Fred Townsley and Mrs. M. H. Bartels have been added to the com­ mittee she said. She also pointed out the question often arises when talking about An- , tique Glass, “When, Bow and Where wa* it made?” This is a large sub­ ject and requires mqch reading but fortunately: one may find'very inter­ esting books on the subject in large Libraries, or they can be purchased _ in large stores if one wishes to have suph. books for study, * In her book on “Ea rly . American Pressed Glass” Ruth Webb Lee gives a little of the early history of mak­ ing glass. . She says,“The A rt of pressing .glass -into molds..was known to the ancient Egyptians, h u t.it was not until the late 1820’s that Yankee ingenuity began-to experiment successfully with machinery for the purpose.1’ x “Machine pressed glass was known in England but credit goes to Anjer- ipans fqr perfecting the method of glass, making. “The pressed 'lead flint glass was made as early as 1830, the lead giv­ ing t o , the glass a clear bell-tone When tapped, as well as greater bril­ liancy and weight” “With the exception of few fact­ ories,. practically the last of. the lead glass' for- table use ceased to be made shortly after the Civil War, when it- Became commercially imper­ ative to find cheaper products. Lime glass cajne in and with it disappeared the bpU-like fing of the old glass.” “With the advent of- the cheaper lime* glass came also the production in quantity of the: colored pattern glass so largely collected today. . When one speaks of early Amer­ ican glass, type, pattern, decorative technique and quality of glass are considered rather than to date. In the field of -American glass, many of the finest specimens were - blown in obscure factories scattered throughout the New England States, New York, Penn., New Jersey, Ohio, Maryland and- that part Vinglnla that is now West Virginia during the early and mid-nineteenth Century period. * DIVORCE SUITS Charging cruelty, John B.
