W H A T ARE YOUR
PLANS?
Are you going to put "fresh energy into the
handling of Century Edition during the coming
season and add to your profits, or are you
going to sit still and complain about poor busi-
ness?
If you are going to SELL Century
Edition, we are with you, but if you are going
to groan, you'll have to do your groaning alone.

Denver Dealer Has Unpleasant Experience with
Volume Issued by Eastern Publishing House.
(Special to The Review.)
DENVER, COL., October 2.—Music dealers here
are quite incensed over the experience of a local
department manager, who, while glancing through
the leaves of a fifty-cent folio of teaching mate-
rial, came across a circular addressed to music
teachers soliciting their direct trade and offering
special discounts and terms of payment that the
dealer could not make. It seems rather hard that
the dealer has to run the risk of losing his best
customers when he sells them the publications of
certain publishing houses, unless he carefully ex-
amines these publications and throws out the liter-
ature calculated to harm his interests.
Theodore H. Northrup, the well-known com-
poser, has contracted with Les Wallace, the staff
lyric writer of the Denver Post, and these two
will issue "semi-popular classics." It is a matter
of considerable promise when two such talented
writers join forces.
