Thirty-two per cent, or almost a third
of the German youth, are blondes; IA
per cent. are brunettes; while all the
rest, 81 per cent, must be classed as
mixed, This mixture is not a homoge-
ecu one, but includes all intermediate
varieties. One class of the German pop
ulation forms a decided exception to
these averages, viz, the Jews. Jewish
children show only II per cent. OF
blondes, but AZ per cent. of bru-
nettes. Their greater purity of race is
shown by the small ratio of the mixed
class amongst them. The blonde
type is particularly prevalent in Olden-
burg and the neighboring more northerly
communities; it is rarest in eastern Ba-
varia and Alsace.
A canton (Wildeshausen) in Oldenburg
has SO per cent. of its population blondes,
while Roding, a town in the second
group, has only 0 per cent, a difference
of A per cent. The former has only four
brunettes to each 100 Inhabitants, while
a southern town in Alsace has as many
as thirty-one to every 100. The distribu.
ton Of the blonde type is much wider
than that Of the brunette type. which IL
only a secondary type. A canton in
Wmtemberg shows the largest ratio OF
the mixed class, go per cent, while Pom
erania shows the smallest, 40 per cent.
The same contrast between the north and
south Is shown in Belgium and in Swift
zerland. In southern Austria the bru.
nette type is especially marked, but
