THAT when the demand for sheet music should
be at its best and in keeping with the reported
prosperity of the country, it is in a condition that
is disappointing to the publisher.
THAT the man who solves the riddle and tells
what real reason there is for the apparent lull
will receive the thanks of the community.
THAT when the cabarets put the ban upon a
certain song as being too "suggestive," it is pretty
nearly time that some publishers got wise to the
real situation.
THAT it would be an interesting bunch of sta-
tistics that would show just how far the profits on
the successful musical comedies and operettas ex-
ceeded the losses on the many failures this season.
THAT it is worthy of note that the music of
several of the failures was of a quality that would
have insured their meeting with success were it
not for books of decidedly low grade.
THAT it might be well for the publishers to wait
until after the first performance of the piece be-
fore signing contracts to control the music.
THAT with the ten-cent stores in the West sell-
ing music rolls at a dime a throw—rolls that are
listed at from 75 cents to $2 or more—the sheet
music dealer can look at the dealer in music rolls
with the compassion due a companion in misery.
THAT there was a slight error in the announce-
ment of the new member to the family of William
Jerome.

SOME BALLADS OF MERIT
Jerome H. Remick & Co.
MISS EMMA CARUS
Are Included in Recent Issues from the House
of Boosey & Co., of New York.
Boosey & Co., of New York and London, have
recently issued a number of ballads which are
destined to win no small share of popularity by
reason of their merits both from melodic and liter-
ary standpoints. And this brings to mind the fact
that the ballads from the Boosey house are notable
for the high character of their verse, thus main-
taining the best traditions of English song which
has been so badly abused within recent years. We
especially commend for consideration, both of
dealers and musicians, the following numbers:
"The Stars Are Shining," words by H. D. Lowry,
music by A. W. Finer; "Hey Ho, for the Morn-
ing," song by Edward Teschemacher, music by
Chas. Marshall; "Here's to the Ships," words by
P. J. O'Reilly, music by John Ireland; "A Secret,"
words by Fred G. Bowles, music by Wilfrid San-
derson; "Be Good," words by William Sawyer,
music by Franco Leoni; "Dreams of Day and
Night," words by Adrian Ross, music by Richard
H. Walthew; "Son of My Heart," words by Leo-
nora Lockhart, music by J. Parish Robertson;
"Maurapaya," words by P. J. O'Reilly, music by
W. H. Bullock; "Two Gipsy Songs," words by
Ethel Newman, music by Joan Trevalsa.
"When the Henry Clay Conies
Steaming Into Mobile Bay."
By Billy Jerome, Grant Clarke and Jean Schwartz.
Maud Raymond's encore getter in the big
production "My Best Girl."
"PRETTY
NIFTY"!!!
think so???

All "live" dealers will write at once for
our "NEW DEPARTURE" proposition,
which means a REAL SQUARE DEAL.
