RED HOT MUSIC
FOR HOTTEST WEATHER
This has been a red-hot summer in nearly every
state in the Union, but the Clark Orchestra Roll Co.,
of DeKalb, 111., has furnished red-hot music for the
record heat of June and July. And the company says:
"The hotter the music, the more cold cash your
electric piano will take in. Jovial customers are the
best spenders. Keep them happy and tickle their
tuneful toes with lively, snappy music of Clark or-
chestra rolls. One new roll each week will increase
your 'take' of cold cash.
"Hot evenings—lazy moon—guitar music over the
water—hoot of distant owl—seem to make people's
thoughts turn to dancing, and when tingling toes turn
to trotting, nothing's better for the electric piano.
"The hotter the weather, strange to say, the better
people like to dance. And why not humor them a bit
by providing . a convenient piano, especially when
catering to their comfort yields bigger and better
coin 'takes'? Away from the cares of business, re-
sorters turn to music as rest for their ragged nerves.
Dreamy waltzes, zippy fox-trots, wild one-steps—
everybody dances when the lively roll starts playing.
And before the first piece has stopped a shower of
nickels has been dropped into the coin slot and the
faithful electric player is off for a big day's—and
night's—work.
"As new crowds of vacationers arrive at the sum-
mer resorts, their first move is to visit the dance hall
to see what snappy tunes are in store for them.
Happy smiles and generous patronage awaits the
electric piano owner who has thought wisely to place
brand new Clark orchestra rolls near at hand. He
knows from experience that only the latest music will
bring home the bacon and he knows, too, that there's
nothing* better for a flat purse than a well-stocked
library of Clark orchestra rolls for his piano, and
these rolls are to be had at first-class music sellers."
Here are ten sizzling tunes, "all hot" blues, by the
Clark Orchestra Roll Co.: Vine Street Drag, Ninety
in the Shade, Rockin' Chair, Bule Face Blues, Stuff,
Boogie Woogie, Just a Shade Corn, Ridin' But
Walkin', The One-Man Band, Bouncin' Round.
DEATH OF WALTER F. WALKER.
The American Piano Plate Co., of Racine, Wis.,
announces with profound sorrow the death of its
president,. Mr. Walter F. Walker, which occurred on
Wednesday, July 22, last.
JEROME H. REMICK
Jerome H. Remick, who died on Wednesday morn-
ing, July IS, in his home, 245 Ridge road, Grosse
Pointe Farms, Mich., was 62 years of age. A scion
of one of the wealthiest lumbering families of early
Michigan, Mr. Remick began his career in the music
publishing business in 1898 by buying a half-interest
in the Whitney-Warner Publishing Co., of Detroit.
Under his management it became a very large music
publishing house; he was sole owner by 1900. The
firm was consolidated with Shapiro's in New York
and incorporated on January 1, 1904, as Shapiro,
Remick & Co., with Maurice Shapiro as president
and Mr. Remick, secretary-treasurer and general man-
ager. Eleven months later the business was reor-
ganized as Jerome H. Remick & Co., with Mr.
Remick as president and general manager. Three
years later he organized the J. H. Remick Printing
Co. which, as a subsidiary firm, printed a portion of
the sheet music published by the parent company.
Mr. Remick at the time of his death was president
and general manager of the Detroit Creamery Co., a
stockholder in the Detroit Free Press, vice-president
of the Detroit Symphony Society, a director in the
Graham-Paige Motors Corporation, in Parke, Davis
& Co., drug manufacturers, in several banks and be-
longed to a long list of clubs and Masonic organiza-
tions. He is survived by his widow, one .daughter
and two sons.
