STATURE OF AMERICANS.
Surgeon In tho United states Army Says
tho Average IL OF Inches.

Surgeon In tho United States Army Says
tho Average IL OF Inches
In paper read by Maj. Henry s.
Kilbourne, surgeon OF the United
States army, before the Association Of
Military Surgeons OF the United States,
he advocated the theory that the phys
ical power Of race OF people, and
consequently their capacity for work,
is measured by their average stature.
For every inch Of height between
five and six feet the extreme breath
ing capacity is increased eight cubic
inches; the vital capacity being at its
maximum ct 30 years. A table OF
measurements OF 100, 62l native white
Americans, accepted for the military
service OF the United States. shows
that the number Of men below sixty
three inches In height, Is but little
greater than that OF the class above
seventy.three inches. The most nu-
merous class is included between sixty.
seven and siIty-nine inches, and this
standard class would have o greater
chest girth than the average.
The mean hight Of 125 United
States naval cadets above the age Of
20 years was 81. inches. As these
men arc drawn from all parts and
classes Of the United States, they
represent very nearly the typical phys
Zeal development Of the American PEG.
pie Of 20 years Of age.
Major Kilbourne concludes that the
commingling strainso OF Celtic, Danish,
Norwegian and German blood among
our people have thus far worked no
deterioration Of physical quality.
"Not so the swsrthy, low-browed and
stunted people now swaPming 10 our
shores. Absorbed into the body Of
the people, these mnltitudes must In
evitably evolve an inferiority OF type.
To realize the result Of such contin.
gency, let ii DO considered that the
loss OF an inch In stature might bring
In its train the loss OF national ascend
ency. Let US take care then that the
state shall! suffer no harm Boston
