"AFTER ALL" A PROMISING NUMBER
Lee S. Roberts' Latest Effort Promises to Rival
His "Smiles" in General Popularity
Lee S. Roberts seems to have written a fox
trot in "After All" that will be hailed as a suc-
c e s s o r to h i s b i g hit
"Smiles." Mr. Roberts is
at times described as a
music-writing genius, and
this by comtemporary com-
posers. Be that as it may,
it is certainly a recognized
fact that he has during the
past season written about
as many successes as is con-
sidered a reasonable quota
for any one writer to turn out. In "After All"
he has a number which in the comparatively
short space of time since its release has re-
ceived unusual recognition. Jerome H. Remick
& Co., the publishers of the above song and
instrumental success, now have three fast sell-
ing numbers from Lee S. Roberts' pen.
A. C. Bruhnke, of Carrie Jacobs-Bond & Son,
is out of military service.
McKinley's New Song Success
GREATEST "JAZZ" SONG EVER PUBLISHED
THAT, as was to be expected, we are about to
be deluged with prohibition songs by many
writers.
THAT it seems incongruous that all the num-
bers issued so far have been comedy songs.
THAT one writer inquires, "How Are You Go-
ing to Wet Your Whistle When the Whole
World Goes Dry?"
THAT this writer probably never spent any
time in a prohibition district, or he'd not find it
necessary to ask such a question.
THAT now that the American Society of Com-
posers, Authors and Publishers has* a real sur-
plus in the treasury, the next question is how to
split it up among the members.
THAT after "Smiles" conies "Tears." Would
have been more logical to have reversed the
order.
THAT suggestive songs are again making their
appearance in increasing numbers, with each one
just a little more raw than the last.
THAT when the limit is reached and the au-
thorities step in, we will find the writers and
publishers apparently much surprised at the of-
ficial attitude.
THAT with the ban on the "shimmie" dance it
is probable that some of the "shimmie" songs
will receive attention soon.
THAT Jimmy Monaco, the well-known song
writer, has joined the staff of McCarthy &
Fisher, New York.
THAT Louis Bernstein, head of Shapiro, Bern-
stein & Co., is now on a trip through the West
as far as Chicago.
THAT Arthur J. Daly has brought suit for
$25,000 damages against the Talking Machine
Record Co. because, he alleges, he was not given
credit on the records for being the author of
"Cotton Pickin' Time in Alabam."
THAT the main question would seem to be
whether or not the royalties came in regularly
and satisfactorily.
THAT the United Writers and Music Pub-
lishers of America expect to open "co-operative"
professional rooms in the near future.
THAT Dave Wohlman has been discharged
from the service and has resumed his duties as
professional manager with Gilbert & Friedland.
IMITATION PROVES A SUCCESS
Lillian Fitzgerald, the vaudeville entertainer,
is quite given to imitations. Recently she saw
and heard Madame Chilson Ohrman sing
"Waters of Venice" and at her next engagement
she gave an imitation of Madame Ohrman,
which went over with such success that she
made it part of her regular turn.

TWO SONGS BY SHERWOOD
Vandersloot Music Co. Issues Two New Num-
bers by Ray Sherwood
Ray Sherwood, a Brooklyn boy, and Eastern
manager of the Vandersloot Music Publishing
Co., Williamsport, Pa., is the author of two of
the newest songs in the above firm's catalog,
both of which are having good success. They
are entitled "Nona" and "General Pershing."
Mr. Sherwood has a long list of songs to his
credit, including "When I Dream About That
Southern Rose of Mine," "Forget Me Not, My
American Rose," and "Naomi," a waltz number.
NEW STASNY NUMBER
The A. J. Stasny Music Co., who are starting
a big campaign on a number of new songs in
their catalog, will feature among other numbers,
"Welcome Home." This song, which is very
timely and appropriate, has already attained
some success and with the additional publicity
it is to receive should have a very heavy sale.
