July 30——(CP) — The Burden Mental Research Trust can now detect genius in millimetres. Experiments on 109 persons be- tween the ages of infancy and 30 years and comparisons between the. heads of 10,000 Australian children and ih:se or a smaller group of English children oi the same age were described by Dr. R.J.A. Berry in a recent issue or the "British Mozlical Journal." Results of these investigations are said to indicate the brain reaches rull adult dimensions between the ages of eight and 11, and does not grow thereafter. Mental deficiency, it is suggested. is due to the fact the brain does not grow but re- mains the size of an inia.nt's. The normal children, the propor- tion or brain size to head size is roughly assessed at two-thirds. the article says. The new method oi measuring brain size is by multi- plying together the figures (or length, breadth and height of the head and then taking the first three figures oi the calculation as the index product of brain size. Thus, as in a. normal adult, lithe length is l70.07 millimetres breadth 13392 and height 108.25 the sum is BADK Til THE LAND While larmins conditions have not been all that one would desire dull“! the Past few years, with the exception, of course, oi the past 1'9-U. there has been a considerable movement towards land settlement.

Moreover it is an occupation which rrdinarily enables one to live a use- ful. proiituble and enjoyable liie.
