9. As a preliminary to statistical analysis, it will be necessary
to enter the individual results upon "working sheets"
with columns for the several particulars to be distinguished
statistically. Sample working sheets are enclosed, and
further copies will be supplied if desired. It is suggested
that in order to simplify the labour of totalling and
analysis the investigators' reports should be divided into
broad groups, e.g.,
Mother industrially employed at home
„ „ „ in factory or
„ „ „ workshop
„ „ „ elsewhere
Mother not employed industrially
with further subdivision
of each
accordingly as
the child is living
or dead at the
end of the year,
and that each group of reports should be entered on
separate sheets.
As work in lead is of especial importance, it is further suggested
that separate sets of sheets as above should be reserved for entry of
cases where the mother's employment is of that kind.
Faithfully yours,
B. A. WHITELEGGE,
H.M. Chief Inspector of Factories.

The Medical Officer of Health,
