HOMEMADE EASTER
MUSIC IN N. Y. CHURCHES

NEW YORK, March 22-Home-
made music will be in vogue for Eas-
ter services in New York churches to-
morrow. In recent years the more
wealthy churches have largely in
creased their expenditures for music.
with the result that many choirs are
being maintained at an expense of
more than $4,000 a year, exclusive of
sums double that amount which are
paid for the maintenance of a few
choir schools
1t is said that there were never so
many composers as at present among
New York choirmasters. and Easter
preparations include more original
music than probably has ever been
given before here.
