Turkey Trotting
to Talking Machine
Music is the "Rage"
Nothing llko tho present uraze of tho
turkey trot has been known In years,
and the popularity of this new style
dnnce has also lnorcased the popularity
of tho Victor as a means of providing
tho necessary dancn muetc. The demand
for records for accompanying the new
dupecs Is tremendous, and following the
Issuance ot six turney trot and tango
numbers recently added to the extensive-
lint of Victor dance music, six more tur
key trots are announced In the new list
of April Victor Records. They nro splen
did dance numbers, brilliantly played In
perfect tempo as good dance music as
anyone could wish, and those who do
not dance will at least enjoy listening to
such lively selections as the "Gertrude
Hoffman aildc." "Too Much Mustard,"
Marletto" and the "Parlslcnne Turkey
Trot."
