FIRST WAR MEMORIAL
PLACED IN RICHMOND

beauty has been erected in All Saints
church of this city by Miss J. Porter

Cadet Royal Flying Corps No. 1h4.472.
1t is a bold and impressive concep-
ton Of the heroic figure of St Michael,
the archangel. who. according to the
twelfth cha pier of REGULATIONS. fought
with his angels against tfe dragon.
that old serpent called the devil
and cast him out Of heaven.
The heavenly knight, clad in arnor
Of FURNISHED metal and holding u his
right haNd a long and slender lance,
stands vibrant with youth and steady
purpose and with a clear and lever
gaze envisages a peace and victory
achieved only through battle In holy
cause. In his vigorous and upright
figure and expressive features one
reads a selnessness and lofty ideal
which challenges the heart to imme-
diate sympathy.
II is noteworthy that the scheme OF
color carried out in this memorial is
not only In itself a thing OF genuine
beauty and satisfaction but sustalns
the symbolism and intention OF the
theme and the artists deGign, mas
much az the opaiescent purity of the
saint armor suggests outward tangi-
Bile evidence of protection which an
invincihle spirituality and righteous
ness affords TO pure spirit within.
and in the delicate glory of color shed
from the heavens upon the magnifi-
cent spread OF wings above the fig
ure one sees sYmbolized the ethereal
Ify OF which his soul is a part but
separate and individual.
