REVIEW
Music plays a prominent part in the lives of
the people in Savannah. There are many musi-
cal organizations, in fact, too many to mention.
Music is a feature in the public schools.
Murphy Music House
The Murphy Music House, located a few
steps away from the main thoroughfare, is a
pleasant little music shop. Mr. Murphy has
been in the industry since a youngster and knows
it from A to Z. He is just as cordial and
courteous to the 5 and 10 cent Lena, buying
"Oh Katharina," as he is to one of the exclu-
sive set looking for a concert grand piano. Mr.
Murphy is an old New Yorker, born and bred
a corker. His little palace of music contains
everything musical, pianos, musical instruments,
phonographs and records, as well as almost ev-
erything in sheet music. Mr. Murphy is a
splendid host to the weary traveler. Some-
times his orders may not be as large as the
salesman would like to have them, but his heart
is always in the right place.
Happiness may be a state of mind, but sur-
rounding and good fellowship are most helpful
in keeping the physical and mental forces tuned
up in perfect harmony. That is why I regretted
that my visit to Atlanta and Savannah was so
limited.
"Carolina Sweetheart" and
"Fooling" to Be Featured
A. J. Stasny Music Co. Begins Country-wide
Campaign on These Two Numbers
Two new numbers, "Carolina Sweetheart" and
"Fooling," recently added to the catalog of the
A. J. Stasny Music Co., Inc., are to receive
wide publicity in a campaign now under way
by that organization. This drive is to cover a
series of channels, each of which is of suffi-
cient importance to have a weighty influ-
ence in propaganda favoring these songs.
Among these activities will be the simultaneous
broadcasting by Joseph Knecht and his Silver-
town Orchestra of these numbers over four-
teen stations located over a widely diversified
territory, accompanied by the vocal rendition
of the same songs by Pat White.
Another important factor in the coming drive
on these Stasny successes is a tie-up with one
hundred Stanley theatres in the Eastern part
of the country, all of which will have
these numbers featured by their orchestras.
This portion of the campaign is under the di-
rection of Tom Huston, Philadelphia manager
of the Stasny Co., who has also arranged with
the Meyer Davis Orchestra units in Atlantic
Coast territory to feature "Carolina Sweet-
heart" and "Fooling." There are said to be
sixty-five Meyer Davis Orchestras in the terri-
tory mentioned.
In the mid-West Frank Peterson, the Omaha
representative of the Stasny Co., has arranged
for the appearance of Frank Hodek, the Bruns-
wick artist, at the Roseland Gardens in that
city, in a special feature known as "Carolina
Night," which will be supplemented by Caro-
lina Week, during which various music houses
of Omaha will feature the number in window
displays, etc. The dealers who will take part in
this activity are Patton Music Co., Hospe Mu-
sic Co., Schmoller & Mueller, McGrory Stores
and others.
E. J. Flaherty, general manager of the A. J.
Stasny Music Co., looks forward to both "Caro-
lina Sweetheart" and "Fooling" attaining sales
totals as large as anything heretofore published
by his organization. The company is getting
behind these numbers on a national scale
New Berlin Number
Irving Berlin, Inc. has just issued a new song
entitled "Sing-Loo." This is described as a
novelty Chinese number which has shown in-
dications of starting a reign of a new type
musical, composition. "At least its popularity
with vaudevillians tends to mark it thus.

New Willis Publications
Among the additions to the Willis Music Co.
catalog of Cincinnati, Ohio, are several impor-
tant books. The first of these is "Merz's First
Steps to the Young Violinist" by Otto C. A.
Merz. This is a beginner's book of studies and
pieces with big notes. There is a preface by the
author in which he says: "'First Steps of the
Young Violinist' is designed to meet the grow-
ing demand for material based on modern edu-
cational principles and suitable for use in teach-
ing young children." There are several other
constructive references. There is a line draw-
ing showing the nomenclature of violin and
bow. There are good-sized photographic il-
lustrations showing proper positions for holding
the instrument and directions for tuning, etc.
Also among the new Willis Music Co. issues
are "Love's Glorious Day," poem by Elsie Juil-
Icrat and music by G. Vargas, "The Foxy Kit-
ten," a recreation by Rudolf Friml, and "Lady
Slipper," an intermezzo by Evan Davies spoken
highly of.
