Disaster Greater than the Titanic On April 14, the Titanic collided with an iceberg and carried 1635 souls to death. The whole country is aroused, the press has given thousands of pages to the accident, the President and Congress talk of new laws looking toward greater safety for passengers on ocean-going vessels, and the public insistently demands these laws. Every day in the year preventable diseases in the United States carry 1640 souls to death. Why does not the appalling daily slaughter from unnecessary disease arouse as much consternation, and lead as speedily to effective remedial measures, as would the daily sinking of an ocean liner? It is because people need to be taught the facts regarding preventable diseases, their causes, and the methods of prevention. They need simple, clear explanations of underlying principles. World Book Company publishes several school books which give exactly this basis of knowledge of simple principles, in a style which has made them the most effective elementary school text books issued in the last five years.

The opinion is almost unanimous among teachers of secondary mathematics that the method commonly used at present is not thoroughly in harmony with recent advancement in educational standards. In Germany, France and England, radical changes have been made within recent years in favor of the "Unified Method" in mathematics instruction, and interest in the movement is spreading rapidly in America. Professor George W. Myers, of the University of Chicago, with the assistance of instructors in the University High School, has embodied the essential ideas of the new plan in the series, "Mathematics for Secondary Schools." The authors have devoted six years to the preparation of the work, and every statement, problem, and illustration has been repeatedly tested and rewritten with a view to the actual needs of the classroom.
