Mark Silver Jubilee
The publishers of "Footloose" report that this
snappy fox-trot, written in conjunction with the
NEA serial story of the same title, is soon to
be released on all important makes of talking
machine records and player-piano rolls.
The Victor Paul Whiteman record has been
selling big. Brunswick has just issued it, played
by Carl Fenton's Orchestra, a favorite with New
York society. Some of the other makes now on
the market include Vocalion, Pathe, Cameo and
QRS.
In celebration of its silver anniversary the
Century Music Publishing Co. has not only in-
creased its advertising appropriation so as to
include twenty-five nationally known publica-
tions of wide circulation, but it has also ar-
ranged the "Century's Twenty-fifth Anniversary
Window Display Contest."
The prizes this year include the choice of
fourteen articles, including a Hamilton 14-kt.
solid gold seventeen-jewel watch or a Howard
or Elgin watch, the latter set with diamonds
and sapphires. There is also a choice of a
selection of sterling silver for the first prize
winner.
The second prizes also include the well-known
make of men's and women's watches or a selec-
tion of sterling silver and the third prizes arc
Elgin and Waltham watches or a selection of
sterling silver.
The contest is open to all dealers in the United
States and Canada and there are no special rules
or qualifications other than a display of Cen-
tury material. Upon request any dealer decid-
ing to enter the contest will be furnished with
title pages, window signs and other attractive
matter gratis.
The contest opens at once and closes Decem-
ber 31, 1925. The judges of the contest are
F. C. Bruns, of the Federal Advertising Agency,
V. D. Walsh, B. W. McClellan and A. F. Boyl-
ston.

Shapiro-Bernstein Numbers
Among the new songs published by Shapiro,
Bernstein & Co. is "Breezin' Along Through
Georgia." The number is by the writers of "Al-
abamy Bound" and the early indications since
its release seem to mark it as the successor of
the former offering. Benny Davis and Harry
1925
Warren have contributed "Want a Little Lovin'."
There is also a new ballad entitled "I Wonder If
We'll Ever Meet Again (Dear Old Gal of
Mine)," and a dance song recently introduced in
Earl Carroll's "Vanities" called "Somebody's
Crazy About You."

SEPTEMBER 26,
What can truly be termed a "record" sale
recently occurred at Grinnell Bros.' Saginaw,
Mich., store. Carl Rupp, writer of the popular
hit, "Footloose," paid a visit to his home town
the other day and was induced by the manager
of Grinnell's music department to treat the home
folks with a personal appearance in their de-
partment and autograph records and sheet music
copies of his famous song hit.
He reports that in one hour he autographed
sixty Victor records—a speed of one a minute—
and the stock of both records and sheet music
was exhausted in quick time.

issued by Henry Waterson, Inc. It contains
thirty numbers, all with ukulele arrangements,

and waltz forms. Such numbers as "In Shadow-
land," "My Sugar," "Blue Eyed Sally," "Because
They All Love You" and "Some Day" (We'll
Meet Again) appear in this first issue.
The title page of the "Cameo Dance Folio
No. 1" is attractive and carries miniature title
pages of the six songs mentioned above. The
twenty-four other numbers that are included in
the offering are about the same standard of
popularity.
