                            This paper presents growth patterns of height and sitting-height in Japanese boys and girls based on the reports of health statistics for school children in Japan. The special growth model is used for growth analysis. A growth model is useful for data-reduction. Some changes in height and sitting-height of Japanese born after 1943 are discussed.
