The old tale that "Monday we
wa.di, Tuesday w bake. Wednes-"
day the nueen'a child we take,'
has been rcun' ructed in theso
modern times to "the child's
lunch we make every day In the
week." Sometimes this question
of school lunches becomes a mil
problem and rn'iter a ninriny prob
lem at that.
Because Susy Jones has hard
boiled cRgs und pickles In her
hi Hell box is sufficient reason to
oi her youngsters for their boxes
to contain the same things. Yet
with mothers that Is anything bntJ
a logical reason. It is difficult to
argue convincingly with small
minds as lo what Is "good for
you" and what Isn't.
To make it Hlmpler for moth
ers, -who huve this as one or (heir
dally ta:;lts. w' are publishing sug
gestions for one week's lunches.
Youngsters are curious and oho
reason for the fascination of the
hard-boiled egg. perhaps. Is the
fact that It isn't an everyday article
of diet. So why not call these
dally lunches the ''wafl and sen
hinchtK. Thla makes Ihe prooiss
of unwrupplng the intknown sand
wiches and sweets it continual sur
prise. We are sure your children
will enjoy this game. Try It.
