This newspaper, we believe you will
agree, has always been generous in allocat
ing space to the celebration of all manner
of "weeks" from National Pickle Week to
Employ the Handicapped Week.
Therefore, we feel we should be forgiven
for a small toot on our own horn in be
half of National Newspaper Week, which
this year is being celebrated during the
October 13 to October 19 period.
There could not be a more fitting slogan
than the one chosen tor 1963, It is: "News
papers Make a Big Difference in People’s
Lives."
Tin Bueket Lun ekes
A good many Chattooga Countians
probably remember taking their school
lunches in a bucket.
It’s a good thing to recall those days
this week because this is “National School
Lunch Week"- a time to call attention to
the economical hot lunches now available
at the schoolhouses.
For many children, this is perhaps the
best meal of their day.
The Chattooga school system has re
cently taken a big step toward improving
its entire lunchroom program. A lunch-

more complete than the average person
perhaps realizes.
The Trion system also offers a hot lunch
program, aimed at giving the student a
nutritious, economical and tasty meal.
We are glad tin bucket lunches are no
longer necessary and that in their stead
we have this excellent program.

Students Can Get Hot
Lunches for Only 25c
The Chattooga County school system has an especially
good reason to observe "National School Lunch Week" this
week—it is in the midst of re-organizing its school lunch
program.
A lunchroom supervisor for the
county. Mrs. Alvis Copeland, lias
been hired to work on this proj
ect.
By the first of the year, she
hopes to have uniform menus
throughout the county and to
handle all grocery buying on a
bid basis She will also announce
menus in The News
Tn the meantime, she is re
organizlng the system of record
keeping, taking over much of
the chore previously done by the
principals and the school super
intendent's secretary.
Although each school has its
own account, she pays all bills.
School Supt. James Spence
and the Chattooga Board of
Education have pointed out they
believe that when the lunch- j
room re-organization is com-;
pleted, better meals, more effi
ciency and more economy will
result.
In addition, the principals are
being relieved of most of the
record-keeping, giving them
more time to running the school
and or teaching By relieving
the superintendent's secretary,
the hiring of additional help in
the superintendent's office is not
now necessary

agers of the county system are

Coffee Break
By HELEN BUFFINGTON
Isn’t this a lovely time of year? And no place is
more lovely in the autumn than our own Chattooga
County. It really doesn’t matter in which direction
you go from Summerville, you will be greeted with neat
valleys against a backdrop of colorful mountains or
ridges. The mountains encompass us almost com
pletely.
Just as a steeple or spire on a church can be up
lifting, so can these majestic ranges.
When most of us were children, “the fair” meant
the merry-go-round and candied apples on a stick.
Going through the exhibit buildings with the adults
was just so much time wasted. But what with all the
model autos, gaily glazed roosters and other “hobby
items” such as those shown at the Chattooga County
Fair this year, the kiddies seemed to enjoy seeing the
exhibits almost as much as they did the midway.
Household hint: The wax paper that comes around
saltine crackers makes excellent paper for wrapping
sandwiches. It’s just about the right size and heavily
waxed.
Most of us have heard tales of children getting
lost from their mothers in a grocery store or some such
place. But the episode Tuesday afternoon involving
County School Supt. James Spence’s first grader, Bill,
just about beats them all. Bill caught the school bus
home, forgetting that his mommy had told him to stay
at school because she was coming to the P.-T A. meet
ing there. A neighbor, who was on her way to the
school to pick up her child, carried Bill back to the
school, with her. He got out, walked into the P.-T.A.
meeting and took a seat. His father and mother, sit
ting in separate places at the meeting, both saw him
and he apparently saw his father. But a few minutes
later, Bill got up and walked out. The parents thought
he was “returning” to the P.-T. A. nursery. But when
P.-T. A. was over. Bill was not to be found. The entire
campus was searched. Nearby homes were checked to
see if Bill had decided to go visiting. Still no Bill. Fi
nally, Mrs. Spencte decided to go home, thinking that
maybe her adventuresome son had decided to catch a
ride home with some neighbor—she knew he had been
at school during P.-T. A. because she had seen him.
Sure enough, as she arrived, Bill ran out from the
neighbor’s house. The lad had simply found the neigh
bor’s car still on hand when he left the P.-T.A. meeting
and had got in and gone back with her.
We invite you to take a break each week and visit
with us in this little column of miscellany. Your ideas
and suggestions will be appreciated.

About 700
Meals a Dav
The Trion school system offers
I hot lunches to all students and
serves over 700 a day.
Mrs. Marvin Tucker is lunch
room manager.
The meals are 25c and include
1 a half pint of milk. In addition
to the milk that comes with the
. plate, any student may have an
extra half pint for three cents,
or 15c a week
The kitchen and cafeteria are
located in the Trion Elementary
School building and it serves
both the elementary students
i and the high school students
who attend classes across the
street.
In addition, meals are taken
to Westside School where they
are served in the lunchroom
there. Westside has a small
kitchen but it has been found
more economical to cook all the
meals at one place, points out
School Supt. A. J. Strickland.
Mrs Mildred Starr is in charge
of the Westside program.
Overall participation in the
Trion system is about 65 to 70
per cent.

Dry Valley community. The oddity is among the flock
he is raising for his own use and he says he’s never seen
another like it. The chicken is four months old and
