The Feeding of School Children
by M. E. (Mildred Emily) Bulkley
About the author
Mildred Emily Bulkley was a British social researcher and writer whose published work focused on public welfare and labor conditions. Confirmed works under her name include The Feeding of School Children (1914), The Establishment of Legal Minimum Rates in the Boxmaking Industry under the Trade Boards Act of 1909 (1915), and Bibliographical Survey of Contemporary Sources for the Economic and Social History of the War (1922).
The Feeding of School Children was issued through the Ratan Tata Foundation at the University of London, where the book identifies Miss M. E. Bulkley, B.Sc., as the foundation's secretary. The book shows her interest in how poverty, nutrition, and education affected children's lives, while her other titles point to a wider concern with wages, working conditions, and social policy.
Reliable biographical detail beyond her dates, 1881–1958, is limited in the sources I could confirm here. Even so, her surviving books suggest a careful, research-driven author whose work sits at the meeting point of economics, social history, and public reform.
