REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON COLOR STANDARD. 
The committee would recommend to the Ohio Academy 
the Prang standard of color and advise the use of this 
standard in their descriptive work wherever practicable, 
preferring, however, the full terms so as to be intelligible 
to persons not having the key. In case a well known and 
clearly understood name can be used this should be given 
with the Prang equivalent in parenthesis. 
The use of metallic colors such as golden, silvery, 
coppery, etc., should also be retained.
