With Choir and Orgdnist

The musical public of Harrisburg
is manifesting unusual interest in
choir developments just now. Atten-
tion has been directed for the past
fortnight to Grace Methodist church,
where efforts are being made to put
the music on the highest plane pos
sible. This doesn't mean that the
work of John w. Phillips has not
counted toward progress. The fact
Is that the choirmaster who goes to
Stevens Memorial church with the
first Sunday in July infused much
enthusiasm into music affairs OF the
church and the well wishes of the
congregation will be with him in his
new work, member of the official
board said to-day.
William r. Stonesifer. who has
been 'organist at Grace Church foI
number of years. has found that
the duties of earning a real liveli'
hood outside the music profession
compel him to forego much needed
time at the instrument and he. there
fore, will retire when the new or
ganist and choirmaster. Bernard R
Mausert comes to the city in Sep
tember.
A well-known musician said to-day;
THE fact of the matter is that
churches pay too little salary to the
musicians they expect to maintain a
high standard in church music. 1t Is
quite proper that therebe good preach
ing. but church bodies do not realize
this. They figure by some strange sort
of reasoning that good music should
come to them free, or nearly so. There
are choirmasters in Harrisburg who
receive as low as SIS per month and
singers who give their services foi
as little as $3.50 and 50 per Sunday
This. to my mind, is a positive shame
for choirmasters must study and plar
| and singers must take lessons and
buy music"

were started early in the year and
are in use already. Others need a
few more finishing touches, such as
installation of lighting futures, pa
pering and minor improvements, be-
fore they will be ready.
In Derry street, on both sides,
from Twentyfourth street to the
city limits; Cloverly Heights, Riv-
erside, near Bellevue Park, near
of Sixteenth and Herr streets,
projects are under way or to be
started.
Building operations in the city
are rapidly increasing and in the
next few weeks much more new
work will be started, Building In
spector James H. Grove said to-
day.
The situation in Harrisburg is
encouraging. Many of the contrac-
tors and builders are aware of the
fact that there can be little change
in the price of labor and materials
and they are going ahead now" Mr..
Grove said. There is actually a
shortage of carpenters in the city
and all the men in the other build
ing trades need not look long to
find jobs. Conditions are much
better than I had anticipated early
in the spring.
This summer I believe a mum Der
of new projects which as yet have
not been announced will be started.
There should be more home build
ing, but that will come. too. Last
year less than a score of houses
were built, while this year more
than 100 are being constructed al
ready and many of them will be
ready for occupancy by early fall.
Developments in the outlying
sections of the city are encouraging.
Streets which until few years ago
were bordered by vacant lots are
lined with modern residences, built
singly or in pairs. In the Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth wards par
ticularly this is noticeable.
In addition to the new buildings
which are going up, much remod-
cling work is being done, indicat-
ing that property owners realize the
importance of modern improve
ments."
Contractors and real estate men
in the city also predict further in
creases in building work during the
next few months, which will aid in
bringing the city back to its nor
NAL stride in construction of new
buildings.
