CANADIAN SHEET MUSIC IMPORTS
PROVING A POPULAR WALTZ
Impressive Figures Show Great Amount of
Music Brought Into Dominion
"Love in Lilac Time" Is Showing Up Well
Among the Season's Successes
OTTAWA, OXT., January 24.—Figures issued by
the Department of Trade and Commerce, Ot-
tawa, showing the imports of sheet music and
music books into Canada are as follows:
"Love in Lilac Time," published by the
Edward B. Marks Music Co., has, according to
recent reports from the various jobbers, at-
tained a degree of popularity which bids fair
to place it among the big waltzes of the past
several years. One of the largest jobbers in the
country, the Crown Music Co. of New York.
.is disposing of over one thousand copies of
this number a day. Mitch Marks, who is in
charge of the trade and jobbing accounts for
the Edward B. Marks Music Co., looks for-
ward to a large increase in orders.
