Song "Discovered" and Used by John McCor-
mack to Be Featured by Boosey & Co.
John McCormack, in his concert at the New
York Hippodrome on Sunday evening last, sang
as an encore "The Barefoot Trail," a song which
he "discovered" while touring the South. The
"Songs That Appeal"
RIO NIGHTS—The only worthy successor to
the "Missouri Waltz." A number which is
rapidly attaining the great popularity of the
lullaby number.
JUST A ROSK—This is without doubt the
greatest 2-4 ballad written since "Tulip and
the Rose." It is by Joe Roberts, the premier
banjoist of America.

haunting fox-trot melody. By the writer of
"Oh, Lady, Stop Rolling Your Eyes," Eddie
Cantor's big hit in the Follies.
I'VE BEEN A-LONGIN' FOR YOU—Fox-
trot song that is sweeping the country. Three
musical shows and 1,000 entertainers are help-
ing you boost.
ALPINE BLUES—The latest "blues" number,
written by "Oklahoma" Bob Albright, based
on the famous Alpine yodle.
