PORTLAND, ORE., January 5.—The Sherman-Clay
number, "Cover Me With Kisses," is having a
big sale at the local Sherman-Clay house and
it is anticipating a heavier demand for this pop-
ular fox-trot. The local dealers were highly
delighted to receive the beautiful and tuneful
arpeggio waltz, "The Bird's Frolic," published
by the same company. "The Bird's Frolic" is
the production of Mario Fortana, the well-
known composer of teaching pieces.
Arthur Lange, one of the best-known musical
arrangers in the country, who for many years

was quite a departure. This again demonstrates
the hold of present-day orchestras.
The Strand playhouse found the appearance

Robert Crawford,, sales manager of Irving
Berlin, Inc., is visiting the branch offices of his
company in Middle West territory. In addi-

larger centers, including Detroit and Chicago.
Mr. Crawford, while away, will feature the out-
standing song successes from the "Topsy and
Eva" show, including "Reincmb'ring" and "I
Never Had a Mammv."
"Sittin' in a Corner" Sales
"Sittin' in a Co.ncr," from the catalog of
living Berlin, Inc., is having as large a sale as
"That Old Gang of Mine," from the same cata-
log. This is substantial proof of the popularity
of this issue, inasmuch as that "Old Gang of
Mine" has been one of the leading sales factors
on the music counters of the country.

"He Calls Me Honey

A little love number that's creating
a great sensation with college and high
school students.
