but there was certainly room for some im-
provement in the way the exhibits were dis-
played, as well as in the cataloguing. Now
that the Institute is no longer subsidised by
the Treasury but has to rely on subscrip-
tions and other voluntary support, its suc-
cess will, to some extent, depend on the
effective arrangement of exhibitions such as
this, difficult though it may be to deal with a
miscellaneous collection. 000

STUDIO-TALK.

(From our own Correspondents.)

LONDON.—As our frontispiece this
month we give a reproduction in
colours of a delightful study of mountain
scenery in the Loch Awe region from the

on view assortments of their productions—
such as Messrs. Wedgwood 6c Son, Messrs.
Doulton 6c Co., the Pilkington Company,
and besides these there were many exhibits
of varied kinds from smaller producers of
domestic and ornamental pottery, those of
Messrs. Carter, Stabler 6c Adams of Poole,
Dorset, being of special interest both in
technical quality and artistic appearance. A
fine group of glass vessels of diverse uses
came from the Whitefriars Works of Messrs.
Powell 6c Son. The section devoted to
printing and cognate industries, though
small by comparison with some of the
others, disclosed some excellent examples
of practical typography, poster designs and
printing,bookillustration,woodcuts (among
others an interesting group by Mr. Alec.
Buckels), caligraphy and illumination, book-
binding, etc. Apart from these main
categories a small number of stained glass
panels were shown including several by
Mr. B. Nelson of which one is here repro-
duced, and several examples of Mr. Ber-
nard Rice's distinctive work. With these
executed specimens a number of cartoons
by Mr. Anning Bell and others were on
view. 000000
On the whole the quality of the work
shown in this exhibition reflected great
credit on the numerous executants and on
