Why Are We Right-Handded ?

who prefers to use its left hand for hold

Hence, observation-disclosures arose. and was

Moreover, When men first fought TO-

have found that it was most convenient
to handle, their weapons in a uniform
way. If some in fighting company
were right-handed and others were left
handed, their weapons would be continu-
ally clashing. Whether drilling. or fight
