Publishers' Representatives Find That Section a
Fertile Field for Their Efforts
"Say It With Music," the big success in Irv-
ing Berlin's "Music Box Revue," had much popu-
larity in Pacific Coast centers prior to the open-
ing of the show in New York. Several orches-
Song-pluggers in recent weeks have been quite
active in the Greenwich Village section of New
York. Indications are that it is fertile territory
to popularize songs. Recently, at the "Pepper
Pot," representatives
f r om s ome of the
leading publishing
houses entertained
the guests by sing-
ing the active num-
bers from their cata-
logs.

Particularly Interesting Collection of Modern
Russian Music Just Issued by the Oliver Dit-
son Co., of Boston—Edited by Ernest Newman
The ©liver Ditson Co., Boston, Mass., has just
issued two distinctly important additions to The
Musicians' Library. The two new volumes are
most substantial in size and represent excellent
selections of modern Russian songs, edited by
Ernest Newman, all the selections being alpha-
betically arranged according to composers. The
first volume offers an introduction that really
represents an analysis of Russian music and par-
ticularly of Russian songs. There are in addi-
tion interesting biographies of the various com-
posers in the selections. To the students of
modern music these two new Ditson volumes
should prove almost indispensable.
"Save All Your Love for Me" is the title of a
new song by Norman J. Vause which has been
accepted for publication by Jack Mills, Inc.

songs ever written.
