They can no more help being rovers than one can help having red hair. What has to be done is to make the best of them in boy scouts to begin with, perhaps, as ex- plorers, King's messengers, missionaries, and the like later on. To try to make them elders of the Church is to court disaster.
From 89 family histories not selected Dr. Daven- port has given substantial backing of fact to his inter- esting thesis that there are in our natural inheritance" two unit factors one which he calls excitabil
...ity, its absence spelling placidity, the other which he calls cheerfulness, its absence spelling depression. With THE INFLUENCES OF NURTURE 115 rare exceptions the offspring of two excitable parents are excitable; out of 133 such offspring, only 6 grew up to be well-balanced, quiet, placid, sensible people. The excitable types correspond to the old ' nervous ' types: active, energetic, irritable, am- bitious, given to planning, optimistic, talkative, and jolly. An extreme of this is the old ' choleric ' type: overactive, fussy, shifting from one thing to another, usually hilarious, passionate, ) even vio- lent.
