The all too brlof reign of the eirdome and the sea- side the&tre has begun. Hhere will be no le^up to our campaign. We liave boUi tho men and the ammniiiition enough lo lost u9 through the hot months and plenty left over for early Fall. In the meantime onr arsenola TrtU be kpt going oa full lime so that Che novelties and hits may be fortheooilng whenever they may be needed. All this past Spring the ships have been building, and iK>w we have a fleet of song hits that will take aood care of 'the WItmark tDterests through the og deys. Our dKeadnauzht squadron is poitlcu- larly strong. Ihe latest launched "I Love Them All,'' Is br>;aklng all records while the target prac- tice of "Sorlnkle Me With Kisses," has resulted tn more hits than ever Its enthusiastic builders expected. That powerful cruiser. "Sweet Kentucky I<ady," has sailed Into every baroor of music In the United States, and truly her -welcome at each has been phenomenal. Her cruise will last Indefinitely, for the calls for her appearance are increasing dally. Pursuing the simile (please don't print that "smile," Jock};^ the WItmark torpedo flotilla has tot every one'on'the Qui vlve. The damage they ave done among the Glooms has been stupendous They have sunk Depression -withont warning, and there hasn't been a kick coming from anybody; they have torpedoed the Blues, chased the Crouch from off the fac3 of the earth (or aea), and have suffered nary a casualty in achieving these bril- liant feats. . ^ The names of the most conspicuous of these craft Include such distinctive and well known units as "A Little Bit of Heaven." "In the Garden of the Gods," "Runaway June." "Dearie Girl," and otbers In the same class. They are here, there and. everyn'brre. You can't get rid of them. The people want them and ■ft-lll have 'em. Observe, I call these Wdoders our torpedo flotilla. We have no submarines. Kone of our numbers needs to hide Itself. They work In the open. They are welcomed, not shunned. . Earl Carroll, 'who was the hero of Pittsburgh a week ago, returned to our bourne unspoiled and full of honors. Alas, 'he came back only to pack up again. Tils time he's off .for the Paclfle" Coast, 'Where, In Los Angeles, he -will coHaborate In the making of the next musical show that Oliver Mo- rosco puts on In the cafeteria town.
