Can you give directions for
painting on silk?
The principal object to be obtained
in preparing the fabric is to take
care that the stuff does not become
brittle from painting upon it and
this Is prevented by using the colors
as flat as possible, so that the ma.
terial does not strike in the fabric
too much. In order to stop the
colors from coming through on the
other side, a size made from four
parts Of gelatine and ten parts of
water, with from ten to twenty
drops Of glycerine added to each
quarter pint of the galatine and
water solution should be put on the
outlines Of the design. The size
should be dry to the touch before
painting is begun. Tube colors in
oil are best suited for the purpose
and several applications are required
to bring out the effect properly. The
colors must be as free from oil as
possible, especially on the first coat.
To make the colors less oily. extract
some Of the oil from the color by
placing it on blotting paper for a
short time. Use brushes or pencils
with bristles as short as possible
and trim these to suit For large
surfaces it is best to draw as much
Of the oil from the colors as posi-
BILE and add to the color a little
heavy painters varnish and enough
turpentine to make it flow freely
from brush or pencil. For sizing
silk that is not exposed to dampness,
one part of white of egg and two
parts water will answer very WELL

Chaos In MiddIewest
Initial moves in the survey win

casting stations has precipitated q
condition of exceptional chaos.
A portable radio bfoadcasting and

Experts explained that only by
this method can the Government
determine scientifically the proper
location of broadcasting stations.
Also the survey will fix the
maximum number of stations which
can operate in the country.
An embargo on the issuance OF
broadcasting permits has been
established by Secretary Of Com
merce Hoover.
About $50 stations, representing
an investment of approximately
$S.00O,0 900 are now in operation.
During the past eighteen months
