(c) Ear, Hose and Throat Service. Mr. F.
Courtenay Mason, your Consultant Specialist held 28
sessions at the Central Clinic.
No operative sessions were held at Barking
Hospital, the treatment of such cases being carried out at
Queen Mary's Hospital, King George Hospital and St. Mary's
Hospital.
There was a slight decrease during the year
in the number of children treated for defects of the Nose
and Throat.

(d) Dental Inspection and Treatment. The work
of this service was considerably interrupted owing largely
to the fact that Mr. Angelinan was called to serve with H.M.
Forces and later owing to the regrettable death of Mr, Foy,
your Senior Dental Officer, whose work was so much
appreciated.
We were fortunate, however, in being able to
obtain the services of other Dental Surgeons especially
so in the ease of Captain Angus Smith, who now operates at
the Central Clinic.
It will be seen that although the dental
inspections at school decreased, the actual amount of
treatment work carried out at the various clinics compares
not unfavourably with previous years.
In this connection it night- be added that
during the greater part of the year under review, your
dental work was carried out at Bifrons Dental Clinic,
Manor Dental Clinic and East Street Dental Clinic, but that
in October it was found possible to re-open the Central
Dental Clinic in Vicarage Drive, Ripple Road, and transfer
the work originally carried out at the East Street Clinic to
these premises.
