NOTES ON TABLE II.
(a) The figures to be included in this space should refer to the findings
of the Medical Officer and not those resulting from dental inspection in
the schools by the School Dentist. The findings of the School Dentist
should be recorded in Table IV., Group IV.
(b) No individual child should be counted more than once in this part
of Table II., i.e., under B., even if it is found to be suffering from more
than one defect.
(c) The figures in this column will of course be the same as those
given in Table I. A.
(d) The figure in this column will be the percentage of the figure in
column (3) of that in column (2).
