Excerpt from Food Lessons for Nutritional Classes
The first class organized for children was held, through the courtesy of the Henry Street Nursing Association, in its local center at the corner of Amsterdam Avenue and 126th Street, New York City. It soon became evident that the Morningside Center needed quarters of its own, and through the support of the Charity Organization Society, it moved to 100 Lawrence Street in January, 1920. Later, the work aroused suffi cient interest to enlist the cooperation of the New York County Chapter of the American Red Cross which was about to undertake a demonstration of Child Health work of various types in the city.
Public School No. 43, whose support the Morningside Center was already enjoying, as most of the children in its classes were coming from there, was the obviously suitable center for an intensive nutrition program. The cooperation, not only of the school principal and teachers but also of the Department of Health of New York City, and the Departments of Household Arts Education, and of Nursing and Health of Teachers College, was readily secured, and the Red Cross furnished a full-time nutrition worker for the Morningside Center. It soon became evident that the work for the children could be done more effectively in the school itself; consequently, in January, 1921, the rooms at 100 Lawrence Street were given up, the Charity Organization Society ceased its financial aid, and the work was transferred to the school, the Red Cross adding a second nutrition worker and establishing a dental clinic.
The work in the school with from 150 to 175 children at a time in special nutrition classes has now gone on steadily for a year. A new group has been chosen each half year for this intensive work. Each class contains from twelve to eighteen children and is taught by a student of nutrition at Teachers College, under the supervision of the author, so far as the lessons are concerned, and under the immediate direction of the two nutrition workers at the school, one of whom has super vised the home visiting done in connection with the classes since Miss Winslow's departure for London in September, 1921.

Mary Swartz Rose was an American laboratory scientist and educator in the fields of nutrition and dietetics. She was also the founder of and the fifth President and first woman President of the American Institute of Nutrition.
Background
Mary Swartz Rose was born in Newark, Ohio. She was the oldest of the three daughters and two sons of Martha Jane (Davies) Swartz, a teacher, whose parents had emigrated from Wales in 1840, and Hiram Buel Swartz, whose mother and father were natives of Ohio and Pennsylvania respectively. A graduate of the University of Michigan, Swartz was a lawyer who served two terms as mayor of Wooster, Ohio, and later was elected probate judge of Wayne County.
Education
Mary Swartz graduated as valedictorian of her class in the Wooster high school in 1892. For the next nine years she alternated study at Shepardson College (later part of Denison University) and the College of Wooster with teaching at the Wooster high school. She received a Litt. B. degree from Shepardson in 1901 and the next year earned a diploma in domestic science from the Mechanics' Institute in Rochester, N. Y. In 1905 she entered Teachers College, Columbia University, receiving a B. S. degree in 1906. Later she went to Yale for graduate study in physiological chemistry under Prof. Lafayette B. Mendel. There she was elected to Sigma Xi, the first woman so honored at Yale. In 1909 she received her Ph. D. with a thesis on the carbohydrates of lichens and algae.
Career
Rose taught high school home economics from 1902 to 1905 in Fond du Lac, Wi. Later she was an assistant at Teachers College for one year. In 1909 Mary Swartz returned to Teachers College to become its first full-time instructor in nutrition and dietetics.
Rising through the academic ranks, Mrs. Rose was appointed in 1923 to a professorship of nutrition, possibly the first such post in an American university. At Columbia she worked closely with the nutritional chemist Henry C. Sherman, and her department became an outstanding center for teaching the scientific principles of nutrition and dietetics and for training future teachers of the subject.
Her own research included work on the body's utilization of food materials, the relation of diet to the health and growth of children in institutions, the nutritional role of certain trace elements, the influence of nutrients on anemia, comparison of the proteins from milk and meat, hemoglobin regeneration in rats, and the vitamin content of foods.
Long active on the editorial board of the Journal of Nutrition, she contributed frequently to it, as well as to the Journal of Biological Chemistry, Journal of Home Economics, Journal of the American Dietetic Association, and others. Mrs. Rose's A Laboratory Hand-book for Dietetics, which proved of value to countless laboratory students, first appeared in 1912. She also wrote several books in which she applied the findings of the nutrition laboratory to people's everyday lives.
In Feeding the Family (1916), considered by many to be a classic in its field, she recalculated tables of food composition to fit ordinary recipes and foods as eaten, putting the chemical aspects of nutrition in terms a homemaker could understand and use. The fourth edition was completed the year before her death. Everyday Foods in War Time was published in 1918. The Foundations of Nutrition, a well-known text and reference book, appeared in 1927, with revisions in 1933 and 1938; former colleagues have since produced three more editions, the latest in 1966. Results of studies which Mrs. Rose and some of her advanced students conducted on nutrition education in the elementary grades were published in Teaching Nutrition to Boys and Girls (1932). She also wrote many Teachers College bulletins.
During 1918-19 Mary Swartz Rose served as deputy director for New York City of the wartime Bureau of Food Conservation, set up under state and federal auspices. From 1933 until her death she was a member of the Council on Foods and Nutrition of the American Medical Association. She was a member of the nutrition committee set up by the Health Organization of the League of Nations in 1935. The many scientific organizations to which she belonged included the American Society of Biological Chemists, the American Public Health Association, and the American Physiological Society. She was made a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and an honorary member of the American Dietetic Association.
A founder of the American Institute of Nutrition, she served as its president in 1937-38. Since 1949 the Mary Swartz Rose Fellowship, financed by the Nutrition Foundation and administered by the American Dietetic Association, has been granted annually for graduate study in nutrition and allied fields. A small woman, about five feet tall and weighing barely one hundred pounds, Mary Rose made many of her clothes and trimmed her own hats. A colleague recalled that she "loved those things which added to the gaiety of living", flowers, music, parties, something new for her home. Mrs. Rose retired from active service at Columbia on July 1, 1940; she died of cancer at her Edgewater, N. J. , home seven months later.
Achievements
Rose was famous both as an educator and as a laboratory scientist, as the titles of her works show. She was a prolific author, and wrote both scientific and technical works and pamphlets designed to educate ordinary citizens in the consequences of scientific advances on food selection, preparation, and nutritional planning. Rose worked associated with Herbert Hoover during the years of World War I, produced scientific recipes and balanced menus for the military, and played a part in the development of Army rations.
Member of the Council on Foods and Nutrition of the American Medical Association
Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science
Member of the American Dietetic Association
Connections
On September 15, 1910, Rose was married to Anton Richard Rose, who had been a fellow graduate student at Yale. He later became chief chemist for the Prudential Insurance Company. Their only child, Richard Collin Rose, was born in 1915.
