CONDUCTED BY V. D. WALSH
READY FOR ASSOCIATION OUTING
Local Music Publishers and Dealers Look For-
ward to a Busy Day
As announced in these columns last week the
Greater New York Publishers' and Dealers'
Association will hold their annual outing on
Tuesday of next week at Glenwood Lodge,
Glen Head, L. I.
Automobiles containing the members and their
guests will leave the Chas. H. Ditson Co. store
at 10 A. M. On the arrival of the party at
Glenwood Lodge a luncheon will be served,
which will be followed by a baseball game of
teams made up of music publishers on one side
and men from the mechanical reproduction
company on the other. In addition there will
be other outdoor sports, including boating and
fishing as well as swimming. A jazz band and a
number of professional entertainers will be on
hand.
PUSHING "12TH STREET RAG'
J. W. Jenkins' Sons Music Co. Giving Strong
Publicity to the Number
The "12th Street Rag," which has been quite
popular for some time, is being given some ad-
ditional publicity by the J. W. Jenkins' Sons
Mus.c Co., Kansas City, Mo., the publishers.
The song is proving a success in instrumental
form for orchestra use and has won much favor.
It is said that there are over 25,000 orchestras
playing the number. It has been recorded by
several of the larger talking machine record
companies as well as most of the player roll
manufacturers. From all indications it will be
one of the big successes during the coming
months.

MAKING OFFERS FOR SONGS
Following the sale of "Hold Me," a song
that has had more than the usual success, by
Sherman, Clay & Co., San Francisco, Cal., to
Jerome H. Remick & Co., several New York
publishers have discovered that the Sherman,
Clay & Co. catalog includes at least two other
songs which must be acknowledged as hits.
They are "Whispering" and "Louisiana." It is
said that two large offers have already been
made for the songs mentioned above.
NEW PACE & HANDY OFFICES
The Pace & Handy Music Co., Inc., which
has during the past two years occupied offices
in the Gaiety Theatre building, New York, re-
cently leased the four-story house formerly oc-
cupied by Gilbert & Friedland, Inc., 232 West
Forty-sixth street. This is opposite the club-
house of the National Vaudeville Artists, and is
considered an ideal location for music pub-
lishers' professional departments.

Shapiro, Bernstein & Co., Inc., have acquired
the former Gilbert & Friedland, Inc., numbers,
"Dance-o-mania," "Southern Sunny Smiles" and
"Mumsy."

the evening. The story was most correct in
every respect with the exception that the man-
ner of Mr. Schirmer's return was not as favor-
able as his earlier trip in the day.
The morning trip from Princeton, N. J., his
country home, to the Belmont Park Racetrack,
Queens, L. I., was made in forty-five minutes,
Norman Lott, of the Chicago office of the
Riviera Music Co., has been spending some
time at the New York office of the company,
74 Wall street. The Wall street office is only
temporary, as the Riviera Music Co. is con-
templating taking permanent quarters in the
New York theatrical district just as soon as
the space can be procured.

of the Music Publishers' Protective Association,
