, those with no hair on pubis 0.4 per cent. This
corresponds with the fact that hair appears first on the pubis
and last on the chin.
In the first class 69 per cent, were beardless, 54 per cent,
without any axillary hair and 6 per cent, without pubic hair. In
the second class 24 per cent, were beardless, 17 per cent,
without axillary hair. In the third class 3 per cent, were
beardless and 3 per cent without axillary hair.
Below puberty the diameter of testicles is below 14 millimeters.
There were 13 conscripts having a testicular diameter of less
than 14 millimeters. These infantile individuals all belonged to
the first three classes and mostly to the first. The average
testicular diameter in the first class was nearly 24 millimeters,
and progressively rose in the succeeding classes to over 26
millimeters in the fourth.
While there was not much difference in height, the first class
was the shortest, the fourth the tallest. The fourth class also
showed the greatest chest perimeter. The cephalic index of all
classes was 84. (O. Ammon, "L'Infantilisme et le Feminisme au
Conseil de Revision," _L'Anthropologie_, May-June, 1896.
