296 Height and Weight of School Children in Glasgow 
but since frequently the centres are at 6"5, 7*5 etc. we have constructed Table III 
which enables anyone to find mean height and weight at any age between 5'5 and 
14'5 years. The regression lines are calculated from the original tables in which 
children of 4'5 to 5 5 years were included. The regression lines omitting the

children of 4-.5 to 5'5 years were worked out for height on age and weight on age 
for boys in Group A, and were found to be VSl instead of I'SO for height and 
4-39 instead of 4"31 for weight, but such differences are not great enough to 
matter and the remaining regression coefficients were not calculated with children 
of five years excluded. 
In connection with the tables (1 to 72, pp. 304 — 339) it should be noted that in 
transferring the data for boys from the original sheets to cards, '75 of an inch was 
included in the inch above; for example, 30-75 inches was entered as 31 inches 
and the centre of the group of 30 inches is 30"125 inches. The data for the girls
