4 PUPPIES VIEW ON COln
 PULSORY LUNCH

In Fridays paper, 1t was stat ed that if one pupil was late, the whole room would lose the time, until that pupil was at his or her desk. I beg to say that this is a mistake, as the room is not held until that pupil arrives. The pupil is the only one who loses the time. In some rooms, he is required to make up twice the time that is lost.
 Pupils will not be late at noon, if the ruling is made that they will be required to bring their lunch for a week, when they are late. It was also said that our heaviest meal should be at din- ner. Doctors say hat lunch should be the heaviest meal, and that we should eat no, or light dinner.
