NATION ACCEPTS GOALS IN NAACP ’47 CAMPAIGN New York, February 24—En couraged by the whole-hearted re sponses coming in from states and branches accepting their member ship goals; and in osme cases, ev __ One evening recently one of my neighbors dropped in while I was preparing my son's lunch for school the next day. She was surprised tc see me fixing lunches at night to be eaten the next noon—and asked if they ^weren’t too stale to eat. Well, I just laughed at her . . . and ex. plained that by wrapping the sand* wiches and desserts securely in waxed paper, and then placing in my refrigerator until morning, the lunches were just as fresh as when they were first made. The main reason for preparing lunches at night is to save time in the morning. But you know, we mothers of today are very fortu nate . ... most modern schools pro vide milk, hot cocoa and hot soup for the children. The price is very reasonable and with the sandwich and dessert prepared at home, the children will have a nourishing, healthful lunch. I was surprised to learn that soup_was served students as early as 1790 in Munich, Germany! 60 years later a similar plan was adopted, in Franee and later in England. School lunches were in troduced in this country in 1900, primarily intended for under-nour ished children . . . but today, they’re available to all our youngsters. - I By the way, here is one of my favorite lunch box suggestions. Put ti a small package of potato chips, rhe children enjoy them immensely ind since they are wrapped in vaxed paper—they'll stay fresh ind tasty indefinitely! Try it, it’s he surest way to break the lunch iox monotony I know. - i Classified Ads Get Resuitsj Would Like to Buy 39 to 42 rpodel car from private party.
