Abstract
The article on the above subject in the October number of this journal presents one point of view quite forcibly. But is that the only point of view? I think that it is not. I wish to present another aspect of this matter by commenting upon certain sentences of the above article which appear in italics below. But before doing so it may be well to indicate my academic status. I have my doctorate in Mathematics. After many consecutive years of teaching calculus and various other branches of mathematics in a large eastern college, I am, by invitation, spending my accumulated years of leave of absence doing research work on the mathematics curriculum of the senior high schools of a large city, and at the same time carrying the full work of a regular teacher of mathematics in a coeducational senior high school. I teach nothing but plane and solid geometry.
