Hello Business!
That's what every dealer can truth-
fully say when he takes on the Cen-
tury Line. If you have had any ex-
perience in selling Nationally Adver-
tised lines, then there is no need of
our telling how Century's National
Ads help boost your sales in general.
It's the only Nationally Advertised
line of sheet music in America.
You ought to carry it.

Among the past successes written by James
F. Hanley are a number of songs for other
musical shows including "Robinson Crusoe, Jr.,"
a former Winter Garden success, and "Who Do
You Love," which was sung with great popu-
larity by Nora Bayes in one of the George M.
Cohan revues. He wrote the lyrics for the
John Cort production, "Jim Jam Jems." In the
popular song field he has to his credit such
songs as "Back Home in Indiana," "Three Won-
derful Letters From Home," "My Dixie Ros-
ary," "Breeze" and "Rose of Washington
Square."
James F. Hanley, despite the above experi-
ence, is one of our youngest song writers. He
is noted for his broad smile and his magnetic
personality. He was only recently married, so
it could be taken for granted that the songs
from "Honeymoon Lane," including the "Little
White House," are based upon recent inspira-
tions. At any rate, the promotion sounds
like it.

Henry Waterson, Inc., has one of the best
catalogs this year ever gathered together for a
Fall season. Included in these offerings are such
numbers as "Mary Lou," "Petrushka," "To-
night You Belong to Me," "Do You Believe in
Dreams," "That Night in Araby" and "She's
Still My Baby." All of the branch offices and
the representatives throughout the country of
the firm are taking part in an intensive publicity
and sales drive on these issues. In conjunction
with these activities, special attention is being
given to vaudeville singers and to singing dance
orchestras. The result has been that more than
a few results have been achieved in the vocal
end of the exploitation on several numbers that
might otherwise be predominantly of dance
character.
