the country in their

NEW BOY SCOUT NUMBER
A PEPPYJ-OX TROT
Harry Carroll, known as one of the best
composers of popular music at the present day,
and Stanley Murphy, who lias written several
very successful numbers, have combined their
forces and written a new song dedicated to
the Boy Scouts of America, entitled "Be a Good
Scout." This number, which is published by
J. H. Remick & Co., has had a very good sale
since its recent release.
Chas. K. Harris will shortly issue a new song
which is announced as the successor to "Ball-
in' the Jack."
The number is entitled
"Scratchin' the Gravel," and is full of "pep" from
start to finish, and according to those who
should know, makes one of the best fox trots
of the season. The number is by Jack Yellen,
Chas. Pearce and Perry Bradford.

U«7-I|*» BROADWAY, NEW YORK
CHICAGO, III., August 2.—The McKinley Music
Co. has just brought out a new number that
gives every appearance of being a wonderful
success. It is the work of Roger Graham and
Maceo Pinkard. It is called "I'm a Real Kind
Mamma Lookin' for a Lovin' Man," and is on
the style of "I Ain't Got Nobody," which was
popularized by Sophie Tucker and with which
she made such a tremendous uproar. Sophie
is very enthusiastic over the new number, and
is already using it at the Islesworth Hotel at
Atlantic City. In a recent telegram to the Mc-
Kinley Co. she said, "Kind Mamma" is a big
success and is better than "I Ain't Got Nobody."
Some great plans are on the fire for putting it
over in good shape and already it is being heard
around Chicago's cabarets with considerable
frequency.
Other McKinley songs that are selling big at
the present time are "Stepping on the Puppy's
Tail," a successor to "Walkin' the Dog" and
"Saxophone Sam," a great number that is be-
ing featured by the six Brown Brothers, whose
saxophone sextet was the hit of the musical
comedy "Chin-Chin."
The McKinley Co. is getting lots of its num-
bers in record lists, "I Ain't Got Nobody" be-
ing an Victor, Columbia, Emerson and Little
Wonder records, with the demand* for it in-
creasing weekly. "Darlin' " and "My Fox-Trot
Girl" are Victor August issues and are having
a big sale. "When Shadows Fall," "The Hour
of Memory" and "That Cabaret in Honolulu
Town" are others that are doing well.
The McKinley Co. has fifty new McKinley 10-
cent numbers that will be ready September 1
for its big list of agents, and as the company
is looking very optimistically to the coming
fall, big plans are being made accordingly.
