This school, as may be seen from the picture, is a typicjal 

 Missouri school, and it would be possible as well as practical 

 for the girls in other schools of the State to receive the same 

 training as the girls of Camp Branch are receiving. The patrons 

 of this school are especially fortunate in having a teacher of 

 exceptional ability, Miss Julia Sullivan. The success of the work 

 is largely due to her untiring interest in the girls. Superintendent 



T. R. Luckett is also responsible for the 

 excellent results obtained in the school. 

 Through his efforts the State Board of 

 Agriculture assisted in planning the equip-

 on methods of preparing hot lunches 

 for the entire school. In the accom-

 preparing potato soup. This simple, whole- 

 some food is to be served in connection 

 with the lunches brought from home. 



Few parents realize how cold and 

 unappetizing the average school lunch 

 really is. In some rural schools the lunches
