JEROME CO. SONGS IN VAUDEVILLE
Loo Feist, Inc., is startling Publishers' Row witli
its success. The Feist organization in this city
is certainly taking advantage of the song's popu-
larity and is capitalizing the publicity it is get-
ting. The Sunday Tribune carried almost a full
page ad. featuring "Hawaiian Butterfly" and the
new Irish song, "You Don't Have to Be Irish to
Be Welcome in an Irishman's Home." The same
advertisement has been made into posters which
are being sent to dealers in this territory, who
seem to be displaying them conspicuously.

"Hong-Kong," the song which has had such
a successful, call as a music roll "number, having
been issued with the popular Jazz arrangement,
has been sold by its publishers, Buck & Lowney,
of St. Louis, to Leo Feist, Inc., New York. This
number is the jazziest of the Jazz and as the
Feist organization has the facilities for getting
a song before the public on a large scale, it
looks as if "Hong-Kong" would get its full
measure of publicity. Its music roll history
shows it to be a number which will deserve all
it receives.
