The Bulletin. 



The school lunch should have three characteristics, appetizing, nourishing, 

 and easily digested. A normal child of school age requires considerable 

 food to meet the demands of up-keep and growth, so a school lunch should 

 be sufficiently appetizing to induce him to eat freely. It should be composed 

 of the things that will satisfy the hunger of a robust child, and at the same 

 time be so easily digested as to permit the child to study in the afternoon 

 rather than to be put to sleep from the effects of the lunch. 



In preparing the school lunch avoid all soggy foods, all fried meats, unless 

 a small quantity of well fried breakfast bacon may be permissible. Good 

 bread and biscuits, boiled eggs, chicken and fresh meats, butter, sandwiches, 

 ripe fruit, salted peanuts or other nuts, plain cakes and a bottle of fresh 

 milk are sufficient to draw from and will supply the requirements of almost 

 any school child. Sandwiches may be made from home grown vegetables 

 with or without mayonnaise dressing as the child may prefer. The lunch 

 should be put up in a neat basket or bucket and never in a pasteboard box. 

 The latter is not as sanitary as the basket or bucket. 



The basis of award will be as follows: 



Neatness in packing 30% 



Suitability of food to purpose 40% 



Suitability of food to season 30% 



In judging bread the following score card will be used: Flavor, 3-5 

 points; crust— color, depth, texture, 20 points; lightness, 15 points; grain 

 and texture, 10 points; crumb — color and moisture, 10 points; shape and 

 size, 10 points. Size recommended, 71/3x31/2x2% inches. 



No award will be given for bread scoring less than 75 points, nor for 

 school lunches scoring less than 70 points.
