"Life is our school-house. Its rooms may be bare, but they are
littered with opportunities of becoming fit for our great inheritance."—
F. B. Meyer.
Town Hall,
Lower Edmonton,
17th June, 1913.
To the Chairman and Members of the
Edmonton Education Committee.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the pleasure of submitting my first Annual Report as School
Medical Officer. Although my appointment did not take effect until
April 30th, 1912, the particulars refer to the whole of that year. The
association of Dr. Rock, Miss Johnston, and myself, ever since I became
School Medical Officer, has been happy and harmonius.
I desire on behalf of them and myself, to express our thanks to Mr.
Heap, the attendance officers, and the teachers, for their hearty co-operation
at all times. The good work of medical inspection can only have its
best results when we are all united in promoting the welfare of the
children.
The information is set out in a manner desired by the Board
of Education.
I am, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
SIDNEY C. LAWRENCE,
School Medical Officer.
