Physical Assets His great endurance, capacity for withstanding hardship, indifference to weather, and his sane, under-eating habits are the chief physical assets of this type. Physical Liabilities This type has no physical characteristics which can be called liabilities except the tendency to chronic diseases. Even in this he runs true to form--slow to acquire and slow to cure. His Favorite Sports Hiking and golf are the favorite sports of this type because these demand no sudden spurts of energy. He likes them because they can be carried on with deliberation and independence. He does not care for any sport involving team work or quick responses to other players. Except when combined with the Thoracic type he especially avoids tennis. Favorite Entertainments Serious plays in which his favorite actors appear are the entertainments preferred by this type. He cares least of all for vaudeville. Social Assets The Osseous has no traits which can properly be called social assets. His general uprightness comes nearest to standing him in good stead socially, however. Social Liabilities Stiffness, reticence, physical awkwardness and the inability to pose or to praise are the chief social handicaps of this type. Emotional Assets The Osseous is not emotional and can not be said to possess any assets that are purely emotional. Emotional Liabilities The lack of emotional fervor and enthusiasm prevents this type from impressing others. Business Assets Keeping his word, orderliness and system are the chief business assets of this type. Business Liabilities A disinclination to mix, the inability to adapt himself to his patrons and a tendency to hold people too rigidly to account are the business handicaps of the Osseous.
