food 20 provided consists largely OF

janitor keeps that kind OF food because
the pupils will buy II in preference to
any more wholesome kinds. and also
because there is probably more proht

Nevertheless. the parents OF the
pupils are anxious that some different
system may be adopted In the matter
Of furnishing mncheOns. They think
II high time that something was done
about IL, for In schools where there

committee on hygiene and physical
training. Moreover, the committee
