4 HALT ON PICKLES.
Depriving Boston Girls of Their Fn-
yOrite Luncheon.


Considerable interest is being man
ifested in regard to the 1uncheons now
provided at recess time for boys and
girls in the high schools. In almost
every high school in the city the ma
jorty of the pupils buy their lunch
cons from the lunch counter kept by
the janitor. and the food so provided
consists largely of pies and cakes
'hakehouse stuff" as some people call
it-and pickles.
The janitOrs keep that kind of food
because the pupils will buy it in pre-
ference to other more wholesome kinds,
and also because there is probably
more profit in it. Nevertheless, the
parents of the pupils are anxious that
some different system may be adop-
ted in the matter of furnishing lunch
cons. They think it high time that
something was done about it, for in
schools where there are no lunch coun-
tiers, peddlers of cheap candy, cocoanut
cakes and other unWholesome COM
pounds make their appearance at re-
cess, and are generally well patronized
by the hungry boys and girls.
The first official step toward better
ing this state of things was taken yes
terday, when an order was passed by
lHG SCHOOI UOdIu pIUNluIuS mat all
luncheons sold in the public schools
should be such as are approved by the
committee on hygiene and physical
training. Moreover, the committee was
instructed to report at the next meet
ing of the board plan for providing
suitable luncheons at proper places for
the high school pupils.
Just what the committee intends TO
do is hard to say, but several persons
interested are hoping that it will be
able to make some arrangement with
the New England Kitchen, whereby
soups, sandwiches, milk and other
wholesome articles of food may be fur
nished directly to the pupils at mod
crate prices. The kitchen has it's
main station on Pleasant street and
another station at the North End.
1t is thought that soups might be
carried from the kitchen TO the schools
in tanks, just as coffee is sometimes
transported and in that way might be
served hot. Such a system of provid-
ing luncheons would be more favor
able to the health of the pupils. and
therefore more acceptable to the par
ents. AS for the old system, the jan
itors are not thought to merit any
blame for they simply provided what
the pupils would buy; but now that
the committee has taken the matter in
hand it is likely that most pupils will
have to give up the practice of maxi
ing a luncheon on an eclair, a piece
of pie, or fpickle.-Boston Evening
