Kitchens in public schools propose cure for drink problem
Professor J C Monaghan of Wisconsin University argues that cooking education in public schools can curb drunkenness by teaching food properties. He says 75 percent of U S drunkenness stems from food ignorance, driving men to seek stimulants elsewhere. The idea, shared with the South Side Woman's club, spurred a movement to add kitchens to schools under influence of prominent local women.
