Excerpt from Geometrical Drawing and Design
A course of geometrical drawing or practical geometry pro vides a valuable preliminary training for so many handicrafts and professions that it must be regarded as essential to all students whose work is to be adapted to modern requirements. The Engineer, the Architect, the Soldier, and the Statistician, all have recourse to the assistance of practical geometry to solve their problems or to explain their methods. Every day the graphic treatment Of subjects is finding its application in new directions; and to be able to delineate the proportions of any scheme places in the hand an invaluable tool for the execution of work of practical value.
