30 THE FILM INDEX The Slides the audience look and wait for are made by De Witt C. Wheeler, he 120 West 31st St. New York City The Slides that Bring Applause Scott & Van Altena's 59 Pearl Street, New York City SONG SLIDE RELEASES Synopsis of Productions by the Leading Song Slide Manufacturers RELEASED THIS WEEK. Scott & Van Altena. "I LOVE THE GIRL MY FATHER LOVED" (And Mother is Her Name).— Published by Great Eastern Music Pub. Co. Beautiful lyrics and music for this song. A youth has wandered all over the world looking for a sweetheart and finds her only after returning home, and she is "mother." Surely, he must be case-hardened indeed who has no loving thought of mother. Of great variety and full quality are the slides for this song, illustrating the story in a beautiful way. "SUSIE ANNA SUE." — Lyrics by Olive L. Frields; music by Harry L. Newman; published by Sunlight Music Co., Chicago, 111. A very pretty little ballad by the writers of "Tennessee." The set is remarkable for the pretty and effective scenes. Some entirely new novelties are introduced which are both striking and beautiful. The models are exceptionally fine-looking, the girl being a little winner, which, by the way, is true, as she won a beauty prize in a newspaper contest. 'WHEN YOU SEE THE SNOWFLAKES FALLING."— Lyrics by Joe Young; melody by Bert Grant; published by the Gotham-Attucks Music Co., New York. A pleasing little ballad treating of a young couple planning their wedding day, which is to be when the snowflakes are falling. The first part shows them in beautiful summer scenes and the latter part amid snowy surroundings, together with unique novel effects, which make the set very attractive. De Witt C. Wheeler. 'MY, WHAT A FUNNY LITTLE WORLD THIS IS."— Words and music by Lewis and Bennett; published by Jos W. Stern & Co., New York. A clever song of the day, being successfully featured by Le Maire and Fisher in vaudeville. As for slides, they compose one of Wheeler's comedy sets. Humorous ideas carried out in an effective way make the set popular and well applauded. 'IN WINTER." — Lyrics and music by Joe Markley; published by Shapiro, New York. A waltz song with a fascinating swing and cheerful lyrics. The illustrations are composed of part novelties of the highest order, and part descriptive scenes of Mother Earth clad in her snowy winter garments. The latter are especially picturesque and appealing. The novelties, too, are particularly "classy." Alfred L. Simpson. 'JINGLE BELLS."— The one song hit of the year by the authors of "Play That Barber Shop Chord" and "Gee, But It's Great to Meet a Friend From Your Home Town.' J. Fred Helf, the popular song publisher, who certainly has released some hits, says this is going to be the most sensational whirlwind song hit he ever put out. Simpson has made positively the greatest set of snow scenes and winter pictures ever put out by him. There is also an airship effect which will get a round of applause. 'THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER" and "COLUMBIA, THE GEM OF THE OCEAN" are now ready for the coming patriotic holidays. These pictures are made from actual photographs of battleships, war scenes, etc., as Simpson knows how to do. The coloring and effects are very true to nature. Iievi Company, Inc. 'PLAYLAND." — Words by Bernard Grossman; music by Jack D. Richmond; published by Seymour Furth Music Publishing Co., New York. A clever song that New York has gone wild over. It tells about a simple old couple and their dreams of childhood days. The slides tell the story and the scenes depicted are beautiful, making it a very desirable set to use. •UNDER THE HONEYMOON IN JUNE TIME." — Words by Raymond A. Browne; music by Wm. H. Penn; published by Music House of Laemmle. The slides comprising this set are without doubt the best ever turned out by the Levi Co. The moonlight effects are simply wonderful and the novelties are great. If you want to use a good song, beautifully illustrated, get this number. Excelsior Slide Co. "TRADING HEARTS."— Words by Charles E. Baer; music by Charles E. Baer; published by M. D. Swisher, New York. The colorings and photography of this set are beautiful. The song is one that will be popular before many days are over. The effects in the set of slides are many, and will help popularize the song greatly. 'CINDY, COME BE MY BRIDE."— Words by Henry Fink of Bixley & Fink; music by Henry Fink of Bixley & Fink; published by Head Music Publishing Co., New York. A good set of slides that follow the words of this new number of the Head Music Publishing Co., which the Head people are plugging now. The characters in the set of slides carry out every detail in the song cleverly, and from the looks of the slides they are sure to take the audience. RECENT RELEASES. Scott & Van Altena.
