THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
FILM AND MUSIC SYNCHRONIZED
French
Engineer Invents Apparatus Which
Apparently Solves the Problem
A description of what seems to be a success-
ful effort in the synchronism of music and the
film is given in a recent issue of a French pub-
lication entitled L'lllustration.
The story describes the experiments of a
French engineer named Andreau who, instead
of trying to make the orchestra leader follow
the picture as has been the usual practice of
experimenters, has reversed the process and
makes the picture follow the orchestra leader.
An instrument which he has invented allows
the orchestra leader or one of his musicians to
control the speed of the film in accordance with
the rhythm of the music. The speed of the
film can be altered in 150th of a second from
ten to twenty-eight images a second, or to any
figure between by a touch of the thumb.

"FANCIES" NEW WITMARK FOX-TROT
"FASCINATION" PROVES POPULAR
New Number by Fleta Jan Brown and Herbert
Spencer to Be Strongly Exploited
New Jack Mills Fox-trot Declared to Be a Hit
at Atlantic City
Fleta Jan Brown and Herbert Spencer have
just written a new fox-trot of much promise,
entitled "Fancies," and published by M. Wit-
mark & Sons. The new piece will be strongly
featured by the Witmark house and orchestra
leaders who have already tried it out are de-
clared to be very enthusiastic regarding its pos-
sibilities. Brown and Spencer will be remem-
bered as the writers of "Underneath the Stars."
To-day's reports from Atlantic City are to the
effect that the latest Jack Mills fox-trot song,
"Fascination," is proving one of the real hits
of that resort. Among those who have been
loud in their praise of the number have been
Chas. F. Strickland, orchestra leader at the Mil-
lion Dollar Pier, and Paul L. Specht, of the
Alamac Hotel, both of whom have written let-
ters regarding the song. Incidentally, "Fasci-
nation" will soon appear in several talking ma-
chine record and music roll lists.

Schirmer's Library
Over thirty years ago the first volume of Schirmer's Library was published. Today, number-
ing over 1,400 volumes of the world's greatest classics, it is an institutional edition of music
second to none in the world. The wide scope of the Library vies with its authoritativeness in
being its cardinal feature. Musicians everywhere, especially educators, admire and consistently
use it—they will take no other edition imitating it.
