THE NYSSA GATE CITY JOI RNAL, NYSSA, OREGON PAGE TWO The Gate City Journal FAITH LUTHERAN CHURCH NOTES TED M BRAMMER, Editor and Publisher SUBSCRIPTION NATIONAL NEWSPAPER Published Every Thursday at Nyssa, Malheur County, Oregon Entered at the Post Office at Nyssa, Oregon, for Trans mission through the United States Mails, as a Second Class Matter under the Act of March 3, 1879. CASE HISTORY You mav be interested in a hassle thev had in Port Orchard, Washington a few months back. Officials at the South Katsap High School there let it be known that thev were considering installing a full automated cafeteria. That brought out the populace. The youngsters wouldn’t get balanced meals, they said; the lunch would be cold, and not the needed hot food and, heaven help us, the school would lose its federal lunch room assistance payments. But, the officials went ahead. That federally assisted hot lunch program wasn’t really a howling success anyway, since only about 20 percent of the 1,135 students used the lunch room at noon. It took five cooks to prepare the meals, and even with federal assistance the losses were staggering. So what happened? The school cafeteria looks and operates like an automat. There’s a wide variety of food available, far beyond anything possible under the federally assisted program: hot soup, pastries, ice cream, beverages, hot dogs and hamburgers as well as assorted cold sandwiches, freshly baked cookies and cake, and a daily special. Students pop a coin into a slot and take their choice. Three times as many students use the cafeteria at lunchtime. There’s less waste and spilling in the cafeteria. The official lunch period has been shortened. Two cooks do what five used to do. More important, school officials have found it worth while to keep the cafeteria open most of the day. Many pupils have breakfast in the cafeteria before the school day begins, and many others pop in for between classes snacks. When there are after-school activities, the cafeteria is a meeting place. About the balanced meals -- hear what the school’s prin cipal has to say on that: “You talk about balanced meals. We used to see the pupils eating part of their hot lunch and throwing the rest away. I think everyone likes to pick and choose from a variety. This way, the pupil picks what he likes and doesn’t waste any.’’ Federal assistance? Who needs it? Patronage is up 300 percent without it. - U.S. Press Association. when a fire on May 18 caused THANK FIREMEN the loss of one house and damage We wish to thank the Nyssa to our dwelling. - The Meril- volunteer firemen, our niegh- dean Robbins family. bors and friends for their help ¿4 Stilli NEWS GIFT SUGGESTIONS For The Graduate MERRY mixers Young people of Faith Luth eran church in Nyssa and Grace Lutheran church of Vale, will present the morning service in both churches Sunday morning, May 19.
