Wbcn tho boys wrote "On tho Shore of Italy" they thought It would be Impossible to vrrlte a successor, but they got together and, after a little work, turned out tho new Italian song, which will bo a revelation. Tho title of tho song Is "My Own Venetian Rose," and from the reports of a few of our standard acts, tbe eong will be a bigger bit than "On the Shores of Italy." Thla song Is poiiltlvely a gem from a melody stond- point, and as for tho lyrics—Joe McCarthy wrote It, which Is enough to know that none better could be written. It's a song which deserves to be In everybody's ropertolre. High class singers (male or female) should write In for It, and for the charoctcr singers wc have a natter chorus which Is better tnan anything that has been dono before. The melody was written by Jack Glogau and Al. rinntadnsl. Leo Feist Is tho'publisher. This number will be positively one of the biggest hit J In tbe season of 10l!i, so get It now and be one of the first (o sing thin gem. "WHY NOT SIXO Wi;\niX' OF THE <iRKn\."

Tn be aiire that there was a corking Irish song on the market. Jack Ologau and Howard Johnson got togetbcr and turned out a corking Irish Bong entitled "Why Not Sing Wearln' of tho Orecn." A simple melody and a corking lyric. A <!ong with sentiment and a number lhat can't fall. Great for harmony, quar- tettes, trios , and duos. Harmony arrange- nients by Al. Doyle. Nuf said. Don't fall to write In for It, ns S^. Patrick's Day Is only two weeks off, and this song Is positively tho best Irish song on the m.trket. Leo Pelst In the publisher. ' The song Is hning featured with tremendous success ny nianche Ring, .ind goes bigger than "Iledella." which was lier biggest nit. A word to the wise Is nuf- nclont.
