l1\usic publisher and publishers' representative,
1562 Milwaukee avenue, this city, who has been
in thi s busin(>ss for a number of years, has

"WONDERFUL ONE" AS A SONG
Originally a Dance Number, It Has Proved
Itself a Big Success Vocally
The Leo Feist, Inc., song, "Wonderful One,"
or ig inall y introduced and exploited as an ex­
ceptiol1al waltz, is now heard frequently in vau­
deville in song form. It undoubtedly will re­
peat its earlier success as an instrumental with
the publicity it is getting through vocal rendi·
tions. As a matter of fact, it is one of the best
vocal numbers issued in some time, and, from
a popular standpoint, will take its place in
programs alongside of such songs as "Roses of
Pi cardy" and "A Kiss in the Dark."

NEW CONFREY PIANO SUITE
The Forster- Music Co:, of New York and
Boston, :Ma s s., recently iss ued a new su ite for
the piano by Z ez Confrey, under the titl e "Three
Little Oddities." The publication is in book
form, attractively bound, and th e forepart car­
ries a halftone reproduction of th e composer
and an introduction or foreword ev ident ly writ­
ten by an admi'-er of this unique and successful
composer who uildoubtedly ha s done much to
open up the piano keybo ards in the home!' of
the country. This introduction is \.vor th rc­
peating:
"To those who know th e delightful pranks
of a certain young feline fri sking over the
ivo rie s, :\h. Zez Cunfrcy nccds no introduction.
The Kitten on the Keys' is a musical classic,
not onl y in the estimation of all cheerful folks
fond of a m e rr y tun e, but also according to the
di ctum of not a few sober a nd serio us pundits.
" Will th e composn, presenting him se lf in a
graver mood, be acclaimed with the same unan ­
imit y? The publishers hope that these 'Three
Little Od diti es for th e Pianoforte' . will, if pos­
sible, make 1110rc f;'ie~d s for Mr. Co nfr e'y, whose
talents are here s hown in a new and intere s tin g
li g ht. Not s o new, however, that now and
then ther e may not be felt the remembered
touch of a furry little paw. A nd that, perhaps,
is no fa ult. "
A conspicuous display of "Thre e Little Oddi­
ties" in the retail st ores sho uld create many
sales for this ne w publication.
