I found this, at
http://www.rism.harvard.edu/MusicLibrary/newbooks/September97_bks.html
(New Books at the Eda Kuhn Loeb Music Library -- September 1997):

Eitz, Carl, 1848-1924. Das Tonwort : Bausteine zur musikalischen
Volksbildung. Leipzig :
Breitkopf & Hartel, 1928. -- [HOLLIS# AIP5489]=20
Loeb Music: Mus 295.22.100=20

So then I searched at
http://lcweb2.loc.gov/resdev/ess/
(The Library of Congress Experimental Search System):

So now I want to go try to find the 7th book at a local bookstore (since I
don't speak German). I hope the above info helps!

P.S.: If you send any swiss chocolate, send the nutrition label with it,
showing "total grams carbohydrate", so I can figure out how much insulin to
take with it...
