A MISTAKEN PRACTICE.
Maps i'm School Rooms Should Be
Drawn to One Scale.

f. q. Consta BILE. in Nature, directs at
tention TO the serious disadvantages
of the common practice of hanging on
the walls of school no oms, maps of va
rious countries of widely differing
areas. all drawn to different scales.
with the result that the countries APP
pear. approximately. of the same size.
One of the direct consequences of this
custom is that comparatively few edu-
Gated persons can give the relative
sizes of. say, England and Africa. of
Canada. Australia and British India,
with any approach to accuracy. This
defect i'll geographical teaching is by
some teachers avoided by the use of
wall maps of the continents having
printed i'll the corner map of England
TO the same scale to serve as key. 1t
should not be difficult for teachers to
prevent their pupils from obtaining an
erroneous sense of proportion.
