People's hands are composites of their entire personalities—their buried hopes and fears, their likes and dislikes, their passions and loves. In the lines and shapes of their hands are records of what people are and what they have the potential to be. . Thus says Josef Ranald in his book "How to Know People by Their Hands." For his compilation of hand analysis, Ranald has collected and studied more than 10,000 hand prints, and on the basis of prob ability has associated certain markings in the hand with char acteristics of men and women. 5 Hand Shapes Hands are divided roughly into five shapes. The conic hand, which is triangular in shape, broad at the base and tapering at the tip with rounded and some times pointed fingertips, is the hand of feeling and not of action. These people have quick mental ity, an enthusiastic responsive ness, but an interest which is short-lited. At worst they are talkative, witty, sometimes mali cious, and fickle both in love and friendships. At best, these people are appreciative audiences, enjoy ing and responding intuitively to beauty. Square Hands The square hand, in which the palm, fingers, tips and nails all have a squared-off, rectangular shape, is the practical, methodical hand. It usually indicates well planned success, although achieve ment is slow and comes through persistence. Such people are slightly formal, extremely honest, and capable of being either forceful executives or efficient subordinates. The hand denoting driving en ergy, restlessness, and mental and physical daring is the spatulate hand, or the hand having spready broad fingertips and fanlike palm. People with such hands have forceful personalities and tend to• accept others for what they are. They are extremely loyal in friendships, • but less so in love. Philosophic Hand The knotty hand, sometimes called the philosophic hand, has a bony structure with large joints, a ridged back and an irregular general outline. The ' fingertips are usually pointed or rounded. The pointed, or intuitive hand is long and narrow, with slender tapering fingers and long, oval, pointed nails. People with this type of hand possess intense emotionalism, and are usually without logic. ' how ever, they are compensated with a gift of some sixth sense of, -in tuition. Love of beauty and dis gust with ugliness are their- main characteristics. They live through their feelings, and their emotions swing from ecstasy when they are loved to despair when they feel lonely and useless. Once there was a Sophomore who was planning a Whale of a Weekend in New York. Being a Man of Foresight, he carefully packed his copy of "New York Confidential," his compilation of Terrific Manhattan Numbers, and his list of Solvent Alumni in the Big City. Likewise 1 clean. shirt, 1 toothbrush, 1 razor and 1 package of Sou-Sen. He was Ready. Just then his roommate came up with a Tip for the Traveler. "Hey," he said, "have you wired ahead for your Hotel Reservation?" Our Hero guffawed. "Don't be dull," he -answered. "I'll make up my mind where I want to stay when I get there. New York is Full of Hotels." He was right. New York is full of hotels. On this particular weekend, 105 So. Allen St. By PEGGY McCLAIN While these are the basic types of hands, few people possess any of them in their pure form. Rath er, most hands are a combined type, such as a square palm and oval fingers. The' fingers are instruments of the brain and are connected with it through tiny nerves. Each 'fin ger indicates specific talents oil failings. Fingers set close together indicate a formal, restrained, sus picious person by nature. Wide spaces show unconventionality and a free and easy trend. The thn m b has perhaps the most interesting influence on the hand analysis. It governs the gen eral qualities of will, appetite, and reason and will usually tell bg what use people put their gifts Low Thumb—High LQ. The lower the set of the thwaild on the side of the hand, the great er th e intelligence. A low-se4 thumb usually denotes a generous, independent and sympathetic per- son. A high-set thumb is usually found on persons of secretative, - cautious, and timid dispositions. Besides the above determinants such things as the fingernails, the type of skin on the hand, the mounts (or puffy cushions on the palm), and the lines on the pair play major roles in analyzing a hand. The members are inter-de pendent, and analysis must be made on a basis of dominant and over-all characteristics. While one part of the hand might show a particular trait, a second a n stronger member might show a contradictory trait which cancels out or modifies those character. istics appearing in weaker parts ADVENITUREahLztnI, SIMON!, OS Da" Ufa taa esparam sikosesezd 3 . 3 , 7 . / Bicycle, Faltboot, Ski.
