BUSINESS BY Editor’s note: When you’re driving, biking or walking around in downtown Ukiah do you often look over at a storefront and say to yourself “Gee, I didn’t know that was there.” Well, so do we. So we thought we’d start a kind of business census by photographing and identifying downtown businesses block by block, week to week, here on the Commerce Page. It's nothing fancy, just a quick look at what’s there. Of course it will take us some time to go through State, School and Main streets and then up and down Perkins, Gobbi and other streets. And that's just within the city limits. But we figure, like painting the Golden Gate Bridge, when we’re done, we’ll just have to start over. We hope you’ll enjoy discovering what’s out there.

THE LEARNING CHALLENGER by Robert Barnett

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
