20 VARIETY Tkt Ckas. K. Harris Courier Hagerstown, Md., Mar. 7, '00. Mr. Meyer Cobeo, Mgr. Chas. K. Harris, New York City. Dear Friend: Having read continually of the success other people were baring with Mr. Harris' new song, "NOBODY KNOWS, NOBODY CARES." I decided that I was going to share some of its sue esse too, snd so I drop yon these few Hues to let you know tbst I sang it for the first time down here, Hagerstown, Md., and while I hare read of the sit other singers hare made of this song I never dreamed I would receive each an ovation and thunderous applause that greeted the song at Its conclusion—why, it Just carried everything before It, and I was called oat time and again to repeat the chorus. It is the biggest bit I bsvo ever had with any ballad I have ever song, sod ss s matter of fact I have never seen a ballad of its kind make such an instantaneous bit. I bad my audience captured the moment I began to sing it, and they certainly did snow their appreciation by the applause, which was long and enthusiastic to the last minute. The second time I saog It there was some of them who remained In from the other show and gava the title slide when it waa thrown on the curtain a hearty reception. Bo yon can sea by this that not only in New York and surrounding towns to It a hit, but it is the same with ma down here. Yon can publish my sentiments if yon wish in retards to "NOBODY KNOWS, NOBODY CARE*." Give my regards to Fred and Loo. Yours very sincerely, M. F.

We, the undersigned members of the Theat- rical profession, who were obliged to be In Washington during Inauguration Week and who were fortunate enough to get accommoda- tions at THE ARDMORE, wish to publicly express our appreciation of the manner in which the Proprietor, MR. F. C. JACKSON, looked after our welfare. While all other hotels and rooming bouses were cbsrging exorbitant rates, THE ARDMORE, so fsr as we could learn, was the great one exception, who did not demand an advance of their usual Theatrical rate. We are all members of the COHAN 4 HARRIS' MINSTRELS, "Merry Widow," De Wolfe Hopper, and Geo. Sidney Companies, and wishing to use the best method of show- ing our sppreclstlon, we all unite In asking VARIETY to publish this, ss sn assurance to the theatrical profession In general that at no time will they be discriminated against, and that they will alwaya be welcomed by the genial and accommodsting host of THE ARD- MORE.

SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1808. " You're Just the Kind of Girl I Want My Girl to Be" Words by WILL D. COBB. Music by E. BAY GOETZ. He met her one day the usual way, A mutusl friend waa on band; A "bow do you do?" and "pleased to meet yon." And Cupid sdds two to bis bond. Now, the looks of this lassie struck him as so classy He mentally marked her O. K., And growing heroic became Romeoic, Enough to spesk right out snd ssy: CHORUS. You're just the kind of girl I went my girl to be. You're just the prise my hungry eyes bsve starved to sea. Awake! Asleep! I just can't keep this thought from me— You're just the kind of girl I want my girl to be. She listened tbst dsy, while he said his ssy; She listened snd longed to believe; But she'd learned from shows, what "each woman knows," Tbst man has been known to deceive. So the did some "8berlocking," results were quite shocking— She found bim, ob! sad to relate, Outside Vsssar College imparting this knowl- edge To esch girl that came out the gate.
