1616-1916- The SHAKESPEARE TERCENTENARY is being celebrated throughout the nation. In schools and colleges, clubs, dramatic societies and social organizations of all kinds the value and beauty of Shakespeare's contributions to English literature are being recognized and acclaimed upon this, the 300th anniversary of his death. Plays, pageants, and festivals, commencement and other anniversary celebrations, are being prepared, and upon all these occasions music based on the writings of Shakespeare is a desirable, almost an essential element. Indeed, music will play an important part in the commemoration activities, as special Shakespearean concerts, commencements, and recitals are being planned by schools and by vocal and instrumental organizations throughout the country.
That these FAVORITE SONGS FROM SHAKESPEARE may be available for the widest variety of occasions, the list price has been fixed at the low price of 10 cents.
