Cross and Squares. 99 Directions.—In the lower left-hand space (p. 8, hlank) draw a two-inch square, with its diagonals. In a square the di-agonals are always equal, and cross each other at the centre ofI the square. Divide each dJagonal into eight equal parts. By the aid of these points of di\-ision complete the figure. This willI make a good time exercise, to be: drawn by the pupils on the black-I board, or on their slates. If it isI so used, you will need to drawI it carefully on the blackboard before the class begin to Two Triangles Interwoven. Directions.—In right-hand space (p. 8) draw an equilat-eral triangle, sides four inches each side into thirds, andthi-ough the points of division drawlines to form a second triangle of thesame shape and size as the the inner triangles parallel tothe outer ones. The triangles hav-ing been all sketched complete, in-terweave the bands, when you linein, making each go under, then over,the other, as in the copy. When 3ou have to draw figures, portions of whichare invisible, sketch the invisible as well as thevisible portions ; then erase the former. By doingthus, you can readily get the visible lines in theirright places. See that your pupils do the erasingbefore they begin to line in. or they will make manymistakes, and waste much time with the rubber.
