FRANK COFFIN
QUITS CHURCH
His Tenor Notes No Longer
Thrill Grace Church
Auditors.
Shorty Alter the Shaving
Edict He Fo'ded Up His
Vocal Score.
His Physician Advised Him That II
Would Not Be Prudent for Him
to Sing in Choruses.

With whiskers or without, Frank Coffin,
who has delighted thousands with his
sweet voice, will not sing again at Grace
Episcopal Church after the close of this
month.
As Miss Carrie Gwin, one of the e1ecu-
tives in the musical affairs of the church,
stated yesterday, Ours is a choir of men,
not boys" and it is upon that platform
that these sweet singers are said to stand.
1t has already been told how spirit of
mutiny rose when it was suggested to the
dozen members of the choir that their
incum bel ed with hair. and that an en-
70 cement of the edict calling for q
smooth-faced choir might result in gen.
eral exodus from about the organ.
Be this as it moy the fact remains that
Frank Ccffin has resigned his position.
Whether or not the ordinance of the
ladies controlling the musical board of
Grace Church prohibiting the wearing of
whlskers affected Mr.. Coffin so as to make
him give up a lucrative situation after
two years OF steady employ is q
matter that he alone can tell, and this he
will not do.
Miss Gwin, however, deplores that the
whlskers story ever went beyond tn g
inner circle, as she says that no edIct of the
kind would ever have been enforced, even
if the board had it within its power to
dictate anything of the kind.
at is true" she said, Mr.. Coffin has
resigned from the Grace Church choir
His resignation was requested last week,
and he will cease his connection with the
choir st the end of this month.
THE reason for our request that he re-
sign is understood by HIM and is quite
simple. We requested him to sing in
choruses, and he objected to sing any thing
but solos. His physician, so he said, had
forbidden him singing in choruses, and
we do not need him as a soIoist
"1n other words, we have been paying
him $40 each month to sing for US in
choruses. and as be cannot do it, or will
not, we must look !or some one else who
will.
"Mr. Collins resignation will in no
way affect the remaining members of the
choir"
