will cut down considerably on the overcrowded conditions in the
sanitary buildings serving Booth City.
MEALS:
Meals will be served at the dining hall as they have been
before. However, this year you must purchase a meal ticket. We
have found, in past years, that we have had some difficulty in
meeting costs of food and groceries. Also, there has been a very
great difficulty in the fluctuation of the number eating in the
dining hall at any one given meal. For instance, on some mornings
the dining hall may be serving only a moderate amount of
breakfasts, and then on the very next morning perhaps hundreds of
additional persons show up. This throws the kitchen into a great
deal of turmoil, and there has been a great deal of lack of
preparation for wildly fluctuating attendance at meals. Perhaps
some will eat off and on at the dining hall, perhaps eating every
lunch there but never eating the evening meal, while others will
eat all three meals per day. To solve this problem we are issuing
meal tickets this year.
Meal ticket are going to be sold at the rate of $25.00
per adult. This is calculated on the basis of slightly less than
$1.00 per meal! Brethren, let me stress the fact that NOWHERE can
you eat the fine food we are able to have in our own Tabernacle
dining hall, the clean, pure, unadulterated, healthful food for
such a small price. In past years, we have been able to charge
even a little bit less. However, this year we are going to have to
come a little closer to charging the real cost of the meals. If
you purchase a meal ticket, you should plan to eat ALL your meals
in the dining hall.
Meal tickets for children from six to twelve years,
inclusive, are $15.00. This is calculated at the rate of 60 cents
per meal. Children from six years and under are going to be
allowed to eat free.
You should use the enclosed envelope and send the full
price of your meal tickets for each adult and child as soon as
possible. We have assigned personnel here to take care of your
request, sending your meal ticket to you as soon as we receive your
payment. If a few are unable to get to us in time, then you may
purchase your meal tickets when you register upon entering our
Tabernacle grounds.
Some of you may want to purchase a meal ticket, but may
want to eat out in a restaurant on one or two evenings. You may
wonder what to do in a case such as this. Brethren, it would be
impossible to arrange the purchase of meal tickets any differently.
Therefore, if you plan to miss only a few meals at the Tabernacle
dining hall, you should merely realize that the over-all price is
far less than you would be paying in even cheaper restaurants, and
look upon the loss of these very few meals (if you intend to eat
out at all) as a contribution and donation to others of God's
people.
