Where, on the other hand, schools are arranged in order of register, a
table will show whether schools confronted with practically the same
problems, the same number of defects, the same number of children
needing treatment, are equally successful, or perhaps equally inactive,
in correcting these defects. The following table brings out clearly
marked unequal achievement in the face of relatively equal need.

If the number of schools in a state is so large that it is unlikely
that people will read the table of ranking because of the difficulty of
finding their own school, an alphabetical table might be given that
would show where to look in the general ranking table for the school or
schools in which the reader is interested.
Experience will demonstrate to public school superintendents the
strategic advantage of putting together all the things they need and of
telling the community over and over again just what needs there are,
what penalties are paid for want of them, and what benefits would
result from obtaining them. If health needs of school children were
placed side by side with mental results, the relation would come out so
clearly that parents, school boards, and taxpayers would realize how
inextricably they are bound together and would see that health needs
are satisfied. To this end superintendents should require teachers to
keep daily reports of school conditions.
