TEACHING CROXTON TO SING
PRAISE FOR S. R. HENRY'S NUMBERS
A GOOD JUDGE OF MUSIC
How Peerless Record Makers Co-operate With
Dealers in the Territory in Which They Travel
Orchestra Leader Declares "Kentucky Dream"
Is the Hit of His Repertoire
Mrs. H. Walters, who is in charge of the S. S.
Kresge music department in Baltimore, Md.,
recently returned from a two month's vacation
which she reports she enjoyed immensely.
Mrs. Walters was formerly Mable Tabler, and
has had a long experience in the retail music
field. She is an exceptionally good judge of
popular songs and has the faculty of early pre-
dicting the salability of numbers.
The Peerless Record Makers, who are now
Jos. W. Stern & Co., the well-known music
touring the Southern part of the country, has
publishers, recently received a very interesting
among its members Frank Croxton and Johnny
letter from Wm. L. Ginsburg, leader of Gins-
Meyers. Meyers, by the Way, is one of the most
burg's orchestra, Denver, Colo., regarding S. R.
popular members of the team and he is personally
Henry's song successes "Kentucky Dream,"
"Pahjamah," "Himalaya" and "Tears." Regard-
ing "Kentucky Dream" he stated "The most
beautiful and wonderful of all. This waltz has
made a tremendous hit, especially the first and
second choruses. Its sparkling success shines
in the tremendous volume of applause it always
receives. People are continually wanting two
things regarding this number and they are the
same and more of it."
"SUGAR" IS PROVING POPULAR
Frank Croxton and Johnny Meyers
acquainted with hundreds of dealers in various
parts of the country. The Record Makers work
in close co-operation with the dealers in the
various cities and their method of meeting the
song-loving public does much to add to the sales
of their records in the territory visited. The pho-
tograph reproduced herewith was taken when the
boys had some leisure moments and we get
from very good authority that it represents
Johnny Meyers teaching Frank Croxton to sing
baritone. From all indications it does not appear
that he is having a hard task.
One of the songs the Peerless Record Makers
are featuring on their present trip is an Indian
love song entitled "Arizona Mona." Frank Crox-
ton recently stated that it was one of the best
numbers which he ever had the pleasure of sing-
ing. It is published by the Gabriel Pub. Co., New
York.
The Triangle Music Publishing Co. are meeting
with much success with their song and instru-
mental number "Sugar." It is being sung by a
long list of vaudeville stars and it appears to be
quite a favorite with the dance orchestras. Many
of the tajking machine record and player roll
manufacturers have recorded the number and
from all appearances it is getting unusual public-
ity. Joseph Davis of the firm is planning a big
publicity campaign in behalf of "Sugar" and
their song "Why Don't You Drive My Blues"
Away." The latter number he feels will before
the end of this season be accepted as one of the
most successful songs of the year.
