PROF. HOOPER DEAD.
Leader in Music World Dies at Walpole, N. H.
—Director of Brooklyn Institute of Arts.
Dr. Franklin W. Hooper, director of the Brook-
lyn Institute of Arts and Sciences, died at Walpole,
N. H., Saturday. He was a leader in the develop-
ment of music and art, and was well known in
scientific circles. He became a member of the board
of trustees of the old Brooklyn Institute in 1887.
Dr. Hooper's daughter. Miss Rebecca Lane
Hooper, graduated from Radcliffe in 1903 and in
1912 married William Franklin Eastman, of New
York. Franklin Dana Hooper, of Brooklyn, is a
son of Dr. Hooper. The director was on his an-
nual vacation trip to New Hampshire when he died.
Brooklyn can hardly ever repay Prof. Hooper for
the great work he had accomplished in increasing
interest in music and musical affairs through his
remarkable work for the Brooklyn Institute. Some
day music lovers will raise a monument to him.

THAT during the current week the interest in
the war in Europe has quite overshadowed even
the talk regarding the new fall songs.
THAT the many song writers whose inclinations
or weak royalty checks have kept them from tak-
ing a trip abroad this summer are a mighty happy
lot at this time.
THAT composing new ragtime numbers to the
music of an army in action is no regular business.
THAT despite the sneers of the skeptical the de-
cision of the Music Publishers' Board of Trade
not to pay singers is holding water, on the surface
at least.
THAT with the music dealers lining up the spirit
of organization appears to be in the air.
THAT when the music printers organize and de-
mand cash for their work, then there will be real
action.
THAT Joe McCarthy has returned to the fold
with Leo Feist, Inc., and will soon have some new
numbers ready for the trade.
THAT now is the time for the music dealers to
clean the dust off the old stocks of national songs
and display them in the windows.
THAT GUS Edwards has made still another
change, this time to join the staff of Shapiro,
Bernstein & Co.
THAT with the many other changes occurring
it is time to remodel the old professional address
book.
THAT "The High Cost of Living" (Feist) is a
topical song that, from the demand, appears to
touch the popular chord these days.
THAT the new hesitation, "Making Love" (Wit-
mark), is proving very successful, especially at
Brighton Beach, where Maurice Levy and his band
are using the number regularly.
A CONVENTION^ MANAGERS.
Heads of Professional Offices of Leo Feist, Inc.,
in Various Cities Meet to Plan Coming Sea-
son's Campaign—Entertained by House.
The application of more good business prin-
ciples to the music publishing business is to be
noted in the conference held last week by the man-
agers of the main and branch professional offices
of Leo Feist, Inc., in this city. Those present at
the conference included Phil Kornheiser, head of
the professional staff, with headquarters in New
York; Rocco Vocco, of Chicago; Billy Lang, of
Boston, and Cliff Odoms, of Philadelphia, a quar-
tet of hustlers who managed to map out a lively
campaign in the interest of the Feist publications
for the coming season. The meeting permitted the
managers to discuss ideas and plans with personal
emphasis and to arrive at a general satisfactory
understanding looking to full and complete co-
operation that would have been impossible to mail.
Following the meeting of the managers at the
headquarters in New York they were the guests of
the house for a three days' sojourn at Atlantic
City.
The demands upon the local professional staff of
the Feist have made necessary the addition of three
pianists, making thirteen in all.

NEW MUSIC FOR HIPPODROME.
Manuel Klein Busy on Score for Coming Pro-
duction at Mammoth Playhouse.
Manuel Klein is, without doubt, one of the busi-
est men in New York City just now; so busy that
the distinguished composer and orchestral con-
ductor of the New York Hippodrome has quite
forgotten how to spe'l the word "vacation." For
music and still more music is the constant de-
mand of all those engaged in producing what is
promised will be one of the greatest thrillers ever
