In seeking contributions of books,
ihe quality of the books ather than

pride in doing it. They have a pride in the equipment
with which they work. There are giant powerhouses
in the mountains, a vast network of interconnected
transmission lines and distribution lines, together with
‘substations, trucks and tools. All these are geared to
take on the increasing demands for more power for
war production purposes.
California can be confident these men will keep the

reserves will respond promptly if they are called upon.

Careful Fecding of
School Children Urged
BERKELEY — In improving national nutrition the easiest and most
efective way is to better the feeding
of school children, according to. Dr.
Agnes Fay Morgan, chairman of the
home economics department on the
Berkeley campus of the University
of California.
“The traditional school lunch has
been demonstrated in many communities and for.-many years to produce
improvement in the growth, health,
school attendance, mieerettne and
learning of many children,’ she reminded. ;
‘Success in raising the nutritional’
level of children may be foreseen, . '
Dr. Morgan pointed out, if attention
is given to the problem during the
school years, when food needs are.
most exacting and when nearly all
School-health services should apply
physical examination methods to
screen out the most. nutritionally
needy children, regardless of ‘the
economic level of the homes from
which they come, Dr. Morgan advised.
