THREE SONGS FOR^NEW CATALOG
New Waterson, Berlin & Snyder Numbers
Placed in 15-Cent Catalog Just Announced by
That House Meet With Favor
Waterson, Berlin & Snyder have recently is-
sued three new songs which were placed in the
new 15-cent catalog- of the house. The numbers
have already been sent out to the trade and
results have been so favorable that the house
has decided that they will place more numbers
in that class during the coming season. The
first three numbers are entitled "Whose Little
Heart Are You Breaking Now," with words and
music by Irving Berlin; "In San Domingo," words
by Sam M. Lewis and Joe Young and music by
Ted Snyder, and "I'm All Bound 'Round With
the Mason-Dixon Line," words by Sam M. Lewis
and Joe Young, music by jean Schwartz.
Waterson, Berlin & Snyder are featuring these
numbers and many popular vaudeville stars are
using them. The songs are all published with
very attractive title pages.
AUBREY STAUFFER A PRODUCER
Aubrey Stauffer, composer and music pub-
lisher of Chicago, will soon make his debut as
a producing manager with a musical comedy
called "The Girl Gloria."
The score is by
himself, and the libretto, founded on "The
Comedy of Errors" (with black-face comedians
as the two Dromios), is by William Balzell.
THAT one man, a musician himself, has sug-
gested that musicians should be exempted from
military service in order that they may be in a
position to bring the nations together after the
war.
THAT judging from the playing of some al-
leged musicians we know their efforts should
entitle them to a place in the front line trenches.
THAT it is pretty near time for another suit
over the title, lyrics or melody of a popular song.
THAT the trade may look for some interesting
happenings when the Society of Authors, Com-
posers and Publishers starts suits to collect
royalties for the performance of copyrighted
works.
THAT one never hears lawyers complaining
about the ambiguity of various sections of the
copyright law.
THAT Earl Carroll will probably supply the
lyrics and music for the new musical comedy,
"Make Yourself at Home," to be produced in
the West by Aubrey Stauffer.
JEROME NUMBER_AT HIPPODROME
"The Blushing Bride and Groom" Proving an
Excellent Production Number
"The Blushing Bride and Groom," which has
been placed in the new Hippodrome show,
"Cheer Up," is one of the best comedy songs
of the year. It is published by the Wm. Jerome
Publishing Corp. Wm. Jerome, of this com-
pany, had been holding the song for several
months with the intention of placing it in a
production and its successful entry in the Hippo-
drome show shows that his confidence in the
number was well deserved.
•Edgar F. Bitner, general manager of Leo
Feist, Inc., is taking his vacation this year in
week-end trips to Eastern resorts, keeping track
of the trains with that brand new watch of his.

NOVEL SOLDIER_SONG COMING
Witmark & Sons to Issue "Then I'll Come Back
to You" in Near Future
M. Witmark & Sons will shortly release "Then
I'll Come Back to You," a new soldier boy song,
which is neither a ballad, comedy or novelty
number, but is a mixture of all. Professional
copies of the number are now in the hands of
the singers, and the professional department is
concerting all its efforts to put the song over.
Ed Morton, the well-known vaudeville singer,
originally introduced the song, and it received
an enthusiastic reception.
There are four
choruses, each one filled with a number of punch
lines that makes the audiences hearing them
ask for more.
BARBELLE HOME FROM VACATION
Albert W. Barbelle, artist for the Waterson,
Berlin & Snyder publications, has just returned
from his summer's stay in the mountains of
Pennsylvania. While away Mr. Barbelle spent
several weeks at Delaware Water Gap. He also
spent some time as a guest of Frank Waterson,
in Milford, Pa.
