legit l:.l Mathematics rUllathematics is a Universal Language Mathematics is one of the most important sub- jects in the curriculum of our se h o ols today. Down through all the ages it has stood as the subject best adapted to train the youth in the habits of expressing their thoughts accurately and concisely. Indeed, mathematical laws are so intelu woven in everyday life that we are usually uncon- scious of their existence. Our Mathematics Department has been planned to meet the requirements of the State University at Ann Arbor and other institutions of learning. The general requisite is one year of Algebra and one of Plane Geometry. Other requirements are three years, and in some special cases four, for example, to enter an engineering school one must have had the four-year course of Mathematics. We feel that being: a small school, we are particu- larly fortunate in having a four-yenr course in Mathematics. In the hrst year we offer Algebra, using as El jMHs-u; 2' text, Huwkes, Luby and Toutonis First Course in Algebra. In the tenth grade, tiA Laboratory Plane Geometry by Austin, is being used. This book is new and comparatively few schools are using it. It is outstanding because it is a step forward in the reorganization of high school mathematics. A u stin correlates Geometry and Geometrical Drawing. and by this plan teaches learning by doing. One-hulf 0f the Junior year we have Solid Geometry by Palmer Taylor and Furnum. in the other half-year we have Algebra '1. using Second Course in AlgebrzW by Hawkes, Iiuby and Touton. In the twelfth grade, we have 'ltrigononietry, using as a basic text itWentworth and Smith-Plune 'ilrigonometry. As yet we have no thoroughly organized Mathe- Inatics Club. However, in one of our classes we give one class period a month to :1 mathematical program. The purpose of this is to stimulate in- terest in the subject and also to become familiar with some of the great mathematicians of the past. Next year we hope to have an organized club tak- ing its members from the whole Mathematics De: partment. OLIVE MAXWELL.
