ferring it to the stock, and proving the accuracy of the operation by measuring with the rule.
After making these pieces to the respective dimensions comes the operation of combining these to agree with the draw- ing; here is an appeal to the constructive or order element in the brain, and to the finer muscular combinations. The tool proc- esses are first to secure with brads one of the long slats to the Ux piece at a distance of one and one-half inches from the end, having the end of the short piece even with the edge of the slat. This operation is repeated until each end of the two out- side slats is secured. Next, the inner two must be equally spaced between the two outside slats, keeping the ends on a line.
If the foregoing operations have been well performed, we have a neatly constructed model called a "flower-pot stand," in the making of which we have through tool performances developed mental and muscular quickening.
