CONDITIONS FOUND ON INSPECTION.
Weights and Heights.
In every case the heights and weights have been carefully
taken and entered on the record card. In past years these have
been averaged and recorded according to the ages.
Much useful information has thus been obtained, and it may
be considered sufficient for local use. For comparative purposes
with other districts such measurements are of but little value
unless all are taken on the same basis as regards clothing, and
consequently the tables previously published in the Annual Report
are discontinued.
