It will be seen that the birth-rate for Finsbury is greater than the rate for the whole of England and Wales, greater than the birth-rate for London, and greater than the rates in the 76 great towns, the 141 smaller towns and the essentially rural districts. The birth-rate for Finsbury is only 21 less than it was ten years ago, and is higher than it was in 1905 and 1907. The birth-rate is greatest in St. Luke, least in St. Sepulchre's. The rate in St. Luke's is exceptionally high, being 50.3 per 1,000. This figure has only once been exceeded since the Borough of Finsbury was constituted. NOTIFICATION OF BIRTHS ACT, 1907. This Act was adopted by the Borough Council on December 19th, 1907, and came into force on 9th March, 1908.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b18108921_0009.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
