Handicrafts 207 D almost must be an equilateral triangle; therefore, accord- ing to arithmetic, the line D H must be seven eighths of A G, which can of course be easily measured. To Measure Distance Between Two Objects at a Distance Cut three poles six, eight, and ten feet long and peg them together in a triangle. A B C is a right angle according to. the laws of mathematics if the legs of the triangle are six, eight, and ten. Place the right angle on the shore, the side O The GM ccc c cece e cece seen Tite ——— —— ls =Ss - A B pointing to the inner side of the first object D (say a tree), and the side B C as nearly as possible parallel with the line between the two trees. Put in a stake at B, another at C, and continue this line toward K. Now slide the tri- angle along this till the side G F points to E, and the side H G is in line with C B. The distance from D to E, of course, is equal to B G. See “Two Little Savages,” 1903. The Indoor Council Ring Wall Hangings Most of our Councils will be indoors. In the next article I give directions for turning a grocery box into a successful Council seat. Three other important things will complete the possibility of Woodcraft at- mosphere:
