhaps that is one of the reasons why the J. S.
Unger Music House is receiving so many inquiries
from leaders throughout the country for these num-
bers. Judging by present indications there is every
chance for these numbers to go over as hits.
