OUR st. {SE oF SPACE
Experiments With tants to Show
That It Is Innate.
There are many optical illusions
which show that our perception of dis-
tance, height and space are acquired
rather than instinetive, und in the do-
main of psychologienl physiology one
of the standing controversies touches
this point. The German school of
Leipzig is inclined to affirm that all
our perceptions of distance, area and
solidity and our ability to distinguish
between right and left, up and down,
before and behind, are acquired as a
result of long practice and experience,
A person blind from birth who
has learned to distinguish triangles,
squares, circles and objects of other
forms by touch is not able immediate-
ly after the acquisition of sight to |
distingulsh these familiar objects by |
sight alone, He or she is still com- |
pelled to rely on feeling. In the be- |
ginning all objects appear to such a |
person (and perhaps they do so in the
case of bables) as shapeless, tremulous |
spots of color situated close to the
eye.

It is happily seldom that the revenge
