Where Music Rolls Are Made
The J. S. Unger Music House, Reading, Pa., gets
loads of testimonials from all points in the United
States about the popularity of its number, "Smiling
Silv'ry Moon." Below is one of these letters, written

"I received your number, 'Smiling Silv'ry Moon,'
through our vice president, Mr. Fetterman of Local
No. 463, A. F. M., and I certainly appreciate it. We
have been playing the number for about ten days and
it is a popular number with our dance crowds and
also the band. Les Stanton."
