entitled Mathematics in the Public !
and Private Secondary Schools Of the
United States,'' and considers the |
ability OF the boga and girls as shown
only IN the type Of school indicated
By the title.
II seems TO be the general opinion
that the average boy shows more
ability In mathematics than the
average girl, but also that he does
not work SO faithfully. It is declared
that in mixed class this greater abil-
ity OF the boy and the greater faithful
ness Of the girl react most advantage
ousIy on each other.
Another fact that is noted Is this:
In elementary algebra the girl does
as good work as the boy; in geometry
not nearly go good. In advanced al
zebra and trigonometry, the boy
shows an ability which is far ahead
: Of the girl. Yet, We are free to con-
fess that his greater natural ability
Ia often outclassed by the steady, pa
tient endeayor Of the girl Perhaps 1t
would be safer TO say that the girl
does not show as great an ability as
: the boy, even though she may have
it,
In regard to the relative tendency
OF boys and girls TO choose elective

to questicnniare indicate that boys
