Organ and Youth

I loved the organ in my city ministry, and its hissing and popping when one switched it on.  We had, though, a problem of ... sequence, in that our very chaotic youth met on Friday nights, and we often had funerals or weddings on Saturday mornings -- and of course, Sunday services. Organists would often practice on Friday mornings when the office was open. In a worst case, we had youth unplugging organ pipes and blowing into them! Then, when they put them back, they were off key.  Some organists were quite laid back. They switched on and said, "OK! Let's fire this baby up!" and such like. But there was one organist who got terribly upset to discover what the youth had done the night before -- not least, playing with stops. One night they smashed the lightbulb at this organist's feet. One polite organist said to me, "Do you hear what I hear? But look, I can switch it off with this stop!" OBSERVATION: We tried heroically to prevent any tampering with the organ. The images show some of the organ's innards.
