Ironstone china and goblets reflect 19th century homes
An essay on ironstone china tracing its 1813 Mason patent, 1850 Morley sale, and later imitators. It describes white ware with relief designs, patterns like wheat and forget me nots, and the use of large tureens for stew and chowder. The piece notes sturdy goblets such as bull's eye and cannon ball and praises primitive furnishings.

IceHouse comedy ends with flair and slips on set
Review notes lively overacted plot with Tom Lackey Keats for humor though a bit young. Pat Landsman charms with eye blinking flirtations while Tom Stone mirrors the cast’s mood. John Heist’s elaborate set causes slips on a steep stair. Elmo Adams directs his second IceHouse show and earns encouragement for future work.
