remember il was held almost as an axiom
that girls could rot understand the sub
tletiee Of mathematics. and very ~
were brave enough TO take the negatlyb

their studies than their brothers. blt co.'s
was doubtless due 10 the fact that gil:
deal less care was devoted 10 their IL
strUction than nowadays
