THE ScHooLBox.s COLD LUNCH.

Another evil is the cold lunch which
must be taken by most of the children, for
the hours intermission at noon scarcely
allows even those residing near the school
to go home, dine and return. Every house
keeper knows how difficult it is to pro
vide variety in cold lunches. Children
often take the same things TO school day
after day, till they tire of them. Food
which has been done up in a tin box, or
wrapped in napkins, is not apt to look, or
smell, or taste very nice. The child is not
tempted, and its noon meal, which should
be the principal one of the day, is made a
poor and light one. Perhaps it is eked out
with pickles, sweets and cakes of doubt
full composition, purchased at the catch
penny store always to be found near a
sehoolhouse.
If during the winter months an inter-
mission of an hour and a half or even of
two hours were given, as is done in many
Swiss and German schools, most of the
children could go home and take the hot,
nourishing midday meal which many doc-
tors consider necessary to health.-E. H
