A LIVE NEW HOUSE ORGAN
The Century Music Co. Issues First Number of
"Between Us"
The Century Music Co. a short time ago is-
sued their first number of a house organ, "Be-
tween Us," published for the mutual benefit and
welfare of the Century Co. and their dealers.
The first issue is filled with timely suggestions,
some philosophy and some material of the
lighter sort. An editorial entitled "Collective
Experience" states the purpose and object of
the organ. Among other things, a prize of $10
is offered for the best suggestion, based on ac-
tual experience, which will be published in the
next issue of the paper. A feature article states
that Bradstreet's report that "over 80 per cent
of business failures are non-advertisers." This
should encourage dealers to sell advertised
goods, and in addition advertise themselves.
BEATING THE PROHIBITION GAME
Kin Hubbard, the well-known newspaper art-
ist, who has become famous with his character
sketches of "Abe Martin," which are reproduced
in hundreds of newspapers throughout the
United States, announces that "Keep The Home
Fires Brewin' " is the title of a new song.
