McKINLEY MUSIC COMPANY
Additions Proving Popular With Deal-
ers—Attractive Publicity Aids Sales
The C. Arthur Fifer Music Co., Inc., Quincy,
111., has a number of songs in its standard catalog
which are having large sales at the present time.
The firm is spending much money in publicity
and some very original ideas in song exploitation
arc being inaugurated. Among the songs that
arc showing up well in this catalog is "Wonder-
'love." The firm has made the dealers through-
out the country a special thirty-day offer, and
the responses have been very gratifying accord-
ing to the officers of the company. In their
popular catalog, "When You're Lonely, So
Lonely" and "Sailing Down Manilla Bay," arc
both having big sales. Besides the publicity
given these two numbers, the firm has issued
artistic show cards and hangers that lend them-
selves readily for display by the dealers.
The C. Arthur Fifer Music Co. has inaugurated
a very large campaign in behalf of its songs in
both catalogs, and throughout the remaining
months of this season no time is to be lost by
the company in creating a demand for its songs.
THREE B. D. NICE & CO. SUCCESSES
B. D. Nice & Co., the New York publishers of
high-grade music, have several numbers that are
rot only proving popular with the bands and
orchestras, but are also programed extensively
by some of the leading vaudeville artists. In-
cluded in these are: "Tents of Arabs," "Wond-
'ring" and "Romance." In addition, Ted Lewis'
Jazz Band has recorded "Wond'ring" for the Co-
lumbia Graphophone Co., and Joseph Knecht and
his Waldorf-Astoria Orchestra lhave recorded
"Tents of Arabs" on both the Columbia and
OkeH records. Very recently "Tents of Arabs"
was one of the featured numbers on the musical
program at the Rialto Theatre, the orchestra of
which has an enviable reputation for rendering
works of the better sort.

to the trade a picturesque little circular giving
publicity to Frederick W. Vanderpool's and Louis
Weslyn's "Ma Little Sun Flow'r, Good Night."
