when the average number for the next three months was 103, our
arrangements for dealing with the Disease on the usual lines was
totally inadequate.
The main cause of the unusual bound in September was the school
holidays and the consequent absence of intelligent supervision by the
teachers of our school children.
This is no new experience here, and I have more than once referred
to it.
I trust the record of work carried out, as given in the general body of
the Report, will serve to show that the natural advantages enjoyed by
the District from its proximity to Epping Forest are not lessened by the
failure of any of your Staff to make the fullest use of their opportunities
to serve your Authority and the Public.
The report headed School Medical Service, page 71, has been
compiled by Dr. Harding, who with Dr. Hall is responsible mainly for
the routine work of School Medical Inspections and that of the Clinics.
I beg to remain,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
J. J. CLARKE.
