Kstlmatlng that on an average each child who dies of tuberculosis has had six years of schooling, the aggregate loss to the country in each year amounts wasted to f 1,1.12, 000.

The National Association for tin Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis declares that there are two ways of checking the ravages of tuberculosis among school children.
