The teacher might allow those pupils who drawthis example well to put half-tint consisting of par-allel lines on the background, that is, on the portionof the square not included within the acanthusforms. Half-tint is drawing lines parallel to eachother, leaving the width of a line between twolines. But the mere daubing of a surface with lines run-ning every way is not half-tniting it. The linesshould all run one way, cither vertical, horizontal, oroblique, and then the surface will lock flat. If thereis much difficulty in obtaining this result at first, lethalf-tinting be practised on the slate or blackboards ;for let it be remembered, that to erase faulty half-tinting will spoil any drawing, and, when the pui)il isallowed to use this means of distinguishing the i)artsof a drawing, it must be done firmly and deliber-ately at once, and not done to be erased. 214 TEACHERS MANUAL.
