1928

[...] The imputation of 'scarcely veiled hostility' to the Ameer by the Christian Marquis reminds one of the pretext of the muddied stream made use of by the wolf in his intetion of devouring the lamb. [...] In studying the racial anatomy of the nose it is not enough to rely on the relation of the length and the breadth of the nose the prominence or otherwise of the entire nasal skeleton has to be taken into account. [...] The average biorbito-nasal-index of the Nagar BrahMins is 116.7 but in the case of the Bengali Kayasthas the figure is not available but judging from that of the Cbandals of Bengal (one of the lowest classes of the population) which is 114.0 the value of this Index in the case of the Bengali Kayasthas could not be much different.
