Parents of grade school children
will be interested to know that the
serving of hot dishes for luncheon
at each one of the elementary
school buildings is being sponsored
by the school authorities. Luncheon
has been served at the cafeteria Of
the Wilson school for some time, but
the extension of this service to the
other schools has just begun this
week.
Harding school s service was open
cd Monday, with 81 pupils taking
the hot dishes. With the cooler days
coming, it is expected that the de-
nand will increase.
One hot dish is served each day,
and Mrs. Otis Tipps, who is in
charge of the work, is planning to
vary the dishes from day to day.
Such nourishing dishes as vegetable
stew, mashed potatoes and gravy,
soup and spaghetti will be served.
The quantity and quality of the
hot lunch provides enough food val
Le for five cents to dispense with
the home lunch unless the child
wishes to add milk or fruit, it is
stated.
Mothers are welcoming the service
as a practical and satisfactory re-
lief from putting up the daily lunch.
Food is prepared at the Wilson
school, and taken hot to the differ
ent buildings, where electric plates
permit the temperature to be main
tanned until the food is served. Each
school places its order in the morn
ing, and the food is delivered by
the janitor, dishes being returned
10 the Wilson school. By this meth
cd the confusion of preparing food
in each building, is eliminated and
the whole plan is operated more eff
fieiently and at a minimum cost.
The movement is being financed
by the school authorities, but at the
non-profit price of five cents per
dish, the service has been found to
be self-sustaining.
The hot dish service will open at
Mckinley and Lincoln schools next
Monday.
