Winter Time
Ah winter time!
And the ^rountl is hard and cold—
I'roni the ice and snow
That has long hint iipc.n the hrecist
the earth.
I'he running brooklets along the meadow,
do no more sing their rippling
song-^ of nature-
Nor do they chant their noctural lulla-
tr.es in the stillness of the night.
Ah. winter time!
And the night is long and cold.
I'he strong whids blowing through the
tall tree tops
And blowing heavy against the window
panes.
The low murmuring sound of the blaz
ing fire
Makes one huddle closely
goes whirling bv.
Dying Embers
One last spark of lore's flame is all that
remains in this heart of mine.
One little struggling hope of a love once
so pure and fine
Yague memories of those moments
spent with you
Hours of love and laughter 'neath a sky
of blue
Now here in the gloom of my lonely
room; just me
I see you again as you used to be.
The coals on love's fire burns lower and
lower
The music of my heart strings plays
slower and slower
Dying embers of what used to be
One thought less my dear from you for
me.
Thus ends the bond of friendship kind
and true
Once niY darling I knew because of you.
Cti.^Ki.orri'. R.wdot.pii, ’46,
dv the wind
Ah, winter tune!
And the night is calm and still,
I'he night is still and cold.
The moon gleams doM'u
Upon the heavy new snow.
While stars twinkle in the sky above—
Glisten softly down on the snow below.
W inter time, oh beautiful
\\ inter time!

The recent hit “Rum and Coca-
Cola” topped the last year craze,
"Mairzy Doats” i'n the comparison
of sales of sheet music copies, “Rum
and Coca-Cola'’ initial order was
300,000, “Mairzy Boats'’ began with
only 100,000. It has been barred by
four major radio networks and oddly
enough objections to the tune li'init
themselves to use of the word “rum'’
(for moral reasons) and the word
!“Coca-Cola” (because it's a free
plug). A Negro is given credit for the
song.
'I’he ma.jiii- record tirms have begun
once more to sacrifice hot jazz and
even swing, in favor nf here-tnday-
aiid goiie-tiimorrow dance and vocal
disces. 'I’he records reviewed here
proves this.
Benny (’.nndnian "Fiesta In Tilue"
backed by “I Can't (!i\e Yim Any-
tliing r>ut Love Baby". 'I’his is an old
platter, and a good one, but it has
never been issued before. Fiesta fea
tures the superb horn of Cottie Wil
liams. On the reverse the old Cood-
iiiaii sextet is at the sninmit.
Lena Horne's disc of "I Didn't
Know About Y'ou" preceded the
Duke's disr of his song. But the
J)uke's perfiirinanre easily ratrhes up
and passes the gorseous Horne's. Joy
Sherrill sings the lyrirs. On the re
verse is .\l Hibbler who nearly
brings tears to your e.yes with his tali*
of woe suns in the forni of "I Ain't
(iot Nothing l!ut tlu* Blues". '»'on'lI
like it if you like Blues.
(’harlie B.arnet is out witii an ar-
ransement of "^'ou Always Hurt tlie
One ^llu J.iive" barked by "Into Karh
life Sonu* Ifain Must l’all". Jli*
doesn't do anything for the ballads
that the “Spots" hadn't done already.
A rather different record has been
rerorded recently by J'’rankie Carle—
I Had a Little 'I’alk With the Lord".
It isn't a hymn jazzed as the title
might lead you to believe. It is a lial-
lad tellins of a prayer of a soldier
in a foxhole. 'I’he slow tempo of the
iiiitsic is a ver,v beautiful bai.'kground.
.Jordan's \'ersion of Mop Mop ranks
with the best as Louis sins and liis
'I’ympani Five back liiiii up. On the
back is “You Can't (Jet 'I’hat No
.More" a very timely time and sttng
very wittily by that .Iordan JIan.
The Milt Page trio has out a new
version of "I’aper Moon". Sounds
solid, too. It's a faster tempo than
the Kins Cole arrangement.
l.es Brown seems to be baskins iti
the spotlisht more than ev(*r these
days. His rerordins of "Sentimental
•Journey" witli .Miss Day singing is a
tine example of what his orchestra
rail do. .\nother rerording of his—
Robin Hood rates with others' hand
ling this tune.
The "Voire" is no longer heard on
the “Hit I’arade" berause it was too
expensive for him to broadrast week
ly from Hiillywiiiid. Sinatra himself
has to spend nearly $ri,(KK) per week
to foot the bil for orrhestra, studio
rental, arransemeiits. line rharges,
etr. His salary—$2,800 per week. But
