HOT LUNCH PROVED
SUCCESS In SCHOOLS
County Nurse Finds Gains in Weight
In Almost ALI Schools Where Hot
Lunches Were Served.

Miss Irene Labrie, county nurse,
made twenty-four schools last week,
covering 244 miles in all in order to
check the gains made by school chill
dren this past year. She found that
the children have gained in weight
in seventeen of the eighteen schools
where hot lunches have been served.
Illness among the children in this
school accounted for the loss in
weight
The replies to the sixty question
naires sent to the schools of the cOun-
ty reveal that eighteen schools have
hot lunch equipment installed, eight
plan to install it next year, and twen-
ty-four have made no decision in the
matter. The remaining ten have not
been heard from. The cost of equip
ment varied from $500 to $500 de-
pending on the amount Of material
donated. The total expense of the
hot lunches varied from $1,000 to
| $4,000. The number OF pupils fed
ranged from eleven to thirty-three to
building. Some of the schools
raised the money entirely through
donations
Teachers report that children are
more attentive and easier to teach
after hot lunch than after a cold
one. The little extra work that is
necessary in preparing the lunch is
a small matter when compared to the
good it does the pupils according to
many teachers who have prepared
the lunches this year. In the schools
where there are scales, and
the children were weighed monthly.
