Within the early months after birth, liowcver, the myehnation of these, as well asof other tracts, progresses rapidly, although this process is not even moderately com-pleted until after the lapse of several years. Indeed, there is sufificient evidence tobelieve that myelination of additionalfibres continues so long as intellectualeffort is progressive, the demands madeby e d u c a t i o n and special mentalexercise being met bv a correspondingcompletion of additional associationfil)res. The short association fibrespass in great numbers from one convo-lution to the next, bending in U-likestrands around the inter\ening of these loo[)s are confined to thedeeper layers of the gray matter andconstitute the i)itracortical associationf
