UNION (Special) The Sunday
mcrnlng services at the Methodist
church were conducted by Rev. B. C.
Lee assisted by Leonard Clark, who
took cnarge or tne preliminary wum.
In his sermon Mr. Lee linked up
the present, bi-centcnnlal celebration
of Washington's birthday with the
eimilar celebration that will be held
for tho Methodist church in four
more vcars. He compared the
changes that had taken place in
th 00 years since a handful of
devout men met in London and
started a world Methodism move-,
ment. But he remarked that he was;
compelled to ask the question as to :
whether the country had advanced
so very far when every newspaper dls- :
closed such an appalling amount of;
crime. At tho close of his sermon he ;
spolte briefly on the rules of the i
church and urged every family to
supply itself with a copy of the
church doctrines. ,
An important meeting of the offi- ;
cial beard of the Methodist church ;
has been called and will be held at i
the home of Mrs. Bell Wright Wed- ,
nesday evening. The Ladies' Aid i
meeting will be hclc' at the home of
Mrs. Carl Eddy Wednesday afternoon. I
Attention was caiied Sunday to the '

At home Betty always ate poorly.
Unless her mother sat with her
through every meal and urged everv
mouthful, she ate virtually nothing
when Betty went to spend a few
weeks with her aunt, her mother
was afraid that without her supervi
sion she would surely starve. For
this reason she ordered sent for her
use several boxes of figs, dates and
raisins foods which Betty usuallr
consented to eat with a minimum of
coaxing.
But at her aunt's house, surround
ed by hungry little cousins, Betty
ate everything that was set before
her. Only when she was given a
dish of dates with the statement
that mother had sent them especial
ly for her did she refuse to eat.
It required only the mention oi
mother in connection with the eat
ing situation to call up In Betty all
the negative attitudes which ha
long been habitual with her. Mother
had always tried to force her to eat
and always she had resisted. The
fact that mother had sent the dates
reminded Betty that she must not
eat them. -
That this really was the basis of
her refusal was made clear by the
fact that when, a few days later,
they were again served to ler, and
this time without comment of any
sort, she ate them promptly and
with evident enjoyment.
Tho Incident demonstrates how
completely conditioned the eating
habits of children may be by their
parents attitudes toward the eating
situation.
It suggests once more how neces
eary It is to pet the child's food he
fore him In a matter of fact way,
to refrain from coaxing, and to re
move what he does not cat without
comment.
