Nutrition is Basic Consideration
In Present-Day Educational Program
The school lunch is an im
portant part of the total edu
cational experience of every
child, according to Mrs. Thel
ma Cope, manager of the Pal
mer school lunch program.
Since the basic consideration
in any school program is the
maximum growth and develop
ment of the child, one of the
first needs is to meet the child’s
nutritional requirements, Mrs.
Cope said.

The Air Force’s 1929 Com
munication Group, which oper
ates the Alaska Communication
System, announced this week
that they expect a record vol
ume of telephone calls to and
from Alaska during the com
ing holidays.
Additional stateside circuits
will be activated for the holi
day period in order to handle
the heavy traffic load.
To speed service, the Air
Force suggests that persons
planning to make long distance
calls during the Holiday secure
in advance the telephone num
bers to be called.
When exchange of telephone
numbers by personal corres
pondence is not possible, the
Air Force will secure in ad
vance the requested telephone
numbers with no charge to the
customer. This service is avail
able by contacting the long dis
tance operator and asking for
the telephone number of the
person to be called.
“Optimum living depends up
on food eaten in proper kinds
and amounts at regular inter
vals. The school lunch makes
an important contribution to
ward meeting these require
ments by providing one-third
of the child’s total daily nutri
tional needs. Children are en
couraged to acquire the habit
of accepting all foods, in order
to obtain maximum benefits.”
To realize the purposes of
the school lunch program, it is
the responsibility of parents as
well as teachers to guide chil
dren in the development of
good food habits and attitudes,
Mrs. Cope emphasized* §
