REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIANS
Milford, Mass., January 3, 1934.
To the School Committee of Milford:
We have the pleasure of reporting this year that we found 46% of our pupils free from notable defects- nearly one-half of the total number examined.
Judging from the number of defects which have been corrected or treated, it is evident that some children are receiving more benefit than others from the medical in- spection. Many parents have co-operated promptly and eagerly to remedy the faults. Others have done nothing, but this is not due in all cases to neglect nor to careless- ness; money has not been plentiful in recent years.
Our investigations reveal the fact that 997 previously reported defects have been corrected or treated, an excel- lent showing. On the other hand, we regret to report 385 cases of poor nutrition or poor development and 206 cases of bad posture, faults which may often be remedied without much expense.
Especially do we urge that the younger children, that is, the pupils of the first four grades, be given more atten- tion; frequently their health as well as their scholarship is retarded by physical defects unrecognized.
The following tables are presented to give a summary of the results of the annual inspection.

Total cash collected for seals and buttons for 1933, $54.00.

Classmates, we gather here To bid farewell; What future years may bring We cannot tell. Dear Alma Mater, we
Pledge each our faith to thee;
In our triumphs or defeats We'll love thee still.
Up life's broad highway we'll Go unafraid; Knowledge will guide us right O'er hill and glade. You, Alma Mater dear,
Have dispelled every fear; Passing years can ne'er erase Our mem'ries of thee.
May some new dawning find Us hand in hand, Making our voices heard Throughout the land. Youths of today are we; Soon leaders we shall be, Faithful to our motto fair, "Deeds not words."
-Charles Harold Mattson.
