255.--THE LEVEL PUZZLE.

[Illustration]

This is a simple counting puzzle. In how many different ways can you

spell out the word LEVEL by placing the point of your pencil on an L and

then passing along the lines from letter to letter. You may go in any

direction, backwards or forwards. Of course you are not allowed to miss

letters--that is to say, if you come to a letter you must use it.
