Cove Creek Lunch
Room Serves Average
Of 450 Meals Dailj
At Cove Creek high schood ii
western Watauga, the sounding o
the noon bell no longer summons thi
students forth to cold sandwiches
for with a modern cafeteria-stvli
lunch room where hot meals an
served daily, the cold sandwich i
no longer in vogue.
Through the co-operation of loca
agencies, the federal WPA and thi
surplus commodities departmen
well over half of the student bod;
is served well-balanced meals daily
The lunch room was first organic
in 1934, and in the fall of 1936 Mrs
Myrtle Buchanan was employed a
manager. On her first day of ope
ration, Mrs. Buchanan served onl;
23 students with one helper in aadi
tion to herself. Since that date thi
lunch room has been onerateH on :
constantly growing scale, and toda;
has a total of c-ight employees serving
an average of 451 students daiij
Operated at a federal WPA proj
cct, the lunch room obtains fund
from this agency only in the forr
of salaries for employees. The gov
ernment also furnishes product
through the county welfare depart
ment known as surplus commoditie
consisting of prunes, flour, rice, ap
pies, meats or any other produc
which may be available under sur
plus classification.
Children may purchase thei
meals in one of three manners. O
the grand total of 8.425 meals whirl
were served during the month o
January. 681 were paid lunches. 5.
502 were exchange lunches and 2,
242 were free. Exchange lunchei
are those which are obtainec
through the exchange of farm o
canned goods for meal tickets. Mrs

| Realizing the value of a varied

e constantly changing menu for every 1
t day excepting Thursday, which is
. vegetable soup and dessert day. On I
. other days a plate containing three !
.1 or four vegetables such as prunes, s
i. cabbage, rice, apples, corn, creamed 1
s potatoes and beans is served.
Individual plates sell for only five t
ir cents, and free cocoa is served every
- day to all grammar grade children. 1
e Patrons of the school are highly j
a appreciative of the lunch room and j 1
y their co-pperation indicates that they ; I

and community. The Parent-Teacher j <
