FACTORS IN DETERMINING
 COLOR QUALITY
GOLDEN AGED


 Three factors enter into the deter imitation of color quality; viz, hue, value, and chroma or intensity, as there are three factors in connection with tone G. e.. pitch, intensity, and duration), three in connection with light G. e., wave length, wave ampli- tude, and wave complextty), and three in the realm of the electric current-voltage ampheage and oh mage.
 Hue has to do with the chromatic scale of primary and binary colors, ranging from pure yellow as the highest note to pure violet as the deepest. But any one hue on the chromatic scale can be diluted with either white or black thus forming tints and shades respectively, rang ing all the way from almost white to almost black. All these tones (either the normal color or it's tints and shades) we call values of the given normal color A new scale is formed by this process, very much as a, singer ascertains his own register, | then sings the scale within his own range and with his own personal quality of note. Or it is perhaps l more clearly comparable with a mus | ical key. But any value of any hue l can be grayed by the addition of it's ; complement. and thus the intensity or luminosity of the original tone is reduced.
 | A color dictionary has been pub | lished with some thirty thousand hues, values, and intensities printed and designated. This means that in stead of twelve hues there would be, say, fifty of each hue; instead of two | intensities there would be, say ten 1 This would make the thirty thousand | though the hues, values, and intensi- ties may not be divided in just that proportion. Probably the trained eye i can discern twice this many tones but they would not be practical for | present-day commercial purposes.
 Mass is, of course, the sole distinc- ton as to quantity; but it is import ant. A small amount of brilliant red might be very pleasing, but great quantity abhorrent.

set of circular letters answering every conceivable sort of question pertain ing to his busin ess, indexed them and then dism issed the greater part of his clerical force.
 MT. Lee told one amusing result. A customer complained that a drip pan was missing from a shipment. The inexperienced girl who answered the complaint looked up goods in the index and followed it down until she found the word '1ost-'' She then sent out a circular letter saying that the league always took the greatest care to see that there was no short age in shipments, and if the con signee would shake up the excelsior in the bottom of the box undoubted- ly would find the missing object.
 After a years fight, the Vigilance Committee obtained conviction, and sent the head of the league to prison.
 Another man formed a company ostensibly to build tractors, using the name Ford, for Henry Ford was at that time said to be contemplating marketing a tractor. The swindler picked up telephone book, ran down the list of Fords until he found a machinis+ He called on this man and told him that he had been highly
 
 him to superintend the construction of the first machine. The machinist had an easy time at high pay for few weeks, dropping in on the head of the company to make suggestions once in a while. When the first trac- tor was nearing completion, the swindler told him that his work hao been so valuable that it had been decided to name the machine for him, and got him to sign a paper admitting this use. When this paper was signed, he too disappeared from the payroll, and the stock selling be gan. The Vigilanc- Comm ttee als. obtained the conviction of this man.
 Another bogus company, formed in Akron. in the heart of the tire indus try, sold its stock chiefly to reople in that city, through the power of advertising, although any one of the purchasers could have ascertained that the claims made were untrue by visiting the factory which was situat- ed within 20 miles.
 MT. Lee tells of visiting a man, now in prison, whom he describes as the country's foremost swindler. He asked for another international con fidence man. who had been associat- ed with the first and learned that they had ceased to correspond.
 t'Did you know that he had a for tuner" MT. Lee asked.
