200 Pigmentation Survey of School Children in Scotland 
It may be of interest to point out that Tschepourkowsky has determined the 
mean resemblance between man and woman to be about '8, the characters studied 
interraciall}' being stature, relative arm length, cephalic index and four other 
measurable characters*. 
(11) The Colour Characteristics of the Population of Greater Glasgow and 
Environs. 
I. Introductory. — Tables of classified data. The city of Glasgow deserves 
special investigation for many reasons. (1) By far the largest in Scotland, 
the second city of the Empire contains one-fifth of the total population of the 
country. (2) Glasgow and the immediately adjacent counties, that is, Lanark, 
Renfrew, Ayr, Dumbarton and Stirling, contain one-half of the whole Scottish 
population. (3) Not only are these counties the most densely populated ones, but 
Glasgow itself greatly exceeds any Scottish town in the density of its population. 
(See Table Llll.) (4) The Census shows it to contain a much larger proportion 
of foreigners than any other town in Scotland. The Gaelic speaking population 
owing to its proximity to the Highlands is well represented. Ireland is also 
well represented. (5) Finally, it has been shown from the results of the present 
analysis that the great western city diverges in an extreme degree from the rest 
of Scotland not only in the distribution of hair colour of its school population but 
also in the distribution of eye colour, both for boys and girls. 
The following table (Table XLV.) shows the observed and expected results for 
Glasgow and Govan and Glasgow proper, the expected results meaning of course 
those which would occur on an even distribution with respect to colour of the 
whole of the school children throughout Scotland.
