Man Far Outnumbered
by Lesser Creatures
It 1« probable that few persons
aave ualurallsta ever consider the
enormous amount of life other than
human which exists In any locality,
civilized or not, densely peopled or
thinly settled. A plague of ruts in
London within receut years prompt
ed an Interview with a distinguished
scientist, who estimated that within
the area ot Greater London there
were 2U.UUU,UUU rats, more thau
Hire« times as many rats us peo­
ple.
Sparrows undoubtedly come neit
in point ot numbers among l.ou
dou's warm-blooded population, but
ti e scientist preferred to make his
estimate cover ull the birds ot the
I’nited Kingdom. He believed that
the bird population would average
800 to the square mile. That would
give a total of nearly 97.1KJU.U<A).
Thus the bird population outnutu
i-ered the human by something like
two to one.
As tor the Insect population, that
is quite beyond any statistician.
But
allowing
that
each
bird
cits only 5u Insects a day, British
birds would consume more than a
billion Insects in a year. Yet such
un estimate seems quite futile
when we consider that the insect
population of a single cherry tree
infested with aphides was estimated
:

Law of Gravity Not
an Obstacle to Incas
The ancient Inca fortress of
Sacsahuuman is located on a moun­
tain summit 704 feet above the city
of Cuzco, Peru, which is in Itself
lUmUU feet above sea level.
It la
made of huge, massive stones, some
of which measure 30 by 12 feet, and
are very thick.
Though irregular
in outline, they are titted together
so perfectly that a knife blade can
not be inserted between them.
How the seemingly impossible
feat of getting these stones to the
summit was achieved is explained
by the mystics of India. The Egyp­
tians who built the pyramids, so the
legend goes, and the ancient Incas,
both knew how to suspend the law
of gravity, having learned it from
ihe mystics of the lost Atlantis.

Variation of ''Quoit»”
The game of horseshoes Is
based ou quoits, which is a pastime
resembling the ancient discus­
throwing of Greece.
Few traces
of a game resembling quoits can
be found on the continent of Eu­
rope and Its origin may be sought
for on the borderland of Scotland
and England.
There are refer­
ences to it in the Midlands, dat­
ing from the beginning of the Fif­
teenth century.
Ascham. in his
Toxophllus (1&45). refers to the
game as being played chiefly by
the working classes, who often
used
horseshoes
for want of
quoits, a custom still prevailing in
country districts.

Determining Mental Age
Mental age Is most accurately
bused ui>on the individual Terrnau-
Blnet test of intelligence. A child
Is said to have a mental age of ten
years, for example, when lie passes
the tests on the Termayi-Binet
scale which, it has beeu found,
are passed by a majority ot nor­
mal ten-year-old children.
Ter­
man defines mental age as follows:
"By a given mental age we mean
that degree of general mental abil­
ity as is possessed by the average
child of corresponding chronolog­
ical age.”
