On this and the following page are recent works by two such skilled and devout moderns. The mosaic Station of the Cross (above] was done for Mt. Angel Abbey at St. Benedict, Ore. by a 55-year-old Californian named Louisa Jenkins. The stained-glass Sermon from the Boat (overleaf) is a replica detail of a window in St. Ann's Chapel of Stanford University at Palo Alto, Calif...
