The adult audiences were poor. It is proposed to arrange
for a further series of four similar programmes after Christmas,
and it is hoped that the adult audiences will improve as this new
effort becomes better known.
Another innovation during the year has been the distribution
of "Better Health" in this Borough. This is a magazine edited
and produced under the auspices of the Society of Medical Officers
of Health, and by arrangement with the printers we have been
enabled to circulate 2,000 copies a month. The magazine deals
lucidly with various aspects of health, the articles being written
usually by well-known members of the medical profession.
Two pages in each issue are devoted to this Borough in
particular. Each issue so far has had a short article by the
Medical Officer of Health on one page, and a time-table of the
various Maternity and Child Welfare and Dental Clinics on the
other page.
There has been a very great demand for these magazines and
we are endeavouring to arrange with the printers to increase
the number of copies available for circulation in the Borough.
