to be 80.3 (Majer and Kopernicki), while the immigrant Jew- 

 esses from that country have an index of 84.83 on the average ; 

 in Poland the cephalic index of the Jewesses in Warsaw meas- 

 ured by Elkind was 82.92, while those from this country who 

 emigrated to the United States, are seen to have an average 

 index of 81.77; i^ White-Russia, the Jewesses observed by 

 Yakowenko are more longheaded (81.24) than those who emi- 

 grated to the United States (83.23) ; and in Little-Russia, Weis- 

 senberg found the Jewesses with an average index of 82.4, and 

 Talko-Hryncewicz 83.0, almost the same as that in the immi- 

 grant Jewesses from that region of Russia — 82.22. It is thus 

 seen that with but one exception, the Polish Jewesses, the immi- 

 grant women are slightly more brachycephalic than those who 

 remain at home. This is confirmed by the figures in Table 

 XXXIII where it is seen that the proportion of dolichocepha- 

 lic Jewesses is considerably larger in those who were measured 

 in their native country than in the immigrants, excepting in 

 those coming from Little-Russia. The proportion of brachy- 

 cephalic among the immigrant Jewesses in each group bears no
