evident in his quaintly modeled bowls and jars, built by hand 
of a soft buff clay, smeared here and there with a tinge of iron 
red, which gives the mellowing effect of having been caressed 
by the fire and the hand of time. This clay is of his own 
mixing, the ware is un-glazed and fired at a low tempera- 
ture, but is truly artistic and American in feeling. The forms 
are sometimes undecorated, and sometimes have an incised 
design simple and Indian in character, the snake design, so 
frequently used by him this year, being one of his own con- 
ceptions, but truly in keeping with the character of the ware. 
Mr. Fry showed also some interesting little pieces of pottery

with matt o glazes, made and fired by himself. His new over- 
glaze exhibit was confined to a few bowls and plates and a 
tobacco jar with severely conventionalized bands of decoration 
exceedingly well designed and spaced and executed with a 
refined and pleasing taste. The bowls were of Japanese ware, 
"Satsuma," a rich cream with a fine crackle, the decorative 
bands of sombre color harmonizing well with the ground. 
The plate designs were executed in a soft blue grey on white. 
His conventionalized Fleur de Lis vase in violet and grey 
tones, and his Japanesque vase of white storks and reeds on 
a rich black ground, have been seen before but are always 
admirable. 
Miss Emily Peacock showed a few pieces modeled by 
hand and some cast from molds designed and made by her- 
self. In all that she does she shows. an exquisite taste and 
simplicity. Her over-glaze decorations are carried out en- 
tirely in greys and blues. The tea caddy of unglazed pottery 
was crowned very appropriately with a silver top which she 
herself made as she did also the bronze, copper and silver 
stands for her delightful tea tiles.

Mrs. Vance Phillips also exhibited a few modeled and 
glazed pieces of pottery, but she sends us photographs of 
some more ambitious pieces which she tells us were designed,
