Four Thousand
School Lunches
Served In 1945*46
Approximately 4,000 Kershaw couar
ty school children received their
midday meal under the 1945-46 school
lunch program superrisor released
this Week.
The total ezpenditore tor tha lunch
program waa shout 890,0M, approxi
mately one-half of which was fi
nished by the federal government
The remainder of the money came
from appropriationa by the state,
county, school districts, and local oT'
ganisations together with Income
from sale of Innchee.
Thirty-eight schools in the county
participated id the lunch prograat A
major effort was made during the
year to secnre adequate modem equip
ment to facilitate preparation of the
lunches in each of theae schools.
Ranges, hot water tanks, three com
partment sinks and refrigerators were
some of the things that have been
added. Snrplns government property'
baa been made available to the schools
to famish thair kitchens.
Plans have already hem completed
for the operation of the lunch pro
gram for the coming year. The coun
ty anperrisor last month attended a
week’s conference at Winthrop Col-
lege togethi with all the other coun
ty supervisors and state officials of
tha program. This week a contingent
of lunch room workers are undergo
ing the latest methods in the prepara
tion and aenrlce of school lunches.
Another training class will be held
in the county.
Improvements are being made in
the lunch rooms by enlarging thair
lunch rooms, prorldlm adeqoata
stove. Installing electricity and adding
a coat of paint.
The average cost per Innch to the
tndtridaal pupil will probably be
slightly higher next year, acoordtng
to an announcement iff W. H. €hmr9-
eott, Btate director of the program.

Two aulqne percel features permit
