DESIGN FOR CHILD'S SET-JAPANESE LANTERNS— CARRIE BROSEMER 
LEAGUE NOTES 
There will be no problem for December, but for January 
comes the coupe cake plate with or without handles. A 
geometrical all over design is preferable, but a border will 
receive criticism. Please try to send these early in order 
to make way for the vases and Farrington punch bowl. We 
hope to publish pictures of these vases and bowl in the Jan. 
Keramic Studio. 
The sugar bowl forms, submitted in outline for criticism, 
are so much better than anything we have had during this 
term of office, that we cannot refrain from mentioning 
them. Have you noticed those curling, almost wriggling, 
lines in relief around the base and top of nearly all the sugar 
bowls in our shops, with handles patterned after the human 
ear, stuck on as an afterthought, with bases threatening to 
tip over, spilling the contents, and marbles or rings to lift 
the cover? A design in subdued color no matter how good 
looses all dignity on such a shape. At least a half dozen 
of our outlines ought to be accepted by the manufacturer. 
They have good lines, strong bases, handles that are an 
adequate part, necessary to the beauty as well as a support 
in holding, with covers as carefully thought out as the body 
and with nobs that conform to the general shape. The 
nut bowls are not all in, but they promise well. 
We are happy to announce the addition of two clubs, 
those of Los Angeles, Cal., and Providence, R. I.; also two 
individual members, Miss Helen M. Haines, Duluth,lMinn., 
and Miss Madge L. Gibbons, Alma, Colo.
