BOLIVIA SCHOOL LUNCH j
Continued From Page One |
and all of the other numerous
essentials to the operation of a|
lunch room. After the first food
supplies were purchased they had |
about $25.00 left over, according
to Principal O. C. Bruton, when
he was interviewed this week,
"We still have just about $25.00
left over."
But with neither gain nor loss
of capital, an enormous amount
of good has been dpne by the
lunch room since it first went in
to operation. With 450 students
at Bolivia 250, or more than half
the boys and girls, are regular
patrons of the lunch room. For,
15 cents daily they get a warm,
substantial lunch of egga, meat,
bread, fruit juice, milk, etc. They
get this right there in the warm,'
comfortable building, seated at j
good tables.
The daily lunche? are prepared!
by Mrs. Carrie Tharp with Mrs.,
Lillian Mercer and Mrs. Pearl'
Sullivan as helpers. These ladles. [
in turn, have the unstinted help
of the domestic science class of J
the high school.
A fine thing in connection with |
the lunch room operation is that,
it has' the sympathetic under- j
stand and wholehearted support I
of the patrons of the school. An |
unhearalded and unannounced visit
there this week revealed the
full of students and ladies 0|
community. With such intere
the Bolivia women folks she
the school lunch room, it fol
that the men folks are no
interested.
