THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
MREVIEWflEARS
"I'ENTlhY'S" NATIONAL ADS plus the
dealer's splendid co-operation is leading thou-
sands of Music Lovers to realize that "CEN-
TURY EDITION" is the Greatest Value for
a DIME in the World.
Every new customer you get can afford and
WILL, buy more copies of "CENTURY" at
10c than they did of the high priced editions,
and their CENTURY purchases will total
greater profits for you.
This has been fully demonstrated and proven
to hundreds of dealers.
Merchants who push "CENTURY" sell five
copies where they formerly sold one.
It means more sales and more profits, and
that makes it interesting for you and us.

TIMELY McKINLEY NUMBER
A New "Welcome Home" Song That Will Prove
Very Popular Has Just Been Issued by the
McKinley Music Co.—Al. Brown the Author
•CHICAGO, I I I . , December 2.—The McKinley
Music Co. are coming out with some strong
"transition" numbers, that is, songs especially
adapted to the post-war period. They have
brought out a decidedly peppy number with an
irresistible melody, entitled "E-Yip-Yow! Yan-
kee Boys, Welcome Home Again."
On "Crazy Thursday," the day of the prema-
ture peace celebration, Al. W. Brown, who has
written so many good things for McKinley,
called on Elizabeth Murray at the Congress.
While the tumult was going on outside he sat
right down and wrote a rough sketch, so to
speak, of the words and music of the song.
Elizabeth hailed the inspiration with delight and,
seizing the manuscript, ran down to the Pom-
peiian Room and sang it. Here's the chorus:
!
E-Yip-Yow! Yankee boys, welcome home again,
Proudly does Old (ilory wave;
We're strong for you, we've waited long for you,
You stood the tide of battle so brave.
There's nothing too good for our heroes,
We'll have a jubilee so grand;
E-Yip-Yow!
Yankee boys, welcome home again!
Welcome back to Yankee land.
McKinley's New Song Success
GREATEST "JAZZ" SONG EVER PUBLISHED
THAT a recent addition to New York's music
publishing firms is the Entre Nous Music Pub-
lishing Co.
THAT, inasmuch as "entre nous" is French for
"between us," we trust the circulation of the
company's prints will not be as limited as the
name might imply.
THAT incidentally the same company has re-
leased a new patriotic number entitled "Amer-
ica, Our America."
THAT Finnigan's famous phrase "Off Agin, on
Agin" might well be applied to the relation of
some song writers with their publishers.
THAT at least one publisher is declared to
have received order for copies of supposedly
dead numbers, with which he showered the
crowds on Broadway on Peace Day.
THAT Al Jolson and Jean Schwartz now ap-
pear as a regular song-writing team.
THAT the peace songs and homecoming songs
are appearing thick and fast, as was expected.

"The Heart of a Rose," by Florence Methven,
Proving a Distinct Success as Sung by Lark
Taylor in That Production
Brought together by the editor of a magazine
suggesting a drawing for Marian Gillespie's
charming verses, "When You Look in the Heart
of a Rose," Florence Methven, well known as a
contributor of sketches and water colors, as
well as a composer of songs, saw the hidden
beauties of the lyric as a melody ballad, and
was enthused to such an extent by the lines:
"Dear little rose, with your heart of gold,
Dear little rose, may your petals fold,
My secret sweet, I will trust you to keep,
Deep in your heart 'twill repose"
that she composed what is considered by
competent critics to be a sweet, singable melody,
replete with delicate harmonies, and destined to
be a" success.
Captain Bruce Bairnsfather, the famous Eng-
lish cartoonist and soldier, creator of those droll
characters, "Ole Bill," "Bert" and "Alf," during
his recent visit here was guest of honor at a
dinner where Miss Methven played and sang her
song. He was greatly impressed with it, and
had it interpolated in his war play, "The Better
'Ole," which is such a pronounced success in
New York, wherein it is sung delightfully by
Lark Taylor. Leo Feist, Inc., are the publishers.

Bernstein & Co., Inc., left New York early this
week on one of his regular trips to Chicago.

FEATURED BY CONCERT SINGERS
"Garden of Dreams," from the- catalog of
Hinds, Hayden & Eldredge, Inc., is proving a
popular number with concert singers. During
the fall season it has been programed by a large
number of artists and the reception it has re-
ceived is a compliment to its merits. The pub-
lic, too, has shown its approval of the song and
the sales during the past few months have been
on the increase. Altogether it seems a substan-
tial addition to the high-class catalog of the
above publishers.
COHEN CO. ISSUES NEW SONG
The Meyer Cohen Music Publishing Co. are
the publishers of a new song entitled "We'll All

ville star, introduced it during the past week, and
the title page of the new number will carry a
-reproduction of her photograph as she appears
on the stage.
