Keep the love lighf glowing In your eyes so blue, Let me caîl you sweefheart, I'm in love wifh you. For nearly 30 years "Let Me Cail You Swecfheart" has been a popular theme sang of Cupid. Young people enter info the spirit of the lines and older folk lobk back over lifc's associations wifh tender emotions. The public has not known the romance which in- spired Beth Salter Whitson ta write this sang. In 1906 a sweet faced lit fie country girl, with a sang in hem soul, began hem studies in the Peabody College af Nashville. Daily, she boarded a suburban street car for the college and daily the young conductor smiled a fmiendly greeting f0 the sby coun- try student. But if was an ac- cident that really st art cd the romance in their young h v es. Fate, one day, derailed the street car and gave the frightened pas- sengers a bad shaking up. As the litf le rcd-headed student clamber- cd ta ber feet she felt a helping hand and was surpmised tu find the dark-eyed young conductor bad passed over ail others and mushed f0 ber rescue. The conventional ice was bmok- en and soon the young canductor, Claude King, was a frequent visitor af the Whitson home. Claude was greatly impressed with Beth's composition of hymics. He was the first ta sing themn and encouraged hem in seIl- ing them ta publishing houses. In 1909 she first met witb success in Chicago and soon was launcbed on ber prafessional career as a sang writer. Like many ather damposers she lacked business shrewdncss and, thmough lack of fomesighf or confidence in their womf b, she sold ber songs f00 cheaply. Beth's first financial shock came when she sold her lyric "Meef Me Tonight in Dreamland" for $15.00. Lea Friedman, the composer, boughf the piece outright and resold if ta the publishers for $7,000. The publishers made such a profit fromn sales they gave Miss Whît- son a manthly allowance of $100 in royalties. If was a loyers' quammel that brought Beth and Claude to the pamting of the ways. He gave up bis position as conductor and be- dame an outstandîng success in the business womld. He neyer mamried, but was always generous ta the Whitsan family. Betb mar- mied a distant cousin of the same name, but hem nerves gave way and she was an invalid for the last five years of ber life which ended in 1930.- If was af the peak of ber career in 1910 that Miss Whitson wrote hem mast famous sang "Let. me call you sweetheamt" wbich gives every indication of being popular for many years fa came. t h -e anniversffy services at Nestlcton.
