"Totem Tales" Proves
an Unusual Composition
New Number by Bernhardt L. Jewett, Based on
Indian Motives, Published by Hamilton S.
Gordon
"Totem Talc*,," published by Hamilton S.
(iordon, is an unusual suite based upon Indian
music. Released about a year ago it has
brought forth much favorable comment from
musical critics. The composer is Bernhardt L.
Jewett, who will be remembered as the com-
poser of the popular piano pieces "Carnival of
Roses" and "Valse Caprice" and more recently
a set entitled "Village Idylls."
"Totem Tales," as a series, includes "Birth of
the Sun," "Song of the Pine," "Medicine Dance"
and "Yelth's Love Song." All are descriptive
numbers, the last being a musical presentation
of the good spirit of the Red man who makes
love to the daughter of Gray Eagle, the keeper
of the sun, moon and stars. The song of love
captivates the Indian maiden who helps him to
obtain these beautiful things that the earth may
have light.
Artist Using Three Songs
by Same Pair of Writers
Dora Hilton, Soprano With Royal Scotch High-
landers' Band, Featuring Songs by Callahan
and Grey
Miss Dora Hilton, dramatic soprano with
Lloyd D. Smith's Royal Scotch Highlanders'
Band, now touring the Middle West, is scoring
success with three numbers, of which J. Will
Callahan and Frank H. Grey are the authors.
It is not often that one artist finds three num-
bers available from the same writers in a single
season. The songs in question are "Just Count
the Stars," published by Enoch & Sons; "Give
Me One Rose to Remember," a Witmark Black
and White ballad and "Give Me the Right to
Call You Dearest," published by Jack Mills, Inc.

SAN
FRANCISCO, CAL., September 1.—Sherman,
Clay & Co.'s popular catalog is most active just
now, as a good half dozen numbers are having
a wide sale due to the national popularity they
have achieved. Such songs as "Twilight," "The
Stars and You," "Bygones," and the new num-
ber "Close Your Eyes," are among the Sher-
man, Clay big sellers. This last number was
only recently released and overnight attained
a position of importance.
Sherman, Clay & Co., due to this increased
activity in its popular prints, has embarked on a
thorough advertising and publicity campaign
which will include every channel.
A Genuine Popular Hit
"Yes Sir! That's My Baby" has proved one
of the most popular numbers of the present
season. It is a lively dance air and assures
crowded dance floors. As a song it has also
proved successful in solo, duet and in quartet
form. The number is published by Irving Ber-
lin, Inc.

The display is one of the most unique that

demonstrates how easily and appropriately
various commercial lines can use popular song
titles to further their own merchandise.
This Block Bros, display attracted wide at-
tention and hundreds of passers-by became in-

Doubtless when the news gets around to other
umbrella merchants that this method of calling
attention to their merchandise has proven a
sales winner we shall hear of other requests.
