          Appeal No. 96-0333                                                          
          Application 08/054,793                                                      


          founded.  Accordingly, we do not sustain this rejection.                    
               McCain discloses a method for producing printed articles               
          by applying a bead of glue along the length of each of a                    
          plurality of pre-printed webs moving in their longitudinal                  
          direction, such that each bead of glue is substantially midway              
          of the width of the respective web, forming the webs into a                 
          stack of webs having aligned glue beads, cutting the stack of               
          webs transverse to the glue line to form unfolded articles,                 
          and folding each article                                                    




          along its glue line (col. 12, lines 34-53; col. 13, lines 36-               
          46; col. 14, lines 22-61).  A cover may be applied to the                   
          articles (col. 12, lines 54-61).                                            
               Obergfell discloses a method for the adhesive fastening                
          of two members by ejecting an adhesive from a nozzle such that              
          the adhesive penetrates through one of the members and spreads              
          at the interface of the members (col. 1, lines 4-7 and 24-30).              
          Obergfell states (col. 1, lines 49-54) that the method "may be              
          useful for many purposes such as securing furring strips to                 
          concrete or block bases; securing dry wallboard or paneling                 
                                          4
