Image not available

Description: "Simple, clean, wholesome food of the right kinds fed to children in proper quantities and combinations will go farther than almost any other single factor in assuring them normal health and sturdy development. The principles that should govern the choice of food for children between 3 and 10 years of age and specific suggestions for meals made up of such foods are set forth in this bulletin. Meals for children should be served attractively, as the illustrations suggest, to inculcate a sense of neatness and order."
