Investigation was miiile also as to how far remedial treatment hail followed the reeommen- ilatioiis for speeifie medical treatment, and this showed that of 1.441 reported ill i-oinieetioii with tonsils anil aileiioids. 405 were treateil. of e.OOS needing spee- tiieles. f.4(T! were treated, of 105 sntlering from iliselmrginy ears. 118 were treated, anil that of 1.070 ehililren siilferitig from other tliscsises. 1 .:!24 or tili.O ]ier cent, were treated. Alost of the ilefeets found in school


ehililreii. it is jiointeil ont. are of ehroiiie nature, " anil many can only he atle- qiiately treated at the special or general hos|)itals, to which they are frequently sent hy medical men." 'There are at jnesent lOli ehililren miller Hi years of age for wlio.se eilneation at .schools for the blind tleaf. and ilninh the eommittee niulertakes responsihilitv. and 02 children in eight industrial schools for whom the eoinmittee is also responsible. With re­ gard to the Hnancial year it is interesting to note Hint Hie aetiial expenditnreprovod substantially le.ss than the sum estimated. 'Tlie reiKirt |)oint.s ont how impossible it is to e.stimate very closely all the details, which in the total, amount to more Hian £500,(.100 ])er aiiiuim. yet at the end of eacli Hnaneial year the eommittee has been alile to re])ort a considerable credit balance th a t for the year ending .March Olst. 1011. amounting to £1(5,587. Some instriietive jiartieiilars are given


with respect to the length of seliool life. I t is found th a t tlioiigh in many .schools tho average school life has been lengthened during recent ycar.s. ))artly as the re.sult of the bursar sy.stein of training teachers, i t i.s .still in the majority of Hie schools far too sliort to admit of the pupils gaining an.ything apjiroaehing to full advantage of the eilueation wliich secondary suhools are intended to give. 'Thus in only 12 out of 29 schools visited did the average school life c.xtcud to three year.s or more, and some considerably less. “ Some pupils are removed immediately an opiiortunity arises for their earning a small weekly wage, though they may have been only one year in the school. In these eases the secondary education obtaineil is scarcely worthy of the n am e ; and it would often he better th a t such children should remain in an elementary school rather th an make for so short a period a transfer which much necessarily involve some disorganisation of study.''
