Excerpt from Solid Geometry
II. Practicality. - 1. Geometry is humanized by usmg as exercises a large number of practical problems. This phase of geometry, which was first introduced into American schools by the stone-millis text, is now universally recognized as an integral part of the subject. The stone-millis geometry contains a very large number and a very great variety of simple and genu ine practical problems. They are selected from many fields of human activity, such as home life, art, architecture, astronomy, engineering, designing, navigation, science, the construction and use of implements and machinery, etc.

Excerpt from Solid Geometry
The stone-millis geometry - plane, solid, and plane and solid - published in 1910, was a pioneer in its field, being the first of the group of American textbooks on geometry which in recent years have attempted in various ways to make the teaching of geometry conform to modern thought in education. It marked a wide departure from the traditional Greek geometry after which textbooks for secondary schools had for generations been patterned. This text has met with remarkable success. The educational ideals which it embodied are now recognized as national, and are summarized in the report OF the national committee OF fifteen on the teaching of geometry.
