CHAPTER

A Brief History of a Valley in Switzerland

The people live largely in a series of villages dotting the valley floor, along the river bank. All children are required to attend school six months of the year and to spend the other six months helping with farm work. The girls are also taught weaving, dyeing and garment making. In the winter, no trucks, nor even horses and wagons, let alone tractors, are available to bear the burdens up and down mountain slides. This is all done on human backs, for which the hearts of the people have been made especially strong. We are primarily concerned here with the quality of the teeth and the development of the faces that are associated with such splendid hearts and unusual physiques.
