A SONG OUT OF THE ORDINARY

Sweetheart-Do You Remember?Lyric by MAY STANLEY Music by GEOFFREY O'HARA

THE composer of this song knows how to write nothing but successes; andin this melody he had a real inspiration. It is so compounded of rhythm andtunefulness that it tantalizes you into wanting to hear it again, to own it, tolearn it. Try these fetching strains, and see if it is not a truly delightful unionof words and music.
