Excerpt from Junior High School Mathematics, Vol. 2: Book II This book is intended to meet this demand for the second year of the introductory course. Algebra furnishes the material for the first half of the book, the second half being devoted to those topics of business arith metic which are appropriate to the student's maturity. The work in Book I has already shown the use of the formula in algebra and has furnished a large amount of material to which the formula can now properly be still further related. It is therefore natural to place algebra in the first half year and to make free use of it in the arithmetic that follows, unless the courses are carried along parallel to each other.
