N2  - The last annual report of this institution was reviewed in these columns and comment made on the thoroughness with which the statistics are collected. The attempt to standardize the making of statistics of hospitals in general and of maternities in particular is most commendable and such a work should be begun in the United States. Every hospital publishes its statistics in its own particular way and there is no means by which one can compare its results with other institutions. In this report the patients are divided into three categories: A, those who had been under antenatal supervision; B, emergency cases; C, those applying for admission without previous supervision. The forlorn conditions under which some women of Glasgow have to give birth to their babies is evidenced by the fact that twenty-nine arrived at the hospital in such a state that they died before they could be delivered.
