Euclid is dead. Long live geometry! This is the age when slogans and protests are a matter of record, and the miJitant attracts considerable attention. In somewhat similar fashion the teaching of geometry in the elementary school needs our attention. Geometry is probably the oldest of the mathematical disciplines and has undergone little change in the curriculum. There is a message for educators in this month's issue of The Arithmetic Teacher.

There are many suggestions for the classroom teacher and descriptions of activities that will make geometry Jive.
