LUNCHES AID
SCHOLARSHIP
Hot Lunches Are Provided
For $4,000 Children
Daily at School
INCREASE IN WEIGHT

School bells will soon be ringing
eggs obtained from hens in pens
throughout Delaware. And when
the States youngsters again head
for classrooms they will have their
school days frightened by hot
lunches, hot lunches that mean bet
ter health for school children dur
ing the entire year. Miss Pearl
Macdonald, University of Delaware
nutritionist, recently made a sur
vey to determine the extent that
school lunches are being served
throughout the State, exclusive of
Wilmington. She contacted ITO
schools. Of the 166 schools an
lswering her QUESTIONABLE, 133 are
now serving a lunch to some 10000
children daily. Repeatedly, the
ouestionnaires that came back to
Miss Macdonald from all parts of
the State, gave results of the one
hot-dish or lunch served in schools.
Results listed by the teachers in
cluded more regular attendance,
better behavior, higher quality
school work and greater interest Of
parents in the school and in the
progress of their children. Many
teachers reported increased weight
of undernourished boys and girls,
fewer colds, general health i'm
provement, and greater vitality and
activity. Many schools in Della
ware, where eligiblel children are
enrolled, have been able to serve
more hot lunches through use of
foods provided by the Surplus Com
modities Corporation. Miss Mac
Donald feels that homemakers in
all parts of the State should start
right now to plan for serving of hot
school lunches in their individual
communities. She maintains that
the homemaker can plan her home
food production, canning and stor-
age program so some of the food
can be supplied for maintaining hot
school lunches during the year in
her community, with each family

AUTOS HELP IN
NATL DEFENSE
Delaware Motorists Complete
Year of Service in De-
fense Tax Army
FIRST GROUP AFFECTED

Delaware motorists have COM
pleted their first year of service in
the national defense tax army, H.
v. Daniel, Secretary, Associated
Petroleum Industries of Delaware,
said today in commenting on the
fact that the second federal tax on
motor fuel levied for national de-
fense purposes, has been in effect
for one whole year. Motor ve-
hicle owners were one of the first
groups to be affected by defense
taxes, and the burden of their tax
alton has been increased the most" Z"
said Mr.. Daniel. Congress inn
posed, effective on July l, 1910, an
additional tax on motor fuel at a
rate equivalent to 80 per cent of
the rate previously prevailing. No
other group of taxpayers have had
so heavy a burden added to their
national defense tax knapsack. And
no other group have borne as
cheerfully the extra burden of de-
fense taxation. Motor vehicle own
ers not only shoulder tax KNAPP
sack for the federal government,
but they also carry heavy load of
state taxes. Duration of service in
the defense tax army has been
placed by Congress at five years.
The levy was adopted on that
basis, to end on July 1, 1916. Our
motorists are hopeful that their
federal tax demobilization will take
place at that time"

Famous Yosemite Pine
Thrives Without Soil

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK,
LIF.-Occasioned by the ques-
tions of tourists, study of lone
pine tree that grows out of a solid
rock surface high above the Yosem-
ite valley has been made by the
National Park service.
Naturalists said the tree, which is
80 feet tall, grows out of a fissure
in the granite face known as Ell Capt.
tan. Its food is manufactured in
its leaves from water and carbon
dioxide, and such minerals as it
requires may be obtained from the
rock. Its supply of moisture ap-
parently is gained from winter rain
and snow.
Thus it thrives without soil.
