ST. Agnes Catholic Church in Shep-
herlstown has been very greatly I'M
proved and beautified the past week by
having new art glass windows installed
to replace the old windows. The work
was done by Messrs. L. NJ. Gettier and
c. Gerhardt, of the Gettier Studio, $50
North Howard street, Baltimore. The
windows, while of simple design, are
very pretty and artistic. The colors are
chaste and subdued and entirely harmo-
NOUS, and the general effect is most
pleasing. The windows are all memo
rails. The large window in the front OF
the church, which represents the SiStine
Madonna, is memorial 10 the deceased
members OF the Hodges family. Other
windows are memorials to George
Thomas Hodges, Marian Louisa Getting
er, |. S. Tanner, Fitzgerald family. David
