STUDIO NOTES 
Miss Fanny Scammel, of New York, has given up her 
classes there and opened a studio in Piedmont, California; 
her change of address will be found in the teachers' directory. 
She writes that she can not express sufficient appreciation 
for the affection and regret shown by her pupils at parting. 
The cup and saucer design attributed in August Ker- 
amic Studio to Miss Ophelia Foley is the work of Miss 
Nancy Beyer. The latter has resigned her position with the 
Duquesne Ceramic Club and will take the position of 
Art Instructor at Kendall College, Tulsa, Oklahoma.

SHOP NOTE 
Dorn's catalogue of San Francisco has just arrived 
at this office and we not only congratulate them but the 
Art Printing Company of San Francisco, which did the 
work. 
SWINDLING AGENT 
We have been put to a great deal of annoyance by a 
swindling agent who changes his name in every town and 
offers combinations of Keramic Studio, Palette & Bench, 
Art Decoratif, Dekorative Vorbilder, etc., at ridiculously 
low prices. We have repeatedly warned our friends against 
giving their money to an entire stranger. Is it not better 
to place your order with a reputable dealer or subscription 
agent to whom you can complain in case of non-receipt of 
the magazine, or send direct to us? We will guarantee to 
take care of your order. We will not, however, be responsi- 
ble for any orders given to men who claim to be our agents.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS 
Mrs. O. S. B. — The monogram should face the guest. 
Mrs. L. L. B. M. — You should have no trouble with Miss Ehler's formula 
as a great many people use it very successfully; you are probably not using 
the proper proportions. Another good outlining black is the Muller & Henning 
Outlining Black. It comes ready prepared; use lavender oil for thinning it. 
There is no regular rule for using colors as any colors will harmonize if you 
key them in the same scale. I would advise you to use the treatments given 
for the different studies in the Keramic Studio. A good plan is to make a 
test plate. Divide a Hat plate in about 30 sections and take the color combina- 
tions given in the magazine and make tests of them on this plate and then 
you will be able to see what colors harmonize and make combinations of your 
own.
