��It will be noticed that these series are quite uniform. Chil- dren are, as usual, a little more short-headed than adults. The variability for adults' alone has the extremely low value of ± 2.7 ; that of children is ± 3.3. The coefficient of correlation for Bolton's series of men is +0.36, for Shaw's series of men +0.41, for the total series of men -f- 0.38. In this also we have corrobora- tion of the accuracy of the head measurements. The coefficient of correlation is remarkably high — much higher than among the Sioux Indians.

The average values presented on pages 751,752, give us the following table of average indices:

��Index of finger-reach 104-3

Index of height of shoulder 83.0

Index of height of second finger. 38.4

��Women. lo 3-3 82.4 38.3
