needy children in the primary grades
of Marion School. These children
made an average gain of 3% pounds
despite the difference in clothing
worn when weighed in February and
April. One child in the second grade
gained ten pounds. The children en
joyed the soups and crackers more
than the milk served last year, and
the teachers themselves feel that the
children were greatly benefited by
this hot food, as most of then^ were
actually hungry. An improvement in
the class-room work was very percep
tible as they gained in weight.
“The teachers wish to commend
this work done by the Woman’s Club
thru the chairmanship of Mrs'. Noyes,
and to pledge our support to her in
future campaigns of this nature.”
