analysis shows the same restricted nature of the distribution in the girl popu- 
lation. Wigtown is the only portion of Galloway with excess. The extreme 
north of Ayrshire (and not the south as among </), and an isolated portion on 
the Moray Firth (Dornoch and Tain) are also dark-haired districts. Dundee, 
Edinburgh and Aberdeen show among the girls a slight excess of dark hair, 
Dundee being the most marked. Summing up the results for this class, it is found 
that the Highlands, Galloway and the city of Glasgow are the popidations which 
show significant excess of dark hair. There is therefore clearly a sharp distinction 
geographically, and, as will be shown later, racially in the distribution of this class 
of hair colour. The east, excepting the slight excesses in Edinbui'gh and Aberdeen 
cities ( ? ), a small portion of the coast-line north of Montrose and Donside ((/) 
is characterised by a significant defect in the expected proportion of dark hair 
compared with what would occur on an even distribution of that class throughout 
the whole country.
