country church In New-Iiaven, Conn.,, started the
idea of local unions about four years ago. To-day

in every church Of an association OF young people
who are prepared to make certain pledges regarding

the eyes of the minister. Junior branches OF the
socetv although only recently started, are already
numerous and are rapidly multiplying. Mr.. Boyn-

Mrs. Emma p Ewings lectures domestic econ
omy have induced representatives OF tne woman
Christian Temperance Union to contemplate applying
her methods in lunch-Iooms OF the Union In large
cities and this afternoon an Informal consultation
was held. Mrs Ewing lectured to-day on Kitchen
Interests She cited statistics TO show the enor-
nous annual consumption OF food products In the
United States In the average household, MIS-
Ewing thinks too much attention Is given 10 the
parlor and too little to the kitchen. The htcnen
should be clcanly and well ventia ed, since pure air
is essential the preparation of pure food, ana the
anahl M
pairing food properly she considers Injurious as well
false.
