5th Group.—Splitting Sticks.

Fir/s. 36ft and 36h. Geometrical Patterns. —In splitting the sticks, care is to be taken that the twig is divided into two parts as nearly as possible equal. As soon as we see that one part is thicker than the other, we press with the back of the knife against the thinner half. The rule then is: Always press the back of the blade outwards away from the half which begins to grow the thicker. Practise splitting. In order that the split pieces which are left after practice may not be wasted, they are nailed on to boards in various patterns. The boards so decorated will serve as stands for flower-pots. In 36« there are 9 squares. L. of outside edge 9. L. in 6 10.
