They have all done their duty loyally and cheerfully, and I would
take this opportunity of placing on record my appreciation of their
services.
Doctors and nurses recognize with grateful thanks your Committee's
consideration for their health and comfort in furnishing for
them private rooms where they may have rest and refreshment during
intervals of respite from their duties.
The clerical work is now conducted in comfort, and, therefore,
with greater efficiency, in the commodious offices at the Castle.
A word of thanks is also due to the teachers and attendance
officers for their generous help in all matters in which they were in a
position to render it.
And finally, Miss Gowan and Gentlemen, if the real reason were
required why the Tottenham School Medical Service is so successful the
proper answer would be:—Because the Education Committee know
how to treat good servants and the staff know how to serve appreciative
masters.
Your obedient servant,
David C. Kirkhope.
