Book excerpt: Excerpt from Menus and Recipes for Lunches at School Children even more than d nourishing food at every meal. For children, food mu t only for the daily upkeep of the body but more partien demands of growth and of almost ceaseless activity. Start the'day right with a good break fast is one important rule for children. To provide a hot, nourish ing midday meal is just as important. A good meal in the middle of the day, either at home or at school, contributes to growth, nutri tion, amt}. Health, and helps the child to make the most of his school opportunities. Children who seem tired and listless have been found to need nourishment quite as much as rest. For this reason, some schools provide milk at the morning - recess period, and the authorities, acting on the advice of nutritionists and physicians, cooperate in the arrangements for serving a hot lunch at school for children who cannot go home at noon. In some communities the school lunch is sponsored and supervised by the parent-teacher association, the farm bureau women, or some other local group. In some schools the older children operate the lunchroom as a part of their work in food-for-health courses, or sometimes the hot-lunch service is put into the hands of capable persons who are needing employment.
