PAGE THREB
COUNCIL CALLED
TO MEET EXPERT
The Jackson county council
on Nutrition for Defense met
last evening in the office of the
home demonstration agent,
called by Miss Marian Farrell,
chairman of the nutrition coun
cil, in order that the council
members could discuss the nutri
tion program with Miss Rae
Russell, nutritionist with the
Federal Security agency.
Miss Russell has visited 18 of
the counties in Oregon and a
) number of California to investi
gate the county nutrition pro
grams. From her experiences
elsewhere. Miss Russell made
many valuable suggestions as to
means of improving our county
program.
Miss Russell was much Im
pressed by the fact that of the
40 rural schools in Jackson
county, 32 have a school lunch
program. It is the desire of the
school lunch committee to offer
assistance to the local schools
In improving lunch programs
already operating, and to pro
mote establishment of new
school lunch rooms.
Miss Russell also met with
representatives of the Red Cross
at the home of Mrs. Harry
Holmes.
Miss Russell left Medford this
I morning for Grants Pass to meet
with the Josephine county nu
trition council and then will re
turn to her headquarters in San
Francisco.
