"LOVE'S DREAM" PROVES POPULAR
New Hinds, Hayden & Eldredge Number Is Dis-
tinctive and Original in Treatment
Among the songs of recent issue by Hinds,
Hayden & Eldredge, Inc., is a number by Fran-
ces Stone Mason and LeRoy M. Rile entitled
"Love's Dream." It is, as its title suggests, a
love song, but not of the ordinary species, as
there is much about it that is quite distinctive
and original. Both the words and music are
of the very best, and the. publishers seem to
have made a special effort to give it a title
page of unusual attractiveness, and in this they
have succeeded. The number on the whole is
a fitting addition to the company's catalog of
high-class works.
A NEW SOUTHERN LOVE SONQ
Waterson, Berlin & Snyder, Inc., have just
issued a new song entitled "I Miss That Mis-
sissippi Miss That Misses Me," a Southern love
song carrying unusually attractive lyrics and
melody. The above firm is going after the num-
ber in their usual energetic manner and we may
expect to hear it frequently in the near future.
McKinley's New Song Success
THAT E. T. Paull's patriotic song "Hurrah! for
the Liberty Boys, Hurrah!" is being featured
strongly in the Liberty Loan drive.
THAT, judging from the number of song writers
who have enlisted or been drafted, the United
States Army should not lack for new and orig-
inal melodies.
THAT the war does not appear to discourage
ambitious new concerns from entering the music
publishing field.
THAT the list of so-called war songs continues
to increase and a surprising number of them are
getting over.
THAT the music supply problem is growing in-
creasingly serious for the publishers, owing to
paper shortage and other troubles.
THAT a McCormack record recently sold for
$1,000 for the benefit of the Red Cross.
THAT the royalty to the publisher on that par-
ticular record was exactly two cents, less allow-
ance for breakage.
THAT a new song published by Leo Feist, Inc.,
entitled "If He Can Fight Like He Can Love,"
is proving a great applause-getter in the vaude-
ville houses.
THAT Howard Johnson, the well-known lyri-
cist, will be called to the colors on April 26.
THAT Howard will now have a chance to sing
the other fellows' songs as well as his own.
NEW WAR SONG PROVES A SUCCESS
"Hello Central, Give Me No Man's Land" Be-
ing Featured by Al. Jolson
The latest Waterson, Berlin & Snyder song,
"Hello Central, Give Me *Mo Man's Land," has
already been accepted as a successor to the
company's big hit, "Just a Baby's Prayer at Twi-
light," and is being featured by a great number
of professional singers. One of the first to
realize the possibilities of the song was Al.
Jolson, the Winter Garden star, who introduced
it in "Sinbad," singing the words for the first
time from the manuscript.
"'Round Her Neck She
Wears a Yeller
Ribbon"
(For her lover who is fur-fur
away)
This comedy song of the Western
Training Camps is even funnier
than the title.

A LIVELY WITMARK TRIO
Three Numbers That Are Proving Distinctly
Popular Just at This Time
At the present time M. Witmark & Sons have
a most popular trio of songs in their catalog.
The first of these is Jimmy Monaco's lively
novelty "I'm Going to Follow the Boys," which
is widely featured in theatrical circles. Then
comes a new Irish song, "She's the Daughter of
Rosy O'Grady," which is hailed as a second
"Annie Rooney," and is being featured by Pat
Rooney and Marion Bent, and others. The last
of the trio is the live ballad, "He's Got Those
Big Blue Eyes Like You, Daddy Mine," by Al
Dubin and Lew Wilson.
REMICK SONG HELPS LIBERTY LOAN
FEATURED AT COMPOSERS' FESTIVAL
On the closing day of the second American
Composers' Festival held at the John Wana-
maker Auditorium, which was reported in a pre-
vious issue of this paper, the M. Witmark &
Sons song "Design" was especially well received.
Charles Harrison, the well-known concert singer,
rendered the number, and it was necessary for
him to repeat it several times.
"What Are You Going to Do to Help the
Boys?" the Liberty Loan st>ng, published by
J. H. Remick & Co., is proving one of the fea-
tures in creating enthusiasm at meetings called
to boost the drive. A large number of music
stores have given their windows over for the
display of the title pages of the number, and
in many other ways it is serving the purpose for
which it was written.
