The Ditson Co. has been noted for its well-
arranged windows, but none of its attractive
displays in recent months created more atten-
tion than its Music Week showing.
Primarily, the window was not arranged for
the purpose of creating sales. It was deemed a
contribution to the Music Week celebration.
However, its value proved so alluring to stu-
dents and historically inclined New Englanders
that many came in for a chat and to ask ques-

WONDERFUL MELODY
CHICAGO, III., May 31.—Isham Jones and His
Orchestra, popular Brunswick artists, are mak-
ing a vaudeville tour of the mid-West which
will take them to the Coast, visiting the prin-
ciple cities throughout this section, including
Kansas City, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Denver,
San Francisco, Los Angeles, Oakland and other
points.
Among the popular numbers that Isham
Jones will feature will be the late hits published
by the Milton Weil Music Co., of which Isham
Jones is secretary. These numbers include
"Spain," "Never Again," "Unfortunate Blues,"
'"The One I Love," "Blue Evening Blues," "My
Sweetheart" and others.
Flammer Number Recorded
"Love Has a Way," the theme-melody for
Mary Pickford's new photo-play, "Dorothy Ver-
non of Haddon Hall," has recently been re-
corded by the Victor, Pathe, Perfect and Okeh
record companies. The biggest drive on this
song will begin in the Fall, when the picture
opens at the continuous houses. The sixth edi-
tion of the song has just been printed by
Harold Flammer, Inc., the New York publisher.
