The Drawing Paper. The most inexpensive paper for chalk talk work is the kind onwhich newspapers are printed. It may be purchased from printinghouses, paper dealers or newspaper offices. A cheap quality of book-paper is also good, and may be bought from printing houses and paperdealers.

The lines which you intend to place onit may be worth infinitely more than the goods he plans to wrap in it. 10
