How to read the scale diagrams?

The six horizontal lines represent the strings. The first string (highest tone) is on top and the sixth string (lowest tone) is at the bottom. The vertical lines represent the frets. The numbers below the diagram indicate which finger to use on each fret (1 is the index finger).
