TO the
Education Committee.
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to submit to you the Annual Report on
the work of the School Medical Department for the year 1918.
The scheme of medical inspection and treatment of school
children, as the Report will demonstrate, has not suffered in any
way during the year. As a matter of fact, the administrative
machinery has been improved in many details, making for expedition
in the treatment of the children and for the keeping of
"better records.
Towards the end of the year the acquirement of premises
at 13, Mattock Lane, to which the School Clinic and the whole
of the School Medical Staff were transferred, was an excellent
step forward, placing as it did the whole of the staff in the same
building, and enabling complete co-ordination of the work to be
effected, and proper supervision to be established.
In presenting this Report, I desire to take the opportunity
of expressing my deep gratitude to my staff, who have carried out
their work in an admirable manner, and have loyally supported
me in my efforts to carry out the work of the department efficiently.
I am, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
THOMAS ORR.
