In these busy times many of us have added the "lunch box'' to our daily tasks; oth- ers find themselves preparing two or three every day instead of one. The lunch box is an important re- sponsibility â€" on it depends to a large extent the energy and effi- ciency of the school child or war worker. Therefore it must be made both nourishing and attractive. Here are a few suggestions to accompany a thermos of soup, cocoa tea or coffee, on these chilly days.
