The Atlan Ceramic Art Club of Chicago observed its 
twentieth anniversary recently, reviewing its work in general 
in the past, and its pioneer labors in being the first to blaze the 
way for the general introduction of conventional decoration 
on china, its struggles to obtain recognition, and its successes, 
also the work planned for the immediate future. In all these 
years of work the Art Institute of Chicago has encouraged the 
Club and watched its gradual progress up to last year when 
it invited the Atlan Club to place a permanent exhibition in 
its art galleries. 
So far as we know this is the first time that such an exhibi- 
tion has been requested. The Atlan Club has had its meeting 
place headquarters at the Institute for many years, and because 
of these many favors and the annual exhibitions given each 
fall, the Club presented it with one thousand dollars to go to 
the endowment fund. 
CORRECTION 
In the May advertisement of W. A. Maurer, of Council 
Bluffs, la., the line directly above the firm name, "Full line of 
designs from the Original Design Exchange" has nothing to do 
with the offer of $1.95 for the Outfit Box. The offer in question 
is for the Outfit Box and the Limoges Colors only.

Tj^IRST FIRING — When painting white fiowers, put in 
A the dark touches around them first. In this study use 
Shading Green and Moss Green for the darkest leaves; Moss 
Green and Yellow Brown for the light leaves; stems, use Vio- 
let and Brown Green; then paint shadows in roses with Copen- 
hagen Blue and Yellow very thin; the centers are Yellow and 
Yellow Brown with touches of Auburn Brown. The back- 
ground is Copenhagen Blue, Violet for deepest coloring; Vio- 
let and Apple Green for lighter tones and a little Lemon Yel- 
low around the flowers. 
Second Firing — Touch up leaves with colors used in first 
fire. The roses have a little Lemon Yellow in the lighter 
ones, and a very thin wash of Apple Green and Yellow for 
those in shadow; touch up centers again using colors used 
in first firing. 
ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS 
E. H. — Your trouble is in the ware. They usually fire all right although 
you run a risk, but they do not .stand the weight of one pieee on top of the 
other. 
Mrs. J. J. H. — We have never heard of china painters colie and do not 
believe it is due to your work. 
M. J. J. — We do not know of anything to eover the unglazod si)ots 
besides the flux which you have mentioned. The cau.se of j-our gold burnish- 
ing off is very likely due to being underfired. Use the Garden Lavender Oil 
for mixing gold, the Flower Lavender is too oily. The address of the Keramic 
Supply Co. is Lidianapolis, Ind. We do not know where the gauge fan be 
found.
