Hlumination LEAGUE windows of a practical type will be used. These are a typical form of the English mullioned window, using & number of windows required for light in a group. The group will be sepa- rated by a succession of lintels rather than single arching. Where there is ample height in pro- portion to width and where the strong- est method of construction would be to use arches, these have been employed. In those portions of the church where only a small amount of light will be required the small single lancet win- dow, common in early Gothic architec- ture of the twelfth and thirteenth cen- turies, will be employed. Where a greater amount of light is required large window openings, with stone mullions and graceful window tracery common in Gothic of the fourteenth century, have been planned. As the building develops upward into the belfry windows, ballistrades and pinnacles, the architectural style will develop into a strong resemblance of the designs common in the late four- teenth and fifteenth centuries in Eng- lish towers. The new church is being built by James Baird Co., under the supervision of Abner L. Roe, construction engi- neer, who is supervising work on the ‘Washington National Cathedral during the early part of its construction.
