Excerpt from Method in Geometry

Most studies are taught for two purposes (i) for the facts which may be of practical value in daily life, or that one needs in order to be really intelli gent; (2) for the mental discipline to be obtained from acquiring these facts. In the broad sense this is true of geometry; the practical side of geometry, however, i'.a. The measurement of surfaces and volumes, is usually taken up in arithmetic under the head of Mensuration, before the formal study of geometry is begun.
