One of the prominent figures in the world of
popular music a very few years ago was being general manager of the Rose Valley Co.,
Johann C. Sehmid, who as a member of the successful music roll manufacturers in Media,

interests of his friends among the music pub-

royalties for mechanical reproduction rights.
He declares that selling music rolls has some ad-
vantages over composing for the fickle public.

instrumental selections, among them being the
hit: "Garden of Dreams." Mr. Sehmid also

editions, his thorough knowledge of music well
qualifying him for that work.
