Rural School Children
Don't Drink Enough Milk
University Dietician, in Douglas County Nutrition
Campaign, Says Country Pupils Fail
to Appreciate Food Value
of Dairy Product.
Children of the rural sthuoU of
Nebraska da not drink enough milk.
This abounding revelation was
made yesterday by Mi 1 lorence
Atwood of the cimion service of
the I'nivrt.iiy of Nebraska, who i.
cundneiitig a nutrition campaign in
Douglas county.
In some of the rural schools the
pfrreuuge of pupils who do not
drink milk reaches as high $0 and
75 per cent, Mis Atwood declared.
In Omaha city school children
who are undernourished are fed two
glasses of milk each day. Some such
arrangemeut may be adopted for the
rural schoids.
Don't Appreciate Value,
Miss Atwood attributes the lack of
milk on the diets of rural youngtrrs
to the fact that there is so much milk
on the farm they do not appreciate
its worth to their growth and nour
ishment. "We visit the schools and get in
touch with the children first." she
said. "We geuerally weigh and meas
ure hrm and urge them to drink
more milk. 1 hen we meet with the
county agents and parent and ad
vacate closer supervision of diet.
"Another strange thing is that with
all the fresh frmt and vegetable
available on the farm, the rural ehil
dien fail to get their proper amount
of vitellines, clinging rather to meats
and starchy vegetables.
Covers IS Counties.
Mi Atwood ha been in the ex
tension tcrvice of the university for
three years and iu that time has cov
ered more than 15 counties. From
here she goes to Clay county next
week..
Miss Louise Murphy, health spe
cialist of the university extension
service, will he in Douglas county
next month, she said, and Dr. Caro
line Hedger of Chicago, who is in
great demand throughout the country
in this work, probably will come to
Nebraska next fall.
Hail Agents Organize
Local passenger agents of rail
roads running in to Omaha and
Council Muffs met at 6:30 last night
at Hotel l-'ontenelle to form a pas
senger agents' association.' '
"Most Pathetic
Case of Poverty
in City'' Found
Children Without Nourish,
nient Except Milk Given
Them at School Fall.,
er'i Salary Carnisheil.
Welfare board worker believe thry
hive discovered the "most pathetic
case of poverty in Omaha."
A frail little woman, giving her
name as Mrs. C. Sterling, entered the
Welfare board otfices a day or so
ago and sank weakly into a chair.
"She told me her five little chil
dren have been without food for sev
eral days," said Mrs. Ida Levin of
the board. "Her husband is employed
part of the time at a packing house,
but until recently hi salary has been
gamisheed.
"Their rent lias become due. and
they must move soon. They have no
place to move. Hut the last few days
have been the worst for the family.
Every cent has been used by the fa
ther for street car fare and the chil
dren, who are attending Farnam
school despite their ragged cloth
ing, liave had no nourishment except
milk given them at school."
The Sterlings live in a shack at
3417 Jackson street, Mrs. Levin
says.
