Edison Issues
*tBits of Broadway
Up to the Minute Dances and
Songs Now Ready on Phon-
o8raphS Re-CreatiOnS

Seven fox trots, "a waltz, and two
songs comprise the latest contribu-
tion of the Edison Company to the
phonograph world. They are hot off
the griddle so to speak. from Broad
day to the smallest town of the coun-
try. Some of them are the best dance
numbers produced in months.
Foremost among the fox trots, per-
haps, are ''Humming," played by Or
lando's Orchestra and "Palesteena,
given by the Green Bros Novelty
Band. Keeping pace with these are
bright Eyes," also performed by
Orlando's organization, and Broad
way Rose" rendered by Harry RAIDER
mans Jazz Orchestra. Raderman pre-
sents "Home Again Blues" too, and
the Green Bros. show their genius for
dance music in "Sleepy Hollow" q
waltz of the dreamy sort.
The many fans for Max Fells' Della
Robbia Orchestra will be glad to know
that it has Reiterated ''Rosie," a fox
trot which withstands repet tion.
"Caresses, another fox trot. is linked
with ''Rosie" on the same Re-Crea-
ton, and is performed by Lenzberg's
Riverside Orchestra.
Blues" songs are multiplied over
night, it would seem, but 'I've Got
the Blues For My Kentucky Home"
% sung by the Premier Quartet, is the
kind that only comes once in a ''blue
MOON" Rounding out these "Bits of
Broadway" is song sung by the en-
tertaining AL Bernard, entitled Tim
buctoo," and it is funny enough to
make . stone image crack smile.

It should be both the architect
and the builder Of 2 great and
better community and it should
have both the moral and financial
strength of the people to enable 1t
