Abstract

It is curious how State lines mark differences in the U.S. There are no climatic differences between Kansas and Missouri, and small climatic differences between Kansas and Nebraska; yet the three States hold populations in which are marked differences-differences at least which Americans may distinguish. Doubtless to Chinamen all Americans look alike! But Americans know the differences between Americans North, East, South, and West and dwellers in a section know minor differences between persons living in neighboring States in the same section of the U.S. The larger sectional differences in Americans may be somewhat the result of climatic influences.
