Through the kindness of the Medical Officer of Flealth and School
Medical Officer of the London County Council, I am enabled to submit
the following highly interesting table showing the result of routine
examination of school children in Hampstead during 1920. The children
examined were those arriving at certain ages ; the cases selected for
special examination on account of a suspected defect have not been
included.
