MUSIC WILL HELP WIN THE WAR! A NATION'S SONGS

The Popular Songs of America at War By A Patn'ot

J\ NATION tha t n sings can never be beaten-each

song is a mile-stone on the road to victory.

Songs are to a na­tion's spirit what am­munitionis toanation's army. The producer of songs is an "ammu­nition" maker. The nation calls upon him for "ammunition" to fight off fatigue and worry. The response has been magnificent. America's war songs are spreading through the world-hailed by our allies as the omen im·.s>~ of victory.

~~ipJ1ilr 1,q> lr 11 0-nr there,__ o- nr thert.--

t When the boys march down the Avenue,

it's the martial crash of "Over There" that puts the victory swing in their stride. When the subscription squad "sets to" before a Liberty Bell, "It's a Long Way to Berlin, but We'll Get There" starts the signatures to the blanks. When the troop trains speed through, "Good-bye Broadway, Hello France" swells every heart with confidence.

Even into the jaws of death! American history has no finer page than that of the boys on the Tuscania, who went down sing­ing ..-Where Do ' Ve Go From Here."

,,. a l1 J1 J1 J J I r· r .. "Where do we go Crom ~ere, boys,

But aside from their effect as stimulants of the national spirit, these war songs, simply as developments, are interesting.

Whence did they come? What brought them? How did they happen?

T he list is already a familiar one. Head­ing it is "Over There." Pressing close for popularity are "Where Do We Go From H ere," "It's a Long ' Vay to Berlin, But We'll Get There,'' "Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here," "Good-bye Broadway, Hello France." And now they're singing a lot of newer ones like "'Ve're All Going Calling On The Kaiser,'' "If He Can Fight Like He Can Love, Why Then It's Good Night Germany" and "Just Like 'Vashington Crossed the Delaware, Genr'l Pershing Will Cross the Rhine."

When we examine into the source and nature of these songs, we find that prac­tically every one issues from a single pub­lishing bouse,- the house of Leo Feist, Inc.

P ractically every one gives voice to a tre­mendous eagerness for "Getting over and at 'em." And the music has a certain buoyant urge that stirs the very corpuscles of the blood.

Truly remarkable that one man shou!J give the nation practically all its war songs.

I J I ~ J :_J_) 1 Broad • wu, Hel • lo Franco, -

But this is only the external fact. Music is not to be judged as other things made, bought, and sold. It comes not from with­out, but from within. It is the language of innermost feeling. That a hundred million sing Leo Feist's war-songs means that he has succeeded in truly reaching a hundred million hearts.

That Mr. Feist himself neither wrote words nor music of any of these songs is away from the point. It was he who made

them possible. I t was h e who conceived "Where Do We Go From Here?" It was he who made "It's a Long Way to Berlin, but We'll Get There" into a great recruiting song. It was he who brought "Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here" to the status of a full­fiecged camp song. It washewhodui;''Katy'' out of an army camp, and gave it to the people. It was he who paid George M. Cohan $25,000 fo r "Over T here."

It was he who made a part of America 's tradition "Homeward Bound," "'Ve'll Knock the Heligo Out of Heligoland,'' "Bring Dack My Daddy to Me,'' "I'll Come Back to You \ Vhen It's All Over," "'Round Iler Neck She Wears a Yeller Ribbon," "Give Me a Kiss by the Numbers," "Each S~itch is a Thought of You, Dear," "Good l\Iorning, :i\fr. Zip, Zip, Zip" "I Don't \Vant to Get 'Veil " "We B~;t Them At the l\farne,'' "Ke~p Your H ead Down, Fritzie Boy," "I'd like to See the Kaiser With a Lily In His Hand,' ' "When I'm Through With Arms of the Army," "When We Wind Up the Watch Cn the Rhine," "Don't Bite the Hand That's Feeding You."

Mr. Feist is also responsible for one of the greatest innovations in music since the war began. It was he who conceived the idea of a pocket-sized son~book for the use of Soldiers, Sailors and the folks back home.

This eighty-page gloom dispeller contains all the old favorites with words and music of the newest copyrighted songs. He gave the book its appropriate title, "Songs the Soldiers and Sailors Sing,'' and marketed it at a price within reach of all, ! Sc.

One of Mr. Feist's most valued treasures is a letter framed in his office from a soldier in the trenches telling how he and his pals appreciated and enjoyed this book.

Zwingli said, "Nothing makes a man more of a man than music." Leo Feist is not only building national-spirit-he is building man-power. He is a genius that serves subtly- but none the less power­fully.

Like all men with a purpose, Leo Feist has a whole-hearted slogan-" You Can't Go Wrong With a Feist Song." With it he has confidently kd the campaign for singing cheerfulness-with a success that is evidenced in every city, town and hamlet of the United States, for the great Feist songs are heard everywhere. Today they are our inspiration-tomorrow our memories.

***Songs are to a Nation's spirit what ammunition is to a Nation's army.***

***The producer of songs is an "ammu­nition" maker. The Nation calls upon him for "ammunition" to fight off fatigue and worry.***

Major-General Wood said: "It is just as essential that the soldiers know how to sing as it is that they carry riflea and know how to shoot them. There isn't anything in the world, even letters from home, that will raise a soldier's spirits like a good, catchy march­ing tune."
