![A similar, but more highly developed, system is in use in the schools of Los Angeles, California. There a standard five by eight inch index card is used for the record of each pupil. One side is filled out by the teacher and the other by the school physician. Professor George L. Leslie, Director of the Department of Health and Development of Los Angeles City Schools, writes as follows concerning the use of this card: “ We yoke the school teacher and the physician together as nearly as possible by the use of the record card. The plan is not too difficult for the teachers of the schools, and very materially aids the physicians in their work. It also emphasizes the fact that both teachers and parents ought to and must know more of the common develop¬ mental conditions of boys and girls as a matter of every day living, if physical excellence and not degeneracy is to show in the growth and development of the young.” A simple card for keeping the individual record of physical examina¬ tions is in use in Utica, N. Y. It has the shortcoming of not having spaces provided for recording more than one examination. PHYSICAL RECORD CARD, UTICA, N. Y.
