OUR ADDRESS IS 59 Pearl Street New York Citv SONG SLIDE RELEASES Synopsis of Productions by the Leading Song Slide Manufacturers RELEASED THIS WEEK. Scott & Van Altena. 'SIMPLE DOTTY DIMPLE."— Words by Will J. Harris; music by Harry I. Robinson; published by Will Rossiter, Chicago. One of those child songs that are so dear to the hearts of women and children. The slides are composed of many cute poses by children, including schoolroom scenes, playful scenes and just plain romp and merriment. 'SWEET SUZANNE."— Words by Henry Troy; music by James Reese Europe; published by F. B. Havlland, New York. An excellent song with slides that would .make a hit anywhere. In the first place, the models are very good looking. Secondly, unlike many good looking models, they pose very gracefully and naturally, thus lending "personality" to the sei. Thirdly, the scenery is very beautiful, colored very strikingly by Scott & Van Altena's experts, who bring the beauties of nature before our eyes with such absolute precision. These three points should make this set very popular. 'THINK IT OVER, MARY."— Words by T. J. Grav; music by Al. Piantadosi; published by Leo Feisi. This song has a bright and catchy melody that will surely make a hit. The slides are in harmony with the music — full of beautifully colored, artistic and novel ideas. This set is a fine example of the thought and skill of Scott & Van Altena. De Witt O. Wheeler. •MAYBE YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO LOVES ME." — Words by Alfred Bryan; music by George Botsford; published by Jerome H. Remick & Co., New York. A song by these writers which is bound to become popular. Novel lyrics set to a swinging melody cannot fail to please and this song will please for that reason. There are two classes of song slides — those that illustrate and those that are merely ornamental. This set of slides really illustrates the humorous lyrics — tells in pictures the story of the song in an interesting and highly artistic fashion. 'WHEN JUNE ROLLS AROUND WITH THE ROSES." — Words by Will D. Cobb; music by Marie Theresa Laing; published by Shapiro, New York. Will Cobb has written so many hits that criticism of this song is superfluous. The melody, In march time, is full of spirit and well adapted to the swing of the lyrics. As for slides — well, here's the message they carry: A pretty country girl (a pretty one, mind you,) who's "pop" owns a nice fat farm, is enamored of a young man who says he's from New York. He wins her affection, and, who knows, but maybe some of "pop's" long green? At any rate he's called away on business, promising to be bacK with bells "when June rolls round with the roses." Has he returned? Well, now — he's from New York, which, when translated in this case, means NOT YET. A good set. Alfred L. Simpson. 'MY SWEET CORDELIA."— Words and music by Shepard N. Edmonds. This number is a pretty love song, such as the house of Haviland knows so well how to make popular. The slides are posed for by colored models and cleverly depict the lover and the sweetheart amid beautiful surroundings. Simpson knows where to find artistic scenery for his pictures, and he goes after it. A glance at this set will prove that fact. 'ARRAH, COME IN OUT OF THE RAIN. BARNEY McSHANE."— By the author of "Colleen Bawn," "Tipperary," "Bit o' Blarney," etc.; published by J. Fred. Helf. An Irish song, full of humor and true Irish wit. This is a good set of pictures. Simpson has outdone himself in depicting the jolly Irish widow and her Barney. The photography is excellent and the surroundings quite out of the ordinary. The coloring is in Simpson's fine style. 'WHO'S LOONY NOW?"— Lyrics by Edgar Selden; music by "Zit," of the Evening Journal. This is the big number that Eva Tanguay, Bobby North and other famous headliners are creating a big sensation with; a song right up to the minute, with a good catchy melody, and bound to create enthusiasm wherever sung. The slides are all novelties of exceptional merit, and will produce a laugh even from the worst pessimist. 'YOU CAN'T MAKE ME STOP LOVING YOU."— Words by Edgar Leslie; music by Kerry Mills. This is a song that already made good, and is now being sung throughout the country. The slides are first class, with some very original novelties. The models are both good looking.
