PUBLISH NEW CAKEWALK.
Chas. K. Harris Introduces " P i c k i n ' " on the
Old Banjo," an Instrumental Number of a
Class Popular Years Ago—Well Thought Of.
Coincident with the reported reaction in the mat-
ter of popular dances and the coming hack into
favor . of , the, old-time cakewalk comes the an-
nouncement from Charles K. Harris of the publi-
cation of a new cakewalk number full of the
Swing and "pep" that is expected of that class of
music. The new number is entitled "Pickin' on
the Old Banjo," and is by Henry Widmer, Fred
Watson and William Schultz, all of whom have
given considerable attention to its arrangement.
Meyer Cohen, manager tor Charles K. Harris,
and whose predictions are generally tempered with
conservatism, says that if the cakewalk has not
already started back into favor "Pickin" on the
Old Banjo" may be depended upon to bring it
bark.

THAT, according to one of the two music dealers
who attended the recent dinner at the Hotel Breslin,
the legitimate music dealer does the most of his
business at night and therefore cannot enjoy many
of the pleasures that are the lot of the publisher.
THAT this little piece of "info" should serve as a
tip to the active salesman or demonstrator who
does not know how to pass his evenings.
THAT there are no official exhibits of* popular
music listed at the Panama-Pacific Exposition,
which fact will not, however, interfere with that
class of music being well represented in "The
Zone."
THAT Edgar 1\ Bitner, general manager for Leo
Feist, Inc., returned to his desk Monday after a
fortnight spent in combating an attack of grippe
at home and several days of convalescence at At-
lantic City.
THAT the recent additions to the professional
staff of Chas. K. Harris were made just in time to
take care of the present rush.
THAT following the recent action of the song
writers in forming an association, about the only
branch of the trade yet for organization are the
music printers.
THAT if those same printers compare notes and
establish a credit bureau they can cause more real
excitement for some publishers that all the other
organizations combined.
THAT, from a casual inspection, most of the
music clerks pay most attention, when they pay at-
tention at all, to selling the music that most ap-
peals to them instead of that which might please
the customer.
