Figure 3 is a fragmentary enlarged perspective of one end of the ruler.
Referring to the drawing the improved ruler comprises a main body part 1 provided on one edge with a straight metallic strip 2 for drawing straight lines and also provided with the usual transverse measuring indicia 3, here 1928. Serial No. 270,611. t
An improved ruler having one edge provided with uniform notches and having transverse unit indicia lines and having a plurality of longitudinally aligned holes of rectangular .shape each of unit length and arranged to extend between alternate pairs of indicia lines, said holes being uniformly spaced apart and spaced from said notches and positioned in predetermined relationship to the said notches whereby the units are emphasized and one to three arallel broken lines vmay be drafted as desired.

These rectangular holes 7, it will be observed, provide four points each spaced with respect to both the notchesand the indicla, thus providing a choice of four positions withrespect to each hole forpplacing a dot and two means in connection with each hole for drawing a short line.l Preferably the hole 7 will be connected by a longitudinally extending groove 8 which functions similarly
