The entire work was executed by
Rudy Bros, Pittsburg, Pa, and the.
designs were all made by Mr.. J.
Horace Rudy. The glass is all op al
escent. The figure work is all of the
drapery and mosaic style of work
which is secured by double and triple
plating there being no painting cx-
cept the flesh. There is beautiful
harmony of coloring in all the win
dows, the prevailing colors being
green and gold. enriched by the mo-
sale work. It's not often that church
committees get more than they ex
pect, but these windows far surpass
the expectation of the committee in
beauty and artistic taste.
