NEW SUMMER SONG SUCCESS
"Sunbonnet Days" Proving One of the Live
Numbers in the Stasny Catalog
The new summer song "Sunbonnet Days" re-
cently published by the A. J. Stasny Music Co.
has had quite a sale despite the fact that the
Stasny organization has been pushing "Just
You," the big song hit from the catalog, and
has hardly spared any time for new issues.
Among the reasons for "Sunbonnet Days" being
successful is that it is a summer song and has
one of the most artistic title pages with a re-
produced photograph seen in some time. It con-
tains the likeness of Jane Novak, the popular
moving picture star, and creates attention im-
mediately wherever it is displayed.
THAT John Philip Sousa has received permis-
sion from the Government to take the Marine
Band to the front in France.
THAT the bandmaster is now busily engaged
in composing special marches to be played on
the French battle front.
THAT in presenting a new song to his pub-
lisher recently, a song writer declared that the
number was the result bf inspiration.
THAT the publisher, after a glance at the
song, asked sarcastically: "What do you mean
by inspiration?" "Needing the money," re- B 66
marked the writer.
THAT one composer recently placed a song
with a talking machine company because he de-
clared that it would not be sung at all the
training camps.
THAT under such conditions the song should
without doubt be in a class by itself.
THAT until he had spent a week in camp one
song writer thought that the harder he pulled
the trigger the further the bullet went.
THAT most of the new patriotic songs are
announced as "the second 'Tipperary,'" which
isn't in any sense a bad boost for that song.

'A Tear, a Kiss, a Smile" Being Featured on
Records and Music Rolls
Otto Motzan's ballad "A Tear, a Kiss, a Smile"
has been placed on the catalog of almost every
big record manufacturer in the country and it
is also to be found quite frequently in those of
music roll companies. The number of high-
class concert stars using the number also has
done much to popularize this ballad and from
present indications it should be one of the most
popular songs of its type by the time the fall
season sets in.
