ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS 
L. D. — The gold you mention is a secret with the factories. If you buy 
the pure gold which comes m powder form I think you wall find it more of a 
yellow tone. 
Mary y<! . Knight. — We regret that we haven't the color study of Rose 
'I'ray by Ida M. Ferris, which was published in our Rose Book. We give you 
the address of the artist, Mrs. Ida M. Pen-is, Holdridge, Fostoria, O. She 
may furnish you with the required studj-. This inquiry would have been 
answered by mail if you had given xis your address. 
R. G. H. — The design for dinner set was not to be outhned as it was to 
be carried out in one fire. Most pupils like to save as much firing as possible 
and in that case it is well to eneouraKe them to work for one fire when it is 
jjossible, some designs require more. Transparent green lustre requires a 
hard fire, the trouble is not in the firing when it is spotted but in the applica- 
tion. Some dust may have settled into it or some other foreign substance 
that is injurious to it. 
J. C. M. — The treatment for the prize dinner set design was written for 
one fire, so carry it out just as it i.s given; where the outline is between the 
leaves a fine line can be scratclied. The center of the flower is the large 
light spot or pistil. If you prefer uskig an outline you may use Banding 
Blue and Grey for Flesh. It is a matter of choice whether you use pen or 
brush for outlining. The color is thinned with oil of lavender when outlining 
with a brush. You can use your gauge for this work.
