Alma A. Crowley
1. A cleverly written valse brillante
which has merit and effective scoring to
commend it. Mr. Williams' composition
should prove a favorite in the parlor.
2. This number possesses what is so rare
nowadays—the merit of originality. It is
a quaint and clever conceit, full of oriental
coloring, which should become popular.

and should prove a favorite for church or
parlor. The verse by the composer is most
creditable.
2. A pretty waltz song of the popular
order. Displays little originality.
3. Mr. Friday has written a very pleas-

are quaintly sentimental. It is in common
time, key of C.
4. Mr. Gaunt has won a wide reputation
for his songs, and this clever composition
is up to the standard. It is a simple
melody in waltz time, with refrain in com-
mon time. The verse, by the composer,
tells the story of juvenile life on the East
side. It is a song that appeals to the hearts
of the masses, and on that account will be-
come a favorite.

1. While this composition is not up to
the standard of Mr. Heyendal's previous
works, it is a very creditable march, ac-
curately arranged and pleasing in melody.
It lacks individuality, nevertheless; most
acceptable.

1. A poetic and expressive ballad, the
arrangement of which shows the hand of a
thorough musician. It is written for so-
prano voice in D flat, and is a number that
should be found in the repertoire of high-
class singers. It can be had also for alto or
baritone in A flat. Mr. Chapman's verse
is as pleasing as his melody.
2. Splendid baritone song which affords
excellent opportunities for a good singer.
The spirited melody is full of color a la
militaire. Can be highly recommended.
3. This serenade is equally praiseworthy.
It is for medium voice in A minor, six-
eighth time with waltz refrain. It is a
most effective and charming ballad
throughout. The words are by the com-

expressive theme is set to Chas. Kingsley's
beautiful verse. It is suitable for mezzo-

You may have
been a dealer for many years, you may have been a tuner for a

it not well to get a little more practical knowledge?
