HEIGHT AND WEIGHT OF SCHOLARS.
I am greatly indebted to the head teachers of the Kensal Rise
Council School for their continued observations in respect of Weight
and Height of scholars attending that school. I have classified and
tabulated these returns as shown in the following table. The value
of these results will be even more apparent when similar observations
are carried out in all the schools as it is hoped will be done under
the expanded scheme for the medical inspection of school children.
