(a) Minor Ailments.
An analysis of the chief minor ailments treated at the School
Clinics, and otherwise, will be found in Table IV, Group 1.
(b) Tonsils and Adenoids.
Of the children referred for treatment 281 received operative
treatment during the year 1937.
The scheme for treatment remained the same as detailed in
previous reports.
The drop in the number of operations performed is accounted
for by a reduction in the number of cases referred for treatment
(vide Section 5 (c) ), and by the delay occasioned as the result of
the closure of Balaam Street Children's Hospital for a period of
some weeks during the year 1937.
