were to enlighten the uninformed, instead of throwing out

an insinuation of untruthfulness. As I said in the article in the REVIEW, tthe critic has a riglht to hiis opinion, but he

has 71o right to arrogate to hiimself the functions of an in

fallible judge, and to attempt to dictate that an accepted teclhnical term, whzich clearly defines the process emipfloyed, shall be expunged from the vocabulary. To throw such a term together with puerilities like pen-and-ink " etching" is at best a questionable proceeding.

Respectfully, S. R. KOEHLER.
