Excerpt from A Treatise on Architecture and Building Construction, Vol. 1: Prepared for Students of the International Correspondence Schools, Scranton, Pa;; Arithmetic; Formulas; Geometry and Mensuration; Architectural Engineering; With Practical Questions and Examples

In pointing of these figures, begin at the right-hand figure and count - units, tens, hundreds; the next group of three figures is thousands; therefore, we insert a comma before beginning with them. Beginning at the figure 5, we say thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and insert another comma. We next read millions, tens of mil lions, hundreds of millions (insert another comma), billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions.

The entire line of figures would be read: four hundred thirty-two billions one hundred ninety-eight millions seven hundred sixty five thousands four hundred thirty-two. When we thus read a line of figures it is called numeration, and if the numeration be changed back to figures, it is called notation.

Excerpt from A Treatise on Architecture and Building Construction, Vol. 1: Prepared for Students of the International Correspondence Schools, Scranton, Pa;; Arithmetic; Formulas; Geometry and Mensuration; Architectural Engineering; With Practical Questions and Examples

In the first six volumes of the eight volumes of this set are comprised all the Instruction and Question Papers used in our Complete Architectural Course; they form a thorough, progressive, and comprehensive treatise on the subject of Architecture.

While the individual Instruction Papers are not in themselves exhaustive in their treatment of the particular subjects named in their titles, yet they are so closely interrelated, one with another, that when they are joined together in one harmonious whole (as in these volumes), they constitute a treatise that is complete in all those details of design and construction that are likely to be met with in general architectural practice. The student can therefore use them as works of reference in connection with any of the numerous problems that so frequently arise in all branches of architectural work.

The method of numbering the pages, cuts, articles, etc. is such that each paper and part is complete in itself; hence, in order to make the indexes intelligible, it was necessary to give each paper, and part a number. This number is placed at the top of each page, on the headline, opposite the page number; and to distinguish it from the page number, it is preceded by the printer's section mark �.
