APPLE A DAY
DISTRIBUTION TO SCHOOL CHILDREN. Over fifty cases of apples are being distributed every week to schools in Masterton and district under the Government's scheme to supply every child attending primary school with an apple a day. It is stated that the children are very keen to have the apples and refusals are almost unknown. At one Masterton. school the practice has been adopted of eating the apples in school, so that the cores can be collected and disposed of. thus obviating the possibility of the cores being scattered round the neighbourhood of the school. Schools in. country areas also participate in the distribution. In addition to the apples, each child is allotted half a pint of milk daily
