| Expanded School Hot
! Lunch Program Ended
After Three Months
The winter Hot Lunch Pi'ogram
for school children ended Friday,
I April 1.
The program was greatly ex
panded this year, increasing the
amouftt of food served and serv
ing more children than ever be
fore, the increase being from
about 85 to 130 children served
daily.
The program was also extended
to three full months of lunches, as
compared with two months in
past years. The project this year
was handled by a committee of
interested persons and was sup
ported almost entirely by the peo
ple of Nome through donations of
money, labor, food, oil and ser
vices.
The latter part of the season
some government surplus prod
ucts were received and used, but
it was mainly community help
and interest which kept the lunch
program going.
The addition of sandwiches to
the soup and chocolate was made
possible by the donations of about
200 loaves of bread from local res
idents and by the ladies who gave
their time to make the sand
wiches.
