Tho 1920 rico crop loss was caus'

Christmas CaroHng To Take Many
Forms This Year

The custom of. outdoor carol. sing
ing on Christmas Eve, which has
been spreading through the country
so rapidly during the past few years,
has in the course of its extension de-
veloped different characteristics in
various cities, which are coming in
for serious discussion, now that the
Yuletide season is approaching, by
community workers and others who
will organize this years singing
groups. The National Bureau for
the Advancement of Music, which
made survey of the cities in which
caroling through the streets was done
last year, at the same time made a
study Of the methods followed in re-
hearsing and -costuming the itinerant
bands, mapping out the districts to
be covered, selecting stopping places,
and collecting funds for charitable
purposes where this was feature of
the arrangements.
This study shows that where the
town has a Community Christmas
Tree in some central place it is usual
for the carolers to meet and sing in
body around the tree before di-
viding up into groups to visit the
residential sections In the absence
/ of a general rendezvous the starting
place of each group is as rule the
church., school house or community
! center where it has been rehearsed
There are rarely more than Is sing
ers in a band and rarely less than
10 They are for the most part young
people, although it has been found
that the presence of few older folks
lends dignity and insures close adher-
ence to the business in hand. a.
Many cities are following the plan
first adopted and most thoroughly
worked out in Detroit, of mapping
out the entire city so tn at every
neighborhood may be served and the
routes of the travelling singers may
not conflict. , Lighted candles in the
windows are the signal to the carol
ers to stop and give their music. II
has also been the practice in Detroit
to collect money during the Singing
for the local Children's Aid Society
so that music may be the means OF
bringing material help to the unfor.
tunates while giving spiritual pleas.
