ACTIVITIES OF DITSON CO.
C. H. Ditson Returning From Vacation—Con-
ference Regarding New Issues to Be Held
Shortly—Several New Numbers of Merit
BOSTON, MASS., October 6.—Charles H. Ditson,
head of the Oliver Ditson Co., who spends his
Summers at Jackson, N. H., is expected to stop
over in Boston in a few days on his way back
to New York City, where he has his Winter
home.
Charles Fontayne Manney, the composer, who
is one of the editors of the Oliver Ditson Co.,
is in Europe whither he went a fortnight ago.
He is expected home in the late Fall or early
Winter.
Within the next few weeks James A. Smith,
who is in charge of the retail department of the
Oliver Ditson Co., will call his staff together
to hold the first of the season's conferences on
the new issue of music, the same as was done
on several occasions last year and which were
productive of such good results in so far as
developing an intelligent knowledge of what
the clerks handle day after day.
Some of the late issues of music by the Ditson
Co. are these: Song, "To Live and Love Again,"
words by Carl Clemson, music by Hartley
Moore; three songs by Charles Huerter, "Honey
Chile," "Old Lavender" and "Summer Seas";
"Sir Galahad Commandery March," by T. H.
Rollinson, and "Indian Lament," by Homer
Grunn.

"IN MAYTIME" POPULAR
Jack Snyder Waltz Used for Prize Dancing
Contest in English Dancing School
Jack Snyder, Inc., publisher of "In Maytime"
(1 Learned to Love) and the new success,
"November Rose," the latter number being
hailed as another "April Showers," was the re-
cipient recently of a letter from the Caesbrooke
Dancing School, Caesbrooke Road, Liverpool,
England, in which it was stated that at the
annual dance of that school, for which a £200
prize is given, "In Maytime" was played
throughout the evening for all the contestants.
The arrangement is two-step in various move-
ments, known as "Prof. Anderson's Waltz," and
is now the vogue in London, according to re-
ports from many sources.
