The Mess ... |
The recent editorial requesting vets to turn in suggestions was, to
say the least, a flop. There have been about six such notes to date.
Most of these came from Duncan Hall. Here are a few:
W.C.S. asked “why the same item cost different prices at differ
ent meals.” We checked the dates given and found that there was no
difference. Undoubtedly this was a checker’s mistake. CHECK YOUR
SLIPS AND TAKE THEM BACK IF THEY ARE WRONG. Anyone
can make a mistake. The prices are displayed so that you can do this.
H.O.H. said that “he was charged extra for sugar which he asked
for on his cereal instead of in his coffee.” There is no charge for
sugar, but it is RATIONED.
There is a tentative plan to put in a snack bar instead of one of
the lines at noon and possibly supper. This line would serve sand
wiches, salads, chili, and drinks for those who do not want a full meal.
Let us know what you think of this idea.
Men, let us hear from you, and you will hear from us with action.
The Mess Committee.
