We've saved mathematics un til now, because for many stu dents it's the toughest subject in school. The feeling seems to be that anybody can learn to pass English or history, but that you have to be especially suit ed for mathematics, that you have to have a special kind of mind. This is not true. Vou don't have to be special to get through the average math course. If you're having trouble, chances are you're studying the wrong way. Which brings up the question: What, is mathe matics? What does it try to do? Mathematics is a logical, con tentless, but often very mean ingful system of thought. Let's lake a simple example: 2 plus 2 equals 4. That is always cor rect, but do you know why? Two plus 2 equals 4 because mathematicians say so! In other words, mathemati cians have defined "2 plus 2" as "4." That's why they can't "Better Grades" Reader Service co Herald and News Box 941 Klamath Falls, Oregon Please send me copies of 30 DAYS TO BETTER GRADES at $1 each. Name Address City State HOUR SALE Here We (o NO ONE No be wrong; there's nothing to be wrong about. So actually, the statement "2 plus 2 equals 4" says about as much as tlie state ment, "a big book is a big book." We can say, then, that math ematics is contcntless. But once we have these always-correct, contentless, laws, we can apply them to our daily lives and oft en we find them very useful and meaningful. Nobody will argue that addition isn't useful and meaningful. It's easy to see that mathe matics is logical. If we say that 1 plus 1 equals 2 and 2 plus 2 equals 4, we have no choice but to say that 1 plus 1 plus 1 plus 1 equals 4. There's no other way to do it. Any other way would be illogical. And mathe matics insist on logic. Essentially, then, mathemat ics is simply a set of symbols that somebody (centuries of mathematicians actually! invent ed. They also invented certain rules for manipulating these symbols. As long as you follow these rules, you can't do any thing wrong. If you follow the ER BUSH'S Go Again! Sunday 12-Hr.

By itself, mathematics has nothing to do with reality. Its usefulness comes from the fact that we can think about tlie real world in a mathematical way and thereby understand it bet ter. Obviously, you wouldn't try to overview a math book. It doesn't work. To learn the rules of mathematics, you have to go step by step. You have lo "read between the commas." You'll find that every rule in math is based on the one that directly preceded it. If you don't under stand something, you can't hope that it'll come clear later on. You must understand each step before you can understand the next step. Take each page as it comes. Work through the page point by point. Work through any examples. You'll get into the swing of it easily. The most complex mathematical laws are only repeated applications of the simplest laws.
