Show VALUABLE WINDOWS ARE BEING REPLACED PARIS, Dec. 27. (By the Associated Press.) The valuable and ancient stained glass windows of the Paris churches, which were removed to places of safety during the bombardment of the capital by German long-rang-e guns, are being rapidly replaced. The wonderful mediaeval glass of Notre Dame and the Sainte Chapelle has already been returned, and now the windows of five other old churches, Saint Gervals, Saint Severin, Saint Merry, Saint Etienne du Mont and Saint Germain PAuxerrols, are to be put back. These are all very fine specimens of the Renaissance art. The windows of only one of the old Paris churches were seriously damaged by the war. those of Saint Denis, which were partly shattered by the explosion at Courneuve. |
