Nutrition Inspector
Supervises Feeding Of Thousands Of School Children “Dominion” Special Service.—By Air Mall. London, October 15. TJRITAIN’S Nutrition Inspector No. 1, Miss Edna May Langley, has to eat what her mother tells her at home. She has been chosen out of 120 applicants, both men and women, by the Board of Education, and will supervise the feeding of thousands of schoolchildren all over England and Wales. For the last three years 32-year-old Miss Langley has been organiser of school meals for the London County Council, and, apart from visiting the centres serving meals to London schoolchildren, she drew up schedules upon which all the meals were based. But her mother, a white-haired Yorkshire woman, has no patience with vitamins and calories and proteins. “When Edna May comes home she eats what I give her and no nonsense,” she told an interviewer firmly. “She doesn’t hold with potatoes. But I think they are good for her, so I make her eat them.”
