A wellknown New York composer,
who had long felt the need of a rep
utable firm of agents to undertake the
disposal of his compositions, read re-
Gently the advertisement of a bureau
which offered to place musical and
other manuscripts with publishers.

the advertisement stated expressly
that only work "of the highest grade"
was handled by the bureau. The
composer thinking that this was
probably the opportunity he had been
looking for, sought the address given
in the advertisement. Entering the
Offices of the concern. he found the
manager, in his shirt sleeves, sitting
at a typewriter.

compositions for a commission" in-
ouired the composer.
