GIVE SCHOOL CHILDREN MEALS
French Authorities Allow None Of
ITEM to Go hunory.

In Paris the city government gives
every school child one full meal a
day. This does not tend to pauperize
the children or to lessen the respon.
slbility OF the parents; for all those
who can AFFORD to pay for the meal
are expected to do so. On the other
hand. no jealousy or contempt can be
felt by the richer children for their
starved comrades: for all are sup.
piled with the same metal token.
which has to be given up in exchange
for the meal. The "c1ntine scolaire,"
as this municipal soup kitchen is
called, Is not confined to Paris. In
the provinces. the "soupe scolalre."
Its equivalent. has sent up the school
attendance by leaps and bounds.
Here, however, instead Of paying for
their midday meal all those who can
possibly do so are encouraged to
bring to school their handful of
vegetables and the like and the con
tributions are all put into the com
mon soup.
