There is a splendid exhibition of

about 1900 to the most recent pro-

oratlonS are entering SO largely into
the table service Mr.. Walter Rendell
Storey, in writing of the exhibition,
says that glass making is one of the
few crafts in which the methods
have remained unchanged. He calls
attention to the fact that in modern
Spanish peasant glass, as well as
sixteenth century Venitian and Stiegel
and South Jersey types. for example,
the same decorative use may be OBJ
served of the natural plastic form
Of the material in handles and applied
ornamentation. Those familiar with
Stiegel glass and the colored enamel
ing which his German workmen in
troduced into this country. may be
seen in ancient Venitian and German
examples. There are some lovely
pieces of Rene Lalique glass. also
