Lunch Trays
Attract Boy
TOLLS Meals
Lonely Son With Small
Appetite Now Can Be
With Mother.
BY MARY +. DAGUE
NEA Service stan Writer

For some time my small sons
lunch hour had to be different from
that Of the rest of the family be-
cause Of his school schedule. This
meant he must eat alone and he
hated it until I hit on the plan of
serving him on a tray. The idea
was a godsend.
You see, the lonely child has lit
tie appetite and resents taking time
of from more important things to
eat.
A tray gives him company. for it
can be carried wherever a mothers
work may take her. If she is in the
kitchen, the tray may be placed at
one corner of the kitchen table.
A corner of the sewing table or
a sunny window in any room is a
pleasant place to eat if there's
cheerful company and conversation.
The tray plan also does away with
the need for keeping the dining
room table set for an hour or so be-
tween meals.
A fair-sized, oblong tray, small
and light enough for a child to
carry but strong and firm is needed,
and dishes Of shapes that will not
upset easily.
Keeping the Food Hot
The problem of keeping foods hot
and appetizing I have solved by the
use of small covered casseroles.
These can be placed in pan of hot
water to heat the food easily and
evenly without danger Of burning
or drying out. Individual containers
or molds are a great convenience,
too.
The luncheon for one has an i'm
portant point in its favor-it pro-
vides opportunity to cater to indi-
vidual need and taste.
The child who is bit finicky and
tends to underweight may be
tempted by favorite and nourishing
foods, perhaps too expensive for the
family table and the hearty appe<
| tites of robust children.
He may have an eggnog instead
of plain milk, cream instead of top
milk over his baked apple or pud-
ding and a broiled lamb chop.
One hot dish should be included
in the school child's luncheon. A
cream soup can be quickly reheated.
If baked potatoes were served to
the family the late luncher's may
be mashed and seasoned and put
back in the potato skin to be re-
heated when wanted.
Menus Suggested
A few days ago 1 had letter
from mother asking for menus
suitable for boy of eight. These
menus are planned for the child
from seven to nine.
Cream of corn soup, toast sticks
carrot strawS, rolled oats cookies
lemonade or orange juice.
Dreamed lamb on toast, lettuce
sandwich, baked apple, cocoa made
with milk.
Stuffed baked potato, hearts of
celery, cinnamon toast, eggnog.
Cream of tomato soup, toasted
crackers, peanut butter and lettuce
sandwich, baked pear, ginger
cookie, milk
Egg poached in milk on toast
sliced bananas with sugar ano
cream, molasses cookies, grape juice

Leadership In St.
Paul Politics
VETERAN RAILROAD MAN, Or
GAMER OF SQUARE DEAL
CLUB, GIVES VIEWS ON ST.
PAUL POLITICAL SITUATION.
To Editor Twin City Herald:

To Editor Twin City Herald:
The Square Deal Club, new politi-
cal club, brings to my people new
deal, new thought, a new idea and
vision. The people of st. Paul of my
group desire and demand a proper
leadership which will see that things
are accomplished for the group. There
is an overwhelming sentiment for a
change in leadership in civic and po-
litical affairs. My people in st. Paul
are not being served with the proper
leadership in the political affairs of
the city. AS taxpayers we have from
time to time supported the various
candidates of the white group and
elected them to office. What have
we received in return for our sup
port? Nothing but few handshakes
and no jobs.
The Square Deal Club has brought
New Deal to my people. Its mem
bers have long looked with disfavor
on the present management Of Negro
politics. We have no real political
leader in the city-the leaders of our
group are the ministers of the gospel
who lead not in politics.
Recently 1 called on certain parties
who are candidates for city offices.
They asked me to call tomorrow. I
called again the next day and they
asked me if I had seen Mr.. Ed. Hall.
I said, "No, I have not" The parties
in question said to me, "You go and
see Mr.. Hall, Mr.. Hill, we have gone
over the matter with Mr.. Hall" 1
said, "Mr. Hall isn't a member of
our club and has no authority to die
tate terms for the Square Deal Club. "
l told them that the officers of the
Square Deal Club were capable of
taking care of the affairs of the
Square Deal Club. want to say
right here that it is my desire to
maintain cordial relations with each
other-through greater understanding
through economic development-the
foundation of peace building up con-
fdence and friendship between US. ]
am grateful to have been able to
place six people. of my group in cleo
ton polling places in this campaign.
L am not politician-I am not
leader nor am I trying to be a
leader. I am taxpayer, railroad
thinker whose judgment approves
this measure-a free exercise of
thought know right from wrong.

been a prosecuted race, and that the
Jew of today inherits- this age old
prejudice, he showed that Negroes
suffered from the same injustices
which were heaped upon Jews. Mr..
