Most Interesting Publication
Are Aiding in Exploitation of "I Found a Rose
in the Devil's Garden"
Adelaide Fischer, the well-known soprano,
recently sang the song "Do Dreams Come
True?", one of the suc-
cesses from the catalog
of Carl Fischer, at the
Erie Festival. The num-
ber was received with
such favor that Miss
Fischer was induced to
write the following to
the publishers:
"Just a line to tell
you that 'Do Dreams
Come True?", by B.
Sherman Fowler, met
with tremendous suc-
Adelaide Fischer
cess at the matinee per-
formance to-day. I sang it with violin obbligato
and know that the words and melody made a
great appeal to the audience.
"Kindly extend my compliments to the com-
poser.
"With best wishes for the well-deserved suc-
cess of this song, I am, Very sincerely yours,
(Signed) "Adelaide. Fischer."
B. D. Nice & Co., Inc., well-known publishing
bouse, which recently moved into its new home
on the tenth floor of Loew's State Theatre
Building, Broadway and Forty-fifth street, New
York, has just issued a special orchestra maga-
zine carrying the title Nice News.
It is the intention of the company to issue
this booklet three or four times each year and
incorporate in it much material that will prove
of value to orchestra leaders.
The initial issue contains many pictures of the
leading dance orchestras throughout the coun-
try, as well as of the orchestra leaders, most of
whom are nationally known figures. The photo-
graphs are all of good size, artistically arranged.
A page is given over to a short history of
Lee David, the exclusive contributor to the musi-
cal works of the Nice catalog. Mention is made
of his songs, "Tents of Arabs," "Romance,"
"Wond'ring," "Paper Doll" and "Sweet Laven-
der" and his coming operetta, written in collabo-
ration with Samuel Shipman, "The Kiss Charm."
Fred Fisher, Inc., is receiving the co-opera-
tion of many Victor distributors and dealers in
a campaign of publicity on the record "I Found a
Rose in the Devil's Garden." Many dealers are
making special window displays and are using
other methods to create added interest in this
song and instrumental success in addition to the
special advertising material issued by the pub-
lisher.
"Pucker Up and Whistle (Till the Clouds Roll
By)," a recent addition to the same firm's cata-
log, will be exploited by the aid of a special
campaign now being prepared.
"LIGHTNIN"' TITLE OF NEW SONO
Leon de Costa, who is connected with the
writing staff of T. B. Harms Co., has, with the
permission of John Golden, written a song en-
titled "Lightnin'," which is dedicated to Frank
Eacon, the star of the play noted above.
HENRY TELLER ON A LONG TRIP
Henry Teller, sales manager of Fred Fisher,
Inc., left late last week on a trade trip covering
Canada and larger cities in the Middle West.
Mr. Teller will attend the coming convention of
the National Association of Sheet Music Dealers,
following which he contemplates making a trip
to the Pacific Coast.
NEW BOOSEY & CO. SONG RELEASED
Much Expected of "Sweet Yesterdays," by Ar-
thur J. Lamb and Alfred Solman
Boosey & Co. have just issueel a new song by
Arthur J. Lamb and Alfred Solman, entitled
"Sweet Yesterdays." The same writers are also
the authors of the Boosey number, "The World
Can't Go Round Without You."
"Sweet Yesterdays" carries a very pretty lyric
and a melody that is quite attractive. It will,
without doubt, have popular appeal, but still can
be classed as a number of the better sort.
