CHURCHEsGROWI
IN BEAUTY

Beauty win soon be more evident
than ever before. In American
church construction, 1t IL believed
by DR.. Henry Darlington, rector OF
the Church of the Heavenly Rest
and Chapel of the Beloved Disciple,
New York. The somber tones which
have so long distinguished this form
of architecture in America will be
succeeded by brilliant color, giving
Joy to the beholder. he declares.
The trend of sentiment is clearly
indicated, DR.. Darlington believes.
by the response to plans for the
new $3.50, 900 Church of the Heav.
emily Rest. in which beauty Of color
will be an important feature.
The value OF color has always
been recognized to some extent"
says DIR. Darlington. 1T can exer.
else an almost exaltinE influence
upon ones mood. 1t has been skill.
fully used in church windows and
tapestries and particularly during
the Renaissance, in the marvellous
terra Gotta works in churches
throughout Italy.
American churchses. however,
exhibit practically no structural
color. If it Is proper in windows
and tapestries, it is also proper
when wisely used in vaultinss and
other parts OF the church. The
problem Of its proper application.
of course. is to be solved by the
architect"
Such materials as terra Gotta and
glazed tile afford a wide latitude
for the designer, it is declared by
Hardie Phillip, of the firm Of
Mayors, Murray and Phillip. archi.
tects Of the Church of the. Heavenly
Rest.
The extent to which color. bright
ness and beauty are being increased
in the church. was illustrated at
the services this Easter. I'VE had
flowers Of many brilliant and
beautiful colors, instead Of only of
white, as the usual custom has
BEEN" says DR.. Darlington. "There
were white lilies around the cross,
as always, but the other flowers
were OF many hues.
This was an innovation of
course, but 1t was received with
practically unanimously favorable
comment. The approval was so
great that the idea will be carried
even further in the future.
I'm my opinion. it will be very
much the same with structural
color. l know Of no reason why
it should not be used freely in
churches and elsewhere. True
beauty can have only a wholesome
effect"
