land" for a big song hit in "High Jinks" and
vaudeville. They are setting a record for follow-
up successes. Jn little more than a year they have
followed "All Aboard" with "Back to Dixieland,"
words and music by Jack Yellen; "Alabama Jubi-
1< ;," by Yellen and Cobb; "Circus Day in Dixie,"
by Jack Yellen and Al Gumble, and "Listen to
That Dixie Band," by Yellen and Cobb. Each of
these numbers has met with fair success despite
the similarity of their themes. And now they have
come forward with another number entitled "Are
You from Dixie?" Witmark & Sons will publish it.
The boys also have hinted that they have an-
other Dixie number to follow this one as soon as
it gets started.
"Bill" Phillips, formerly with Remick & Co.
and the Waterson, Berlin & Snyder Co., who is
running the Melody Shop here, conducted a one-
cent sale here recently. It was an innovation in
this cky, and Bill says it proved to be a great
success. He reported the biggest business in his
history. With every copy at ten cents Bill gave
the purchaser an extra copy for another penny.
Due to the heroic efforts of busy little Murray
Whiteman, Waterson, Berlin & Snyder hits are
sweeping the town. Murray and his pluggers are
in evidence at every occasion which offers the op-
portunity for a good "plug."
Bill Phillips is beginning to do as much for
Kemick & Co. Allie Woods, a hustling little plug-
ger, is entrusted with this end of the game and
is more than making good. "Molly, Dear, It's You
I'm After" is already a hit and "Wedding of the
Sunshine and the Rose" is rapidly gaining in
popularity.
Waterson, Berlin & Snyder, 381 Main street, are
making a big :run on Irving Berlin's latest num-
bers. "Araby," "When I Leave the World Be-
hind" and "I'm Simply Crazy Over You" are being
sold special at twenty-five cents. Such hits as
"Along the Rocky Road to Dublin," "America, I
Love You," "Just Try to Picture Me Down Home
in Tennessee" and others are also going fast. •
Appearance of newspaper ads of the various,
sheet music stores indicates that there win foe ke;en
competition this winter for that branch of the
musical business. Buffalo is paying more atten-
tion to popular song hits now. Perhaps because
New York producers are opening many musical
plays here.

BUFFALO, N. Y., December 13.—This north-wind
swept city, whose inhabitants already have shoveled
snow off their sidewalks, continues to be the para-
doxical hotbed of Dixie songs. Jack Yellen and
(George L. Cobb, two song-writers who live far
from '"Tinpan alley" and who have perpetrated
more successful Dixie songs perhaps than any
other writers, are still harping on their favorite
subject, and are getting away with it.
This pair first attracted attention when they
gave Elizabeth Murray "All Aboard for Dixie-
