addition there have been 322 talks to school leavers at the Grammar and Secondary
Modern Schools and in the 14 years since this part of the scheme was commenced
approximately 12,650 children have attended; a total of 60 talks has also been given
to various women's organisations, the total attendance being approximately 2,000.
On six occasions during the year circular letters were sent to food traders and these
dealt mainly with advice concerning supplies of corned beef and personal hygiene at
the time of the Aberdeen typhoid outbreak. A further letter was sent later in the
year with an appeal to traders dealing with bacon, cooked meats and meat pies to
adopt a coding system of their own and to ensure a proper rotation of stocks of these
goods in their shops. The letter also gave specific examples of how such a coding
system could be used and was commented upon favourably by several major suppliers
and manufacturers of these foods. There is no doubt that as a result of the Aberdeen
outbreak the general public became more active in protesting about articles of food
when sold out of condition or when containing foreign bodies and many more
complaints of this nature were dealt with than in other recent years.
