ncide with the laps on the box. Dovetail the partitions by cutting a slit one inch deep in the center of each and slipping one over the other. Next glue them to the inside of the box. _Cover._ Take the second 8x9-inch rectangle and mark off a two-inch space (shy) all around. Find middle of nine-inch edges and draw lines 1-2, 2-3, and 2-4. Cut out these two triangles. Cut the corners on the dotted lines. Score, fold, and glue. Notice that in the lids the laps are not turned as in the body of the box. Here, as in the drawer of the pencil-box, the laps are glued to the ends of the cover, concentrating strength there and producing symmetry in construction. 8 Picture Frame No. I--Diagonal Folds _Material_--Construction paper, 5x5 inches. (See page 39.) Fold on the diagonals. Bring each corner over until it touches the center; crease. Fold each corner back again until its point touches the outside edge at the middle section; crease. [Illustration: SEED BOX WITH SECTIONS--(For description see page 37.)] 9 Picture Frame No. II _Material_--Construction paper, 4-1/2x16-1/2 inches. (See page 40.) Divide the length into three equal parts, making three rectangles 4-1/2x5-1/2 inches in size. In the middle rectangle, measure off and cut out a rectangle 2-1/4x3 inches in size. Fold rectangle No. 3 up and back of rectangle No. 2. Holding the two firmly together, punch two holes, one-fourth inch apart, on each side, and one-fourth inch from the outer edges (see diagram). Draw a piece of raffia or ribbon through these holes and tie in a bow. Fold back rectangle No. 1 for support.

(See page 41.) Fold edge No. 1 over and even with edge No. 2. Crease and fold. On each side of A mark and cut off one-half inch. Clip off the corners of the flaps on B. Fold the flaps of B over on A and paste. Find the middle of edges 1 and 2. With a radius of one inch, describe a semicircle and cut it out. [Illustration: PORTFOLIO--(For description see page 40.)] 11 Barn--House--Furniture _Material_--Construction paper, 8x8 inches or 10x10 inches. (See page 42.)
