Abstract
Growth records were taken over a period of 20 mos. from 273 children under the influence of a health education program and from 202 children in a comparable control group. The rate of gain in both height and weight for the children receiving health education was greater than for the children in the control group. Seasonal fluctuation in the amount and extent of underweight was shown.Keywords
