WALTZ LEADS IN POPULARITY
"Waters of Venice" One of the Most Promising
Numbers in Instrumental Catalog of Artmusic,
Inc.—All New Publications Well Received
Artmusic, Inc., publishers of high-class songs
and instrumental selections, have a new waltz
in "Waters of Venice" which is leading all other
numbers in their instrumental catalog as far
as popularity is concerned. The number is a
piece of unusual merit. The Artmusic catalog
is divided into four sections: the "Art," "Classic,"
"Instrumental" and "Production." Saul Born-
stein, manager of the above publishing house, is
very enthusiastic over the way the trade has re-
ceived the firm's publications and feels that no
house entering the high-class field in recent years
has had a better reception. "Forever Is a Long,
Long Time," the ballad published by Artmusic.
Inc., is meeting with a good demand at all the
music stores, and its sale is increasing steadily.
GRANT CLARKE AGAIN WITH FEIST
Grant Clarke, the writer of some of the best
selling popular numbers, including "Honolulu,
America Loves You" and "There's a Little Bit
of Bad In Every Good Little Girl," has again
joined the writing staff of Leo Feist, Inc. It is
understood that Mr. Clarke has several new
songs which will shortly be placed on the
market.
E. F. BITNER IN CHICAGO
Edgar F. Bitner, general manager of Leo
Feist, Inc., has been spending the week in Chi-
cago. This is one of Mr. Bitner's regular visits
to the Chicago office of the company and the
Western sheet music trade generally.
