Education affects character to a supreme degree, as it opens the mind to the knowledge of all things known and gives to youth an outlook upon life which those who fail to obtain the blessings of mental training do not possess.

In planning an educational career, natural aptitudes should be especially considered.

As characterology will give young men at the outset of their careers an accurate knowledge of human nature, and as they will thus possess a distinct advantage through life over all competitors, it should be regarded as the most important study in the curriculums of institutions of learning.

Precocity suggests that the brain may be in a state of mental excitement bordering upon collapse. The minds of precocious children should be allowed to mature before they are permitted to undertake serious mental work, and consequently, prodigies should not be encouraged but held back, or unusual ability is apt to leave them early in life and life itself will be brief. There is a saying that "those who are men among buys are apt to be boys among men.": The precocious resemble plants which grow rapidly and wither as quickly.

In viewing the "Rogues' Gallery" at one of the great American penitentiaries, it was apparent to the author that many criminals are so repulsive in appearance on account of their abnormal, subnormal, or degenerate features, that they could with but difficulty obtain honest employment, and accordingly they follow the only other path open, that of dishonesty. They have to choose between starvation or crime, the latter leading to jail.

Although criminals do not invariably exhibit conspicuous signs of their calling, a selection of some of the following physical characteristics are usual with them:

1. Small brains.
2. Low, concave foreheads.
3. Narrow foreheads.
4. Large, staring eyes
5. Small eyes close together.
6. Piercing, dull, shifty, slanting or squint eyes.
7. Bloodshot eyes.
8. Eyes which are unmated as to color, size or height.
9. Shaggy eyebrows.
10. Crooked noses.
11. Small snub noses.
12. Crooked mouths.
13. Thick lips or lipless mouths.
14. Ears with jagged edges.
15. Ears without lobes.
16. Ears without convolutions.
17. Heavy and broad lower jaws.
18. Lean, haggard faces.
19. High cheek bones.
20. Extreme pallor of skin.
21. Coarse skin.
22. Coarse hair.
23. Abundant frckles.
24. Long arms
25. Broad, hard palms.
26. Strong, stubby fingers.
27. Heavy, large bones.
28. Bent posture and a slouching gait.
29. The postero-lateral district proportionally much broader than the antero-lateral.

The question is often asked, "Can a characterologist discover whether a man is honest or dishonest?" Unless the antero-superior district of the brain, which betokens morality and trustworthiness, or the antero-lateral, which indicates reason and caution, is well developed and therefore iin control, numerous signs of shrewdness, of over-vaulting ambition and force suggest dishonesty. People who are repulsive to look upon are often untrustworthy. Their looks preclude honest endeavor.

CHARACTEROLOGY REVEALS DISHONEST TENDENCIES

One must not imagine that through a knowledge of characterology it will be possible to entirely avoid dealing with the unworthy, for they are on every hand, and in all trades and walks in life, and consequently transactions with them are frequently necessaryl but expert knowledge of character analysis, however, one can usually discover the trend of a man's mind and thus avoid being defrauded.

The translation of motives requires psychological acumen.

Maladies and delusions, such as are usual with the insane, are the result of over-developed or under-developed encephalic districts, or are caused by pressure of the skull upon some portion of the brain; consquestly, knowledge of the traits which pertain to the various cerebral districts, which in excess or deficiency may accompany mental disability or even insanity, cannot fail to be of interest to the alienist. If a physician observe that a patient is suffering from undue excitement or extreme depression in regard to religious matters, he should note the relative development of the antero-superior and coronal areas, as they refer when prominent to religious tendencies, and likewise inquire if the subject has at any time received a blow, or an injury to those portions of the brain.

In the case of uncertainty, a careful examination of the cranium should be made, as a scar might thus be revealed which was the result of some forgotten accident. In case the subject is given to undue worry regarding offspring, rel or imaginary, the postero-central district should be scrutinized, for when highly developed it betokens love of children. If he is uncontrollably aggressive, the postero-lateral region which refers to this trait should be examined.

If a subject is absurdly conceited and obstinate, the degree of development or possible damage to the supero-posterior district, which indicates self-esteem, might account for the trouble.

When the spirit is operating through a diseased brain, as is the case with the insane, it is not th emind which is deranged, but it is owing to disorganization of the instrument, the brain, that the mind is prevented from operating rationally.

Many people, although not actually insane are mentally defective, and such a condition usually harmonizes with and is evidenced by facial or cranial contour or by expression of countenance.

Conceit, when strongly marked, is written in unmistakable signs over the entire countenance. It is evident in the walk, in gesture, speech, laughter, glance fo the eye, in costume, and in every imaginable way.

It is strange that individuals who have the least to be conceited about are usually the most conceited, while those who possess true greatness or marked ability are modest in mind and deportment. As ability decreases conceit increases.

Self-esteem, but not to the extent of conceit, should be possessed by all men, for he who does not believe in himself will find no one to believe in him.

Wit is the kernel of wisdom.

Wit, like a sharp knife, goes to the core of matters. It is brief, pointed and excoriating.
 

Humor should not be mistaken for wit.

A memorizing brain may appreciate and repeat humorous andecdotes, but it is not in itself witty, for owing to a high development of memory, originality of thought upon which the production of wit depends is absent.
 

Wit evidences subtlety of brain, and consequently it is almost invariably an asset of the genius. The American Indian seldom laughs or smiles and he has been rightfully called the most stolid of human beings, and this is accounted for by the formation of his brain, which is contracted in every dimension. His features, which are massive and strong, manifest aggressive force but not intellectuality.

A serious character is signified when the eyebrows, the eyelids, the sides of the mouth and the tip of the nose slant downward.
 

The following signs refer to wit:

1. A large super-active brain.
2. Broad forehead, slightly receding.
3. Short face.
4. Short, tip-tilted nose.
5. Mouth large with medium full lips.
6. Eyes small and partially closed.
7. Eyebrows of medium height.
8. Eyes and mouth which turn upward at sides.
9. Wrinkles which radiate from the sides of the eyes.
10. Prominent perceptives.
11. Chin somewhat receeding.
12. Medium complexion, hair and eyes
13. Physique of medium height and broad.
14. The choleric temperament.
15. Few signs of memory.

One who is witty reasons quickly. Children as they have developed reasoning powers to but a slight extent are frequently humorous but seldom witty. Humor subsists upon wit borrowed or original. Humor plus reasoning capacity develops wit.
 

The following signs imply lack of wit:

1. Small or narrow head.
2. High contracted forehead.
3. Large, wide open eyes.
4. High, arched eyebrows.
5. Long, narrow nose.
6. Small mouth with thin, tightly closed lips.
7. Eyes, eyebrows and mouth which slant downward at sides.
8. Long, prominent chin.
9. Brunet Complexion, hair and eyes.
10. Tell, slender physique.
11. Phlegmatic and melancholic temperaments.
12. Multiple signs of memory.
13. Deliberate speech and action.

UNESCO's Director-General highlights key role of education in poverty eradication October 17, 2003 - Poverty presents a threat to world security that affects each and every one of us, says the Director-General of UNESCO, Koïchiro Matsuura in his message on the occasion of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. Some three billion women and men live on less than two dollars a day. Eight million children die each year as a result of poverty. But poverty is not inevitable, Mr Matsuura added. More

Характерология - направление в немецкой психологии 20 века, трактующее человеческую индивидуальность как душевно-телесную целостность, первичную по отношению к миру, в котором она живет, и определяемую в своем поведении изначально присущими ей свойствами.
