A LUNCH with HOT FOOD helps Jack and Jill work with a will

by Dorothy Greig

"HURRY home at noon", Mother would tell us youngsters. "There'll be a good hot lunch waiting for you." Mother was a great believer in the powers of wholesome food to solve most problems of life. "No excuse for poor marks after that lunch", she'd say.

And she spoke more truly even than she knew. Food authorities tell us that children need a well balanced, nourishing meal at noon, preferably with some hot food. Only then can children be expected to study well. A good lunch renews their vitality and helps keep them alert for the afternoon's work.

The hot food may well be soup- nourishing, and easy to prepare. Or ft can be a simple casserole. For instance:
