Dr. Richard ". Pullen. superinten- dent Of the department Of health who is cooperating with Dr. Vincent Smith. school physician, in the pre- pairing Of report to the school com mittee on the sale of milk in school buildings, has received favorable re- ports from number of cities which have successfully tried out the plan.
 Dr. Pulen believes that a good grade of milk can be handled in the s"rools and sold to children at price lower than that charged elsewhere. The health snperintendent's personal observations in the nutrition classes conducted last year were that chill dren who have milk as part of their regular diet, show up better in weight and health than those who have not.
 The school accommodations com mittee at the suggestion of Dr. Smith will meet shortly to take up the plan. The health department has already gone on record as favoring the sale Of milk in the school houses.
