Now You Can Take It For Granted
That That Is Music By Sidney
By HARRY Mac ARTHUR
Habit, if you don't mind the ob
vious not only dissected but vivi
sected before your very eyes, is a
strong influence. It makes a man
on his way to and fro between bus
and office cross Twelfth street be
fore he crosses Pennsylvania ave
nue, just as if there were some law
about it. It makes him refer con
tinually to the Earle Theater, no
matter what the Warner Bros, want
it to be named. It makes him think
always of that hotel as the Pow
hatan, no matter how long it has
been the Roger Smith. It makes
him wander around under the
delusion that there still is a Con
duit road here in Washington, even
if it does seem to have disappeared
during the war.
28 YEARS AND STILL A LEADER! ABC oil
burners have been doing a consistent job of sat
isfying the heating needs of the Nation's home
owners. Almost 7,000 satisfied users in greater
Washington testify to its dependable and eco
nomical performance.

SLEEP TONIGHT
FEEL FRESH AS A
DAISY TOMORROW
Don’t let constipation and accompanying acid
indigestion keep you awake tonight, spoil
your day tomorrow. Toke Double-Action
PHILLIPS’ for marvelous two-way relief!
Frequently, when you need a laxative, you need an antacid, too. This it
because constipation and sleep-robbing add indigestion often come together.
By taking Double-Action Phillips’ Milk of in .
Magnesia at bedtime, you relieve both conditions.
For Phillips’ not only is one of the fastest, most
effective antacids known, but also is a marvelous
laxative. As a result, it works two ways.
It quickly eases away the acid condition, *o
you’ll enjoy a night of deep and restful slumber.
And when you awaken in the morning, it brings
you gentle constipation relief, so you start the
new day in fine fettle—feeling frisky as a colt!

There comes a time, though, when
a new habit (well, comparatively
speaking) must be set in place to
take over lor an older one that has
gone out of fashion. The other day
one of the papers carried a picture
of the festivity in progress at some
local affair, with a caption stating
that the dancers could be seen dis
porting themselves to the music of
the “Meyer Davis orchestra.” Now,
this undoubtedly was set down by
an old-line Washington society re
porter, who simplified her life long
ago by taking it for granted that
any music she hears at any func
i tion she attends is Meyer Davis
, music.
Things have changed, thougl^.
I That society reporter still can sim
' plify her life, all right, but she can
make her batting average look a
lot better if she just assumes the
music she hears at any party is
music by Sidney. That’s what it
was in the case at hand. This may
make some other people who book
bands for private parties unhappy
with us, but it can’t be helped.
What we know is that Sidney music
is imperative enough for any debu
tante function that he has already
been signed up for two coming-out
parties scheduled for December,
1949. That's 1949, not 1948. If you
want Sidney music in December,
1948, it may even now be too late.
This warm air the winds have
washed up here from the Gulf of
Mexico may not have held much
promise of it, but autumn is upon
u*. With it, autumn is bringing
a considerable flurry of increased
activity on the After Dark scene.
Item: Guy Lombardo and orches
tra arrive at the Embassy Room of
the Statler Hotel on September 15.
It seems to have been only the
boat that he fractured in the Gold
Cup mishap and not his arm. That
was only sprained badly, which is
enough, but not enough to keep
him from bringing the “sweetest
music this side of heaven” to the
Embassy Room as scheduled.
Item: The Club Cairo reopens on
September 22, operating under com
pletely new management which has
some interesting ideas about run
ning a night club. “We don’t want
those $100 spenders,” a spokesman
was saying the other day. “Oh,
we ll serve them, of course. Their
money’s as good as any body's
money. But we won’t be catering to
them. What we want to do is have
a place where a man can bring a
date, have a couple of drinks, eat a
nice dinner, see a show and get out
under 10 bucks. We’d rather have
the place filled with people like that
than have a few ‘big spenders’ |nd
a lot of empty tables. The people
who find out it's a nice place, with
decent food and doesn’t cost too
much are the ones who’ll keep com
ing back and build a steady busi
ness. ’ The management doesn’t
have any delusions of grandeur
about the floor shows, either, but
hopes to keep them entertaining.
First headliners will be a comedian
whose name was on the tip of the
three fingers we use for typing
when we started this sentence and
Sonny Skylar, the popular singer.
There'll be continuous music at the
Cairo when shows are not in pro
gress, Sparty Ddfitto’s orchestra al
ternating with a rumba band
rencently at New York's Stork Club.
It just came back. The comic's
name is Artie Dann.
Item: The Shoreham Blue Room,
with Barnes music, of course, re
opens in accordance with the
weather, as has already been re
ported. This should be around
September 20, with the Palladiah
Room following about September
23. Those two places make it
awfully difficult for a man w#io lives
north of the Shoreham to get south
of it.
Item: The Club Bali has quite a
season lined up, with Louis Arm
strong. Cab Calloway and others
scheduled for appearance. The
season starts off, as you probably
know already, with the engagement
of Billie Holiday, the top-notch
