The data of Fig. 166 are shown by another method in Fig. 167. Though Fig. 167 appears to represent a solid model, there was in reality no solid model made in order to obtain this illustration. By using isometric paper a chart like Fig. 167 can be made with comparatively little work. Isometric paper has lines ruled on the paper right and left at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal. By selecting a vertical scale to portray by separate columns the number of girls represented in any square of Fig. 166, it becomes a comparatively simple matter to draw the illustration. The various necessary lines can be drawn free-*hand in pencil on top of the isometric co-ordinate ruling, until the chart is completed; then the various lines can be inked in to get the final effect seen in Fig. 167. The total number of girls represented in any column is shown by the figures at the top of the column.

Data of W. Garnett in the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, 1910
Fig. 167. Examination Marks Obtained by 9,396 School Girls in England
This illustration was made from the same data as Fig. 166. Here the number of girls in any square is shown
by the height of the vertical column drawn to scale.
The arrangement of scales here is different from that in Fig. 166 as will be noticed by observing the direction of the arrows
