INTRODUCTION.
School Medical Department,
Town Hall,
Tottenham,
March, 1927.
To the Chairman and other Members of the Tottenham
Education Committee.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
The only outstanding event during 1926 in relation to the School
Medical Service was an epidemic of diphtheria commencing soon after
the Summer Holidays.
The 1926 report has been condensed, as far as possible, into tabular
form.
The Staff have fulfilled their duties loyally, and the success that has
attended their efforts is attributable, in large measure, to your Committee's
constant anxiety for the welfare of the school children.
I am, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Yours faithfully,
