AMBULATORY THE CHAPEL OF ST- ANSGARIUS IN THE BACKGROUND

parapet offer many engaging problems. In the
niches of the parapet stand the men who were
chosen by the authorities as the greatest men of
the nineteen centuries since the birth of Christ.
A man from Ohio, after spending an hour in a
most careful study of the parapet, exclaimed, "It
is very beautiful as a work of art but the question
naturally arises, 'Are men so much more spiritual
than women that men only should represent the
spiritual greatness of the centuries?' I find women
more spiritual than men and I hope the uncarved

block will be filled by statues of women." Women
angels there are and the woman in the sun, spoken
of in Revelations, shines gloriously down from a
stained glass window.

My tastes in saints and angels are very cath-
olic. While I may have my favorites, I want pic-
tures of them all, but there are times when the
noses of certain male saints are unbelievably
lengthened and they seem to make up faces at me
—perhaps for my belief in women saints.
