but a manifestation of an innate
ronae of apace ?— London Poet.
1 Bhew That It 1« IniiaU. 4 $
There, are many optical illusions
which ahov that' oar perception of
distance, height and apace are ac­
quired rather than instinctive, and
in the domain of psychological
physiology one of the startling con-
troversies touches this point. The
German school of Leipzig is inclin­
ed to affirm that all our perceptions
of distance, area and solidity and
our ability to distinguish between
right and left, np and down, before
and behind, are acquired as a re­
sult o f long practioa and experience.
A person blind from birth who
has learned to distinguish triangles,
squares, circles and objects of other
forma by tqucb is not able immedi­
ately after the acquisition of sight
to distinguish these familiar objects
by light alone. He or she is still
compelled to rely on fepling. In
the beginning all objects appear to
such a person (and perhaps they do
•o in the case of babies) as shape­
less, tremulous spots o f color situat­
ed close to the eye.
In the course of the debate that
raged some years age in Germany
some experiments were made with
babies. It appeared that in babies
what-must be described for want of
a better term as a sense of space
seems to exist. The infant was held
in the arms of the experimenters
for about-a minute, at the end of
which interval the child was per­
mitted to drop upon its bed. In
every instance the child exhibited a
dread or panic when it felt the anna
o f the persons holding it relax.
The babe, even at the age o f one
month, seemed to understand that
Its support was departing, ft held,
or, rather, clutched, at anything it
could reach, whether the arm, neck
or collar o f the peraon holding i t
From these experiments it has
been inferred that there must exist
a sense of space almost from in­
fancy. What is the dreed of falling
