THE OPPORTUNITY
There is eroing to he a larger demand than
ever for CENTURY EDITION this Fall and
Winter from regular customers and those who
will buy it for the first time. One of the rea-
sons is that the supply of German Editions
has been cut off by the war and the demand
for most of that music will be filled with
CENTURY EDITION and will continue to be
filled with CENTURY EDITION. It's the great
opportunity for the best in American music,
and CENTURY EDITION fills the bill.

RELEASE PRODUCTION NUMBERS.
T. B. Harms & Francis Day & Hunter have
made arrangements to release several of their more
prominent production numbers, formerly restricted,
for the use of the profession in general, and have
appointed Jack Robbins manager of the professional
department. The new departure should create a
strong fresh demand for the numbers so released
for the dealers.
Another Big Waltz Ballad Success
THAT the incidental music for "Ruggles of Red
Gap," which will open at the Fulton Theatre on
December 24, has been composed by Sigmund Rom-
berg. The music is incidental and the piece is not
a musical comedy.
THAT plugging in the Automat Restaurant during
the luncheon hour is reported to be the latest stunt
of an enterprising publishing house.
THAT, through the medium of a "critical"
theatrical weekly, Feist's "M-O-T-H-E-R" song is
receiving some backhanded publicity that is probably
selling a good many copies of the number.
THAT Charles K. Harris has discovered a new
form of perpetual motion, by adapting his song
titles and ideas to photo-play scenarios and then
using his original scenarios for titles and lyrics
of new songs.
THAT Franz Lehar's latest operetta, "The Star
Gazer," is now in rehearsal in Berlin and is sched-
uled for production on New Year's Eve in the
German capital.

Oscar Hammerstein was rather startled a few
days ago when he sat down to dinner at the Tray-
more Hotel at Atlantic City to hear the orchestra
play a waltz which he composed many years ago in
a sentimental inspiration. The famous impresario
had quite forgotten that he ever wrote the composi-
tion, which is called "The Mia Cara Waltz," and
the strains of his music immediately caused him
to remember that he had received no royalties
for the composition for several years. When he
returned to New York the first thing Mr. Hammer-
stein did was to call up the music publishers who
published the waltz and tell them that he heard a
sound like royalties down at Atlantic City. The
result was a substantial check, long overdue, to the
impresario.
