If the Table which follows (Table No. 54) is compared
with similar Tables published in previous years, it will be
noticed that a gradual increase is taking place in the number
of attendances made by children over a year old, and that some
progress is being made in securing complete supervision of
'young children until this duty falls on the Education Authority.
The Table shews the number of children, classified by year
of birth, attending each Centre, and the number of attendances
made by them during the year.
