"Many-of the 'good old hymns' are neither, good nor old," said Vernon DeTar, a member of the Joint Commission on music for the Episcopal church and organist-choirmaster of New Y'ork's Church of the. Ascension. He also advised that songs such as "O' Promise me" should not be sung or played at "church weddings because "they are not suitable at a religious service.". . "The really old hymns go back to the 16th century, while we. use little that was written before the 19th century," DeTar pointed out. "Wg should begin to use some of this early good music, as well as some of the fine new hymns being written if we wish to raise the standards of music in the church." The. music expert thus con trasted the tw-o versions of the hymn '.'For all the Saints." "The 19th century version has a weak melody and cloying har mony; "The one written in the 20th century has strength in all three elements melody, harmony and rhythm." DeTar believes, however, that as poor, hymns fall into". disuse they will be eliminated from the Episcopal hymnal. No revision is expected before the next .print ing in about 1965, he added. .
