COLUMBUS PEOPLE NOT JAZZ FANS
SHEET MUSIC DEMAND IN PORTLAND
Only One Jazz Selection Asked for by Patrons
at Band Concert—Vote for Classics
Goodly Number of Songs Finding Popularity
With the Public at the Present Time
COLUMBUS, IND., September 6.—That Columbus
people are not jazz fans was demonstrated at a
Saturday night band concert when announcement
was made that the audience might select the
numbers to be played at the next concert. Per-
sons were requested to hand slips of paper to the
band director with the names of their favorite
selections written thereon. Of more than fifty
slips handed in only one called for a jazz selec-
tion, "Ain't We Got Fun?" The others named
classical and patriotic music.
PORTLAND, ORK., Sept. 9.—"Love Sends a Gift
of Roses," a new number by T. B. Harms, Inc.,
is very popular and a good seller in Portland,
according to Louis Mack, the sheet music
dealer.
The sales in the sheet music department of
the Remick Song Shop are excellent, according
to May Shurr, the manager of the department.
Miss Shurr says that the most called for songs
this week are "Kentucky Home," "Why, Dear?"
"Emaline" and "Golden Sands of Waikiki."
"I Like It," the new Berlin song, is having
a big sale in the sheet music department of
Seiberling & Lucas, according to Miss Pearl
Brandt, the manager. Miss Brandt says that
the two popular Remick hits, "Haunting Me"
and "Kentucky Home," are much in demand, as
well as Sam Fox's "Na-jo" and the Feist num-
ber, "Peggy O'Neil." The hits from the opera
"Irene," which played in Portland several weeks
ago, are still much called for in all the sheet
music departments.
Portland was visited recently by John J. A.
Kane, the field representative of the Theo. Pres-
ser Co., of Philadelphia. Mr. Kane has the
entire territory west of Chicago and has just
completed a tour of his territory and said that
he found business conditions on the upgrade
everywhere.
NEW MUSIC STORE IN AKRON
Page's Sheet Music Store is preparing to open
in the new Orpheum Arcade, S. Main street and
Market, Akron, O. The store will specialize in
latest sheet music and musical merchandise.
JOHNSON HAS THE RHEUMATIZ
H. C. Johnson, Pacific Coast representative of
Leo Feist, Inc., who makes his headquarters in
San Francisco, Cal., is suffering from a severe at-
tack of rheumatism which necessitated his going
to Byron Springs for treatment.
TO PUBLISHES OR NO"
The Edward B. Marks Music Co. has accepted
for publication the song "Yes or No," written by
Louis Weslyn and Hal Dyson, in collaboration
with Kendis & Brockman. These writers have
also placed with Jack Mills, Inc., the song "Big
Honolulu Honey."
FRIEDLAND AGAIN TO PUBLISH
Anatol Friedland, the well-known composer
and former writing partner of L. Wolfe Gilbert,
has re-entered the publishing business and will
shortly release a number entitled "Who."
"SLEEPY HEAD" GAINS POPULARITY
"Sleepy Head," one of the newer numbers in
the catalog of Jack Mills, Inc., has in a short
space of time achieved a prominent position in
the program of the better-class vaudeville
singers. The number, while popular, is consid-
ered of a high standard for that type of song.
