The very young school child can often be relnterested in. the lunch proposition with new dinneiware. Good colors or amusing patterns like the Mclamac "Oopsi" set can be a help. One steady favorite of the eai-at-home set is hamburger. It is frequently the one food mother can depend upon to appeal to a gang of kids in wide disagreement on , other foods.

Many mothers of older kids work outside the home and rely on their kids to fix their own lunch at home. For families in this category, sim plicity add pre-fixlng are im portant. Many dishes can be made and stored in the refrigerator the night before. Many canned foods can be placed on the counter to be opened and heated by the youngsters. In finding foods that are appeal ing for kids to fix, mixtures are a help.

If the foods offered seem moderate, balanced and nourishing, lh- children will probably get a decent lunch. If not, a lunch box lunch may be a better solution. Mothers of the lunch-pail toting set have one great problem. A gummy vacuum bottle left shot up over the weekend produces some thing that can only be described as revolting when H' opened to tntall Monday's lunch.

Library Gives You Volumes Of Real Service V.1ut do you know about your public library? The serage American library does a lot more than lend books. The day of the musty bookroom with its prim mlMress of the shelves is lading into lV:e pa.si. Today's library is coming into Its own after generations of service as "that old marble mausoleum." Alert librarians today look on their collections as centers of com munity information. They are reaching out into their commu nities to establish a real appreci ation for literature' and learning. Here are some of the ways the library is serving. When young Johnny begins his school career, the library starts its job. Wherever facilities' permit, en tire classes are urged to come in groups to the library. There they are introduced to the world of books. Many larger libraries start with preschool children. They conduct programs with picture books for the tots, while their mothers In vestigate volumes on child care and housekeeping. And the library sticks with Its young readers from infancy right into their adult life. They are graduated from picture books to the "story iiuur" to the teen-age shelves. But the library doesn't forget special problems. Its service to sickbeds includes visits to hospital wards and mailings to shut-Ins In many locales. For the seriously bedridden, new machines project the pages of books on ceilings. .. TEACH TRAVEL FACTS, Does your youngster, Just de parting for college, know what to do If set down In a strange city? No need to humiliate him with mother-henning, but be sure be knows about wiring for money, traveller's aid. the Y or friends in the city. : ) Cll V" v .'

(Luggage and Leather Mfrs.l Watch Gifts Good Anytime Example of faulty timing: Giving Junior his first good watch on the day of his graduation. If you reBlly want to be thought ful, you will give him the present now, at the time when he actually needs it. Today's average high school or college Is forced to run on a sched ule as tight as that of a radio station. Time has become as im portant as erasers, blackboards and pencils. And if Junior is late to class he is almost sure to be penalized. The watch he wears to, school does not have to be expensive, but it does have to be dependable. 8tyl ing, of course, is a matter of taste. "But be sure that the model you choose is shock-resistant and waterproof, with a new "unbreak able'' mainspring. For a child who Is still in gram mar school, glamorous cases and fragile bands nro usually best avoided. Look Instead for strength. Hands should be large and sturdy, numerals clear and Aharp. . Another excellent gilt, for stu dents who live at college, is a small, modern alarm clock. Many attractive new models have lumi nous hands and hour dots and dur able plastic cases. But before you Iinally buy, oe sure to test tha alarm ring. If it's loud and long. it s perfect. If It's short and purry, forget It. NOTE FOR PARENTS Children and toddlers don't for get on purpose. Tney Just get interested in something else in the very new and wide world. For this reason, the surest way to convey a message to the teacher Is to pin it on the child. ACADEMIC PAPER ROUTE A paper route Is pretty tradition al. Now many high school and college students are the nearby paper's "representatives." They deliver the paper within the safe confines of a school building.
