directly on the copper plates in
stead Of making pencil sketches
first. Then I don't lose any of the
freshness of my inspiration"
She had innumerable tools before
her-steel needles which cut
through the wax grounds spread
over the plates for etchings and a
diamond pointed instrument used
for the dry points.
Much Patience Required
I was amazed at the amount of
patience required to complete an
etching as she explained its pro-
cesses, one as important as another
Mistakes are difficult to correct.
Deep lines must be scraped out with
a sharp tool or FURNISHED with
charcoal" she explained.
The etching process follows: Acid
bites out the lines. To vary the
depth and width of the lines more
patience is required. For very fine
lines the plate must be removed
from the acid and the lines covered
with a stopping out varnish. The
plate is returned to etch other lines
deeper This process is repeated as
many times as there are gradationS
OF tone.
When the plate looks satiSfac-
tory, I'm eager to make an express
sion on the moistened paper. Some
times I have to make several prints,
and make changes in the etching
before I am satisfied with the re-
suit" she said.
The printing is as important as
the drawing and etching. The ink
must be rubbed into the lines and
the surplus removed.
I use my palm to rub out the
ink to satisfy me. Some women
etchers don't like to make their
own prints. because this part of the
process is too dirty. like the thrill
of seeing the final result of my
work"

ceived plurality of less than 1900
votes in New York State, Lea said.
This margin brought the whole New
York electoral vote to Cleveland and
put him in the White House.
II wouldn't go so far as to say
that Congress might approve the
change this session." Lea said. "It
Is far-reaching and deserves careful
thought. Naturally many members
Of Congress have not decided what
stand to take.
Republicans Oppose Plan.
THE Committee on Election of
President repor ted the resolution fa-
vorably last session by a unanimous
vote, however, and I expect its ap-
proval again. President Roosevelt has
said be favors it."
Opposition to the proposal centers
around Republican contentious that
it would strengthen the Democrats
chances Of staying in power. Some
Republicans say the solid South, with
the usual proportion of Democratic
votes in the North, would assure
such a result.
Lea still would give each State
the same number of electoral votes
as It has Senators and Representa-
tives in Congress.
