Ectomorphs are dominated by their large,
sensitive and active nervous system. They
are introverts and inhibit any outward feel
ings they might like to express. No bub-
bering or crying for them on leave-taking.
And no public kisses, or other outward DEM
onstrations of affection. for them If they can
help it.
The Ectomorph is sensitive to noise and
distractions. He Is unsocial and meets his
troubles in solitude by choice. He tends to
symbolic expression rather than by direct
action. He is tense and somewhat ascetic
and mystic in behavior.
In life the Ectomorph likes to work things
out for himself He makes good scientist.
In history the Ectomorph, as a type, has
been the greatest driving force of onward
civilization and culture He Is the clustered
scholar. However, it is often the Mesomorph
who must carry out the plans and ideals of
the Ectomorphs.
Few people are of any one Of these three
body types but are a combination Of all three
with perhaps one type predominating.
BY rating each of the three types by num-
bers from one to seven Dr. Sheldon can clas-
sfy any human figure.
According to DR.. Sheldon's classification,

In the same way the pure Mesomorph be-
comes a III type. And the true Ectomorph
is III type.
Dr. Shedon's system enables him to look
into the future and predict the body shape of
an individual as he or she grows older, too.
This fact might offer new hope for more
permanent marriages il the boy and girl who
want TO get married would have their physical
types classified before they took the jump
They would have some idea Of what their
mates would look like 10 or 20 years hence.
Many people have a rough and ready rule
which, in part, tries to do this same thing.
Many a romance has been broken because
some boy looked at his prospective mother
in-law and realized that his darling of the
moment was quite apt to fit this same
pattern later on.
sometimes it applies and sometimes it doesn't.
Accurate and scientific classification can do
a much better job.
The new studies of what kind OF a body
you possess are influencing many doctors and
health authorities. What kind of a diet you
ought to eat is just one example among many.
The fattish people, the Endomorphs need
much food bulk and roughage to accommodate
their large digestive system. The thin people,
the Ectomorphs, can get along on a light
diet although they eat often.
Ectomorphs and the Mesomorph type need
more meat and proteins for their high energy
output, which Is uncommon among the relaxa-
tion-loving Endomorphs. Endomorphs, too,
have an Unsuitable sweet tooth throughout life,
while the Ectomorphs lose their taste for
sweets shortly after adolescence.
DR.. Sheldon's work should be a boon to
every individual who wishes to recognize his
natural capabilities and make the most OF
them. If his work accompanies only one
thing-TEevents people from having the dis
appointment of being a square peg in round
hole-it will be a major contribution TO
human understanding and to progress.
