person. Draw two parrellel lines, each
five inches in length, and connect them
by short lines one inch part so that I
you form FIVE squares, one each way
Now draw two other lines of the same
length and distance apart as the first
two, with the same number of squares)
at right angles to the first so that the two
middle or center squares lap over each
other. 1t is now a cross with two squares
of each arm outside of the center squares
which appear as one square. Now put
separately the figures, from to IN

ed up each way makes the sum 20. And
the outside figures plus the center figure
makes the sum e, and the remaining hg-
ures plus the center figure added make 20

requested that notice through the Flor

out that a full attendance of the entire
association is desired for Saturday, Oc-
tober s, at p. m. sharp. This will be the
most important meeting held since or

about the closing work of the association.

preparation for the operations of the fair
