The region at and above the eye brows is the center of the observation faculties. Located here are Individual ity, form, size, locality, color, order, and calculation. One with this region well developed has quickness of vision. He has good memory for faces, for color, order, and weight. He la the natural eye and ear student of life, and books rarely mean much to him unless the faculties are well devel oped In the upper forehead as well. Above the vision faculties Is the region of memdVy. But directly above memory Is the region of reason with the faculties of comparison and causality. Zj THINKER LOOKER \ {Or When the head Is well developed In the upper forehead such a student thinks out principles, definitions, reasons, causes, laws and solutions. If this region of the forehead at the side temples is well developed—constructiveness —he builds, Invents, and gives the world Ideas as well as new material things. The visual student often makes • good newspaper reporter or salesman, because he is quick and adaptable, but usually not a constructor or a philosopher. He may be found selling scientific Instruments, but he will not be found inventing them, His step is quicker than that of the reasoner and he likes to move about more.
