Morgue subjects represent random samples in two small selected strata 

 of this composite population. Even though all European types origi- 

 nated primarilj' by tlie union of two divergent forms similar to the iSTordic 

 type of Denniker and the Primitive type herein described, yet the above 

 inferences need not be vitiated thereby because the types of Europe had 

 become distinct by isolation, etc., before penetrating the East, and all of 

 these may not have reached the Pacific in the successive waves of migra- 

 tion eastward.

The stature of the Students exceeds that of any other group, which 

 may be interpreted in terms of better nurture, or of mestizo blood, or of 

 both, probably the last. The stature of the Igorots is less than that of 

 any other group, and is probably due to the predominance of the Austral- 

 oid and Primitive types, although nurture may play a part. The Japa- 

 nese are taller than the Igorots, because they have a greater proportion of 

 European blood (Iberian, Alpine, etc.), for here nurture could hardly 

 exert a different influence on the two groups, although it may have. 

 The Malecon Morgue group has a greater stature than the Igorots for the 

 same reason. They are undoubtedly a poorly nourished group, yet their 

 nurture has not reduced the stature to that of the Igorots. Generaliza- 

 tions such as those just given may not be justified when so few individuals 

 are under consideration, but the indications point strongly to the infer- 

 ences stated.
