Nutrition Committee

The recent organization
of the Licking County Nu-
triton Committee in coop
GRAFTON with the nationwide
movement for national de-
fense is certainly a forward
step toward building a
stronger nation.
During the last World
War similar committees were
organized, school lunches
were served, and every ef-
fort made to see that malnu-
triton was eliminated in the
lower income groups. Fol
lowing the war the worth
while movement finally fad
ed, and abandoned in most
instances altogether. That
was a near calamity, and
proven as such by the great
number Of recent draftee
reflections.
Just why it should take a
war to make individuals and
the nation conscious of the
Importance of building
strong bodies and general
morale is hard to figure out.
Naturally we are behind
the movement and it is our
sincere hope that all effort
will be put forth to elimin-
ate malnutrtiion not only
in this community, but
throughout the land. We
only hope that following the
emergency or whatever may
be ahead for the American
people, the program will be
continued and not again
laid on the shelf as in for
mer decades.
In a fast-changing world
there is little question but
what it will be a survival of
frthe fittest"- and it is a
challenge to the American
people to not again overlook
the important part vitimans
