Samoan babies can give points to
Europeans apparently. According to
A. S. Middleton In "Sailor and Keach-
comber." they are much prettier and
very Intelligent. Moreover:
They can swim at three months oNl;
talk, run and sing at a year old, and if
a Samoan had a child that sucked a
dummy (presumably a comforter) at
six years old and walled driveling
along In Its pram at an advanced age,
as the children of the wealthy class of
England do, they would look upon tt
as a great curio and smother it for

Irving mentions the typical figure as a
