School Lunchrooms
Will Furnish Children
ABC’s in Lunches
School children in this county
who have been learning their A B
C’s but not getting them —the val
uable vitamins needed for growing
bodies—are now being provided
with an opportunity to get nour
ishing foods through the school
lunch program, Miss Lurline Col
lier, state home demonstration
agent for the Georgia agricultural
extension service, said this week.
To provide these youngsters
vith at .least one good meal a day,
the agricultural marketing admin
istration .is purchasing surplus
mods that would otherwise go to
waste and turning them over to
school lunchrooms throughout the
country.
All schools and child welfare
jcnters operated without profit
■ire ■ ligible for participation in the
school lunch program. Children
who arc unable to pay the cost of
the meals or who would benefit
nutritionally from the lunches may
be included in the program, Miss
Collier said.
School authorities, P.-T. A.’s,
state and local nutrition commit
tees, Veterans’ organizations and
auxiliaries, civic clubs, or other
community groups can start a
school lunchroom project.
The type of lunch served will
depend on available facilities. City
and larger rural schools having
kitchens may serve complete hot
lunches. Smaller schools can op
erate less ambitious programs such
’s a lunch of one hot dish, or serve
ruits and fruit juices to supple
ment the lunch brought from
home.
Lunches are prepared under the
supervision of local sponsors. In
nany cases, WPA, home economic;
lepartments, home demonstration
groups or the Red Cross supply
socks and other help. Mothers
tubs, P.-T. A., members of spon
soring organizations and nutrition
committees can give assistance
and teachers in rural schools may
prepare the meals with the help oi
Jlder students.
John E. Herndon
Gets Advancement
Advancement came again in the
colorful military career of Maj.
John E. Herndon, formerly of
Gadsden, now officer in charge
of S-4 on the staff of Col. El
mer J. Bowling, post commander,
with the announcement, of his re
cent elevation from captaincy to
the rank of major in the ' Air
Corps.
Born in Lafayette, Ga., Major
Herndon began his military ca
reer back in 1931 when he was com
missioned a second lieutenant in the
cavalry at Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. In
1934 he was raised to the grade of
first lieutenant. A year later he was
detailed to the cavalry school and
there completed the troop officers’
training course. His elevation to
captaincy came in 1938.
Once CMTC Instructor
Included in his wide military
service prior to appointment at
this post, Major Herndon performed
three tours of duty as instructor at
civilian military training camp and
in 1940 fulfilled a one-year tour
of duty as commander of a CCC
camp. It was from this latter as
signment that he was called to
Maxwell Field in July of 1941 to
serve as supply and mess officer.
A few months later he was made
adjutant of the 14th Air Base
Squadron in Montgomery, combin
ing the duties of this asignment
with the dual task of serving as
assistant commandant of the of
ficers’ training school. Shortly
afterward he was advanced to com
manding officer of his squadron.
His association there, however, was
to be very brief for on January 1 Oi
this year he was transferred to post
headquarters and appointed assist
ant post adjutant.
Headed Supplies Branch
Two month later he was advanc
ed to post adjutant and, on July
4, placed in charge of the Air Corps
S-4 supplies branch of the service.
His duties there entail the coordi
nation of procurement, storage and
distribution of all supplies, real
estate, construction and construc
tion funds affecting the progress
and welfare of the post.—Gadsden
