REMEMBER THE BUREAU.
The community councils, and especially the Rural Indus- tries Bureau (27 Bedford Square), are winning successes and making discoveries that surprise themselves. Common sense and artistic imagination, both, have marked all the recent activities of the organisers. It is worth the while of any house- holder who has any pleasure in craftsman's work to keep in touch with the Bureau. Leather, iron, embroidery, weaving, pottery, wood turnery, basket and raffia work with much besides are included. An example of clothmaking that es- pecially pleased me during a recent visit to South Wales was the use of local wools that left the weaver free from the need of ally dye. Delightfully patterned black and white and grey cloth is made by the simple device of combining the wools of black mountain and Kerry Hill Sheep.
