MISTAKES!
These are the two greatest mistakes that :i
music store can make:
NOT carrying CENTURY CERTIFIED
EDITION at a l l OR carrying It
under cover
By not carrying it at all—You realize not a
penny's worth of benelit from the Thousands
of Polhirs Century spemls eaeli year to help
improve your nonconyright sales—And, mind
you, not another house has ever spent a red
eent to help you sell a single copy of the
same numbers which they also publish.
To carry it under cover—is forcing your cus-
tomers to inNiist on "CENTIBV," which is no
tairer to them than to yourself—And it cer-
tainly isn't lending much encouragement to
the National Advertiser to continue spending
thousands ,,f hard-earned dollars digging up
trade for YOl*.
IT IS NOT TOO LATK TO REMEDY THESE
MISTAKES!
Century Music Pub. Co.
231-235 West 40th Street, NEW YORK
PUBLISHERS PLAN CREDIT BUREAU
It is stated that the Music Publishers' Pro-
tective Association is'now considering the estab-
lishment of a credit bureau to provide for the
exchange of credit information among the mem-
bers of the organization, and to remedy certain
evils that have crept into that department of
the trade. It is claimed that certain dealers
are not inclined to meet their obligations to
publishers with any degree of promptness and
that long standing accounts are common. It is
believed that a credit bureau will serve to
remedy this condition.
Owing to the success in England of a number
of songs published by A. J. Stasny & Co., par-
ticularly "Girl of Mine," the Stasny Co. has
planned to elaborate its campaign in that coun-
try. Arrangements have been made whereby
Hilly Mason, Chicago manager of the Stasny
Co., and Robert F. Winningham, manager of
the company's Boston office, will sail for Eng-
land shortly to join the London staff of the
house. England is proving a strong market for
popular music just now, according to Mr. Stasny,
and he is prepared to take advantage of the
condition.

New Ballad Hit
WHY DIDN'T YOU
LEAVE ME YEARS
AGO
(Instead of Leaving Me Now?)
W. C. Handy and his orchestra have been
touring the South during the past few weeks,
visiting Savannah, Atlanta, Montgomery, Mem-
phis, Little Rock and other cities, and playing
to audiences that taxed the capacities of the
largest auditoriums. The orchestra features
numbers from the catalog of the Pace & Handy
Muyc Co., and naturally its appearance creates
a strong demand for those numbers for local
dealers. Among the leading sellers are "Nightie
Night," "It's Your Move Now," "Yellow Dog
Blues" and "A Good Man Is Hard to Find."

LEO. FEIST, Inc., FEIST Bldg., New York
Sidney D. Mitchell and Archie Gottler have
severed their connection with the staff of Leo
Feist, Inc., and it is stated that Mr. Gottler
plans to enter the publishing field on his own
account.

singers are programing the new ballad success

variably drew encores with it, and she again
