However, if chest girths are not available the ratio weight+ stature2 is used as an index of build. If a lot of adult males be measured it is found that the distribution of the indices of build is as indicated in figure 1. In any polygon of distribution of adult build there are always present two peaks, one of which lies slightly below and the other somewhat above the mean build. The mean build changes in the male from birth to maturity as indicated in figure 2. The relative chest girth at birth is 67%; falls to 47% at 13 years and rises to 52% at 22 years and probably continues to
