Comments of A.S.M.O.—Dr. Granger Evans reports that she found
very little serious disease. "The chief morbid conditions have been
carious teeth, verminous heads, defective eyesight, and, in a few
cases, enlarged tonsils and adenoids. As regards the dirty heads,
I have made great efforts at improving the general conditions at the
school, and, on the whole, have had some success, though the
want of the attendance officers this term, and the lack of legal
power to deal with persistent offenders, have minimised the effect."
