After various public hearings the Wel- | fare Committee of the Board of Alder- men reported favorably and an ordi- nance was drafted; but early in April |it was found tbat the Board of Alder- men under the new education law had not the power to create a bureau of |penny lunches and that the matter was only within the jurisdiction of the Board of Education. The latter appointed a committes to investigate the subject. Mrs. Emma L. Murray is Chairman of that com- mittee, \ Since January I had several confer- ences with President Somers and last June he agreed that if the money could be secured from the Board of| Aldermen he would be willing to have the Board of Education take the mat. | |ter over, but was waiting the report of his committee. | At that time a canvass was made| by this newspaper of the Board of Al-| dermen and it was found that there | was hardly a dissenting vote, begin. ning with President Smith, to pi favorably on this measure. { ‘The war and the high cost of living |nave accentuated the conditions since me, and it is most likel: ard of Aldermen will bi opinion or perhaps mc vor of granting the am asked. ‘The present move is most significant |in view of the importance of securing Junder the certainty of munic jtrol a lunch service in the schools at jcost and that no child may be pau- | perized. | Thus children who come from |poor homies as well ao children who ome from environments of plenty may be given an opportunity to se- |cure well cooked food in their echool | building and on democratic basi It was found last year by the I |partment of Health that 10 per of the number of scaool chile proximate- malnourished.

The furnishing of one nourishing meal a day to school children who |for various reasons, of which poverty is the principal one, do not secure suc a meal, will tend to eliminate this alarming condition. Besides there are children of mothers who, through the war, are called into industrial life in| place of those who have gone to tho front, Such children are neglected in the matter of food. ‘The school lunch hae been extended during the war in many European With Every Purehw: of 875 COLUMBUS AVE BET.103 & 1O4"ST “AM “Lost and Found’ ‘edvertised in The Wor) to “Lost and Found Bi 108, World Building, wi for thirty days. left at any of The World's . or can bo The Worlds THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER i1, 1918, EVENING WORLD'S FIGHT WON - SCHOOL BOARD WILL SERVE countries, such as England, France, Ttaly, Spain and Switzerland. These countries have accepted the feeding oi school children as a municipal respon- sibility. Although the movement for school lunches in this country fas been slower, already the work is progress- ing in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Rochester. All of the foremost au thorities adopt the principle that Jonnie Doe cannot take his educa- tional meal unless bis physical weil being is attended to. In view of the fact that the school board spends approximately $40,000,000 annually for educational purposes, ihe sum needed to insure the child from hunger during the school hours is small in eomparison.

Frederick Cushman, Mothers! - As the official family comforter, whether to babies or soldier sons, t you want to learn at once what a wonderful preparation is Kora-Konia. ) Mothers, doctors and nurses who have tried it on babies for diaper rash and teething rash say it ie almost miraculous in the way it soothes and quickly heals the raw, inflamed baby skin. The remarkable thing about Kora-Konia is that it doesn’t wash away quickly, as it is waterproof and clings to the skin fo. hours, prevent- ing chafing from the friction of damp cov Thousands of soldiers and civilian war-workers say that Kora-Konia robs chafing of all its terrors. Every new soldier, fresh from soft. civilian life, needs a box of Kora-Konia in his kit. Nothing you can give him will mean so much in relief from the chaf- ing caused by constant exercise in army underwear and uniforms. The first days are the hardest, so buy him a box before he goes to camp. Poor Service Will Harm Basiness.
