Jack Caddigan and Chick Story also cowrote the patriotic WW1 era anthem: We're All Going Calling On The Kaiser.

The war time call to patriotism and supporting the WW1 war effort is also reflected in the ad on the back cover "Sing on to Victory with Songs of Cheer...here are the songs our boys sing when they march away, the choruses they sing in trench and dugout over there, the songs they'll sing when they come marching home from victory".
Condition: the sheet music shows some light wear around the edges, the covers have very light creases, and there is a 1 1/2" split at the base of the spine seam. (see photos).
