HAND AND BRAIN CONNECTED
Ambldexterlty, the Fad a Short Time
Ago, Has Really Little to Rec
ommend II.

There was fad some twenty years
ago among certain classes to make
the children use both hands equally,
with a view to developing ambidex-
terity. There were very few success
full results; on the contrary, the chill
dren that used only one hand seemed
to get along better in every way, es-
pecially in intellectual development.
The explanation for this is found In
the fact that the control Of the hand
is intimately connected with the de-
velopment of language. but the BRAIN
centers that have to do with Ian
guage are situated on the left side
that is, In connection with the centers
that control the right arm and hand.
An examination of thousands OF
human skeletons showed that in every
case IN which the right arm had q
greater development than the left
arm there was q corresponding de-
velopment on the left side OF the
skull. Left-handed persons would
accordingly be expected to have less
language ability, on the whole, than
right-handed persons; and children
that used both hands indifferently,
under compulsion. would hinder still
more the development Of their ability
In the use Of language.
In the German army Doctor Bardle-
ben found 3.sS per cent. Of left-hand-
edness. This figure is to be consid-
cred as rather lower than the true
ratio, as many lefthanded men deny
or fail to report the fact. In north
eastern parts Of Germany left-handed-
ness is less frequent than in the
central parts. 1t is curious that
among the monkeys the orang-outang
and the hylobstes are right-handed,
while the gorilla and the chimpanzee
are left-handed.

Raindrops coming down for q scamper
and patter on the earth, but the rea-
son they weren't so glad yesterday was
because 1t was the Fairy Ybab's
Birthday and they were all giving her
party.
THAT was why they had ice cream
and cakes Of all sizes and kinds-and
one more thing which haven't told
you about was the great huge Birth
day cake they had in her honor.
"You see the Fairy Ybab leads the
Fairies orchestra and she loves music
above all things. Her hair is very
long and soft and black and on her
head she wears silver crown. Her
wand is Of silver with silver stars and
she waves 1t about when she keeps
time for the Fairies who are playing
In her orchestra.
AS she gives the music to Fairyland
the Fairies wanted to give her an es-
pecially fine Birthday party. They
were all there, dressed in their best,
and when the Raindrops came down
the Fairies all began to feel very sad.
"'But we had to come said the
Raindrops.
'Why?' asked the little Fairies.
Fancy Ybab was the only fairy who
seemed to understand until the Rain
drops said.
why, don't you know that long
ago we were told to beat the drums
for Ybab.s music. That's why we've
come to her party. We beat time very
gently when we want to and very

to have after the Birthday cake And

He purposes to utilize this by freezing
