18 In the experimental dyeinglaboratory we were shown vats for the making of dyes and the dyeing of yarn, and closets in which to hang the dyed material to dry. We were also shown a small printing machine with apparatus for printing dots and stripes on finished cloth, and the machine for the mercerizing of thread. The last department we visited was that of freehand drawing and design. Here the students make the drawings for the design for their cloth and transfer it to point paper. This is paper which is checked off by line lines into sixteenth inch squares, with a heavy line every eight squares, to facilitate counting. The lines going one way represent the warp, and those going the other way, the filling threads, and by this means the students are enabled to represent on paper their design as it would be woven. When a warp thread is to be on top, the square is darkened or filled in with the color of the thread, and so on. In these rooms were samples of cloths and carpets designed and woven by the students, some of them very beautiful. There were also pictures woven of black and white silk, so finely, that they very closely resembled etchings. Mr. Ferguson told us that the students were in the habit of making the cloth for the suits they were to wear for graduation, doing every step themselves, de- signing, dyeing, spinning and weaving. When we came from the designing room, we found that it was after four, so we went back to the oliice and got our coats and said 'tgood-bye to Mr. Eames, thanking him and the others for their courtesy. We walked from the school to the station, about a mile, arriving there in time for the 5.22 train home, getting back about half past six, all feeling that we had had a delightful and instructive trip.
