interesting things of the exhibition. The design is seen in 
relief, the glaze of the china being etched from the background 
and the whole treated with lustres to produce a rich blue grey. 
The high glaze of the design in contrast with the matt low relief 
is most effective. 
Mrs. Rena 0. Pettersen was another who exhibited fine 
lustre work, three vases being rich color notes in the collection. 
Her plate and tile in dusted color, blue and grey, were pleasing 
in color and satisfying as to design and handling. A Satsuma 
vase in enamels and some good Sedji completed her exhibit. 
Mrs. Grace P. Bush and Miss Amanda E. Edwards both 
attained distinction in their color schemes by the use of black 
combined with rich hued enamels. A cup and saucer, in dark 
blue, orange, gold and black, a salt and pepper in orange lustre, 
design in black, a tiny vase with black stripes and floral band, 
were among Miss Edward's pieces, while Mrs. Bush showed a 
set of plates and a pitcher, good both in design and color com- 
binations.

r I "'HIS design adapts itself well to the outside of a low, flar- 
■*■ ing bowl, as the lower leaves can be omitted and the 
design pinched in at the bottom. Or it may be used as the 
border at the top of a spill vase, in which case the lower black 
band may be omitted and the stem slightly lengthened.

light yellow with orange dots; leaves three shades of green, 
under leaves darkest. Buds light Yellow Green. Long black

Mrs. Valla Ramey sent an exhibit noteworthy for refine- 
ment and artistic feeling. A bisque Belleek vase with soft 
grey background, the design in green and blue enamel, with 
accents of black and orange, was a delightfully "livable" piece, 
as were also her set of tableware in gold and soft blue and a 
Belleek pitcher with an all over design in grey green with accents 
of orange red. A set of Sedji plates with etched border, laid 
with gold and accents of deep blue enamel and a pudding dish 
of Guernsey ware, decorated with a bold design in cream and 
yellow enamel, were other good pieces. 
Mrs. Marie C. Sparks sent part of a Sedji dinner set show- 
ing an elaborate geometric design in gold and rich blue enamel 
with accents of orange. The design was admirably adapted 
to the different shapes and the workmanship of marked ex- 
cellence.

new officers were elected: President, Mrs. Anne T. Brown;
