Explain the definition which Galton gave of the subject and tell them this so as to disabuse their minds of any ridiculous ideas they might possibly entertain. Then you can show them the copy of the magazine which you have with you and this will help them to make up their minds also. Be sure to emphasize the fact that it is written in popular language and not in scientific language and that it is the only magazine of its kind in the world.)
