Friend, proprietor of a Chicago loop clothing store, died at the Evanston hospital at about 4:30 o'clock Monday morning from injuries sus- tained in a collision between his car and another machine driven by Leslie Lane, proprietor of the North Shore Taxi Cab Co. of Glencoe, which had occurred just north of the intersections of Greenwood avenue and Sheridan road, Wilmette. Mr. Lane and Adol- phus Callahan, the Friend family chauffeur, were seriously injured in the crash and are confined to the Evanston hospital. Mrs. Friend and her two daughters, Shirley and Ar- leen, sustained severe cuts and bruises but were able to be taken to their home after receiving medical attention. The Friends were returning to their Chicago home from a visit with friends in Waukegan at the time of the ac- cident and were going south on Sheri- dan road. Mr. Lane was returning to Glencoe from Wilmette accompanied by Don- ald Harry, whom he had procurred as a driver for one of his cabs. At the sharp curve just north of Greenwood avenue both drivers failed to observe the approach of the other's machine until too late to avoid the crash. Both cars were completely wrecked. An inquest into the death of Mr. Friend which was to have been held at the Evanston hospital last Monday, was postponed until February 9 at 2 o'clock.

A. Aldrich speak on "Training the Child's Appetite. Dr. Aldrich first made it plain that he was not in any way dealing with the subject of mal-nutrition, that if the question of hunger and appetite was handled © properly the mal-nutrition would be taken care of. He pointed out that there is almost no information on the subject of hunger and appetite to be found in text books. These two conditions differ, he said, in their origin, in their immediate purpose, and in the factors which influence them. Hunger is a more or less painful sen- sation, located in the vicinity of the stomach, while appetite is a pleasant desire for food, and must not be con- fused with hunger. Hunger has a stimulating effect on appetite, and appetite gratifies hunger contractions and relieves it with food. Dr. Aldrich next touched on the causes and cures for poor appetites in children. They must first be studied from a physical standpoint in order to be sure that there is no approaching illness. A fever will almost always dull a child's appetite, and of course is a forerunner of an approaching illness. If there is no physical cause for a poor appetite, then the psychological and dietary causes must be found. The dietary causes of poor appetite are many. The first of these is eating between meals, or eating the wrong thing between meals. Milk is a very solid food, and Dr. Aldrich disap- proves of the serving of milk between meals at school except in cases where a child does not get enough food or the proper food at home. The second of these causes is the eating of the wrong thing at meal time. as too much solid food, and the third cause is the eating of badly cooked and unappetizingly served food. Another cause is that children like a change of food, as well as do grown- ups, and they must have a variety of menus. Among the psychological causes of poor appetite Dr. Aldrich lists: forcing a child to eat, indulging in the wrong sort of conversation at meals, placing too much emphasis on a child's man- ners, giving him too much entertain- ment at the table, failing to give an older child affection and attention when a new baby comes into the family, too strict disciplining, eating in an unpleasant atmosphere and room, and giving a child the wrong sort of nurse. Dr. Aldrich next outlined a conduct proper for meals, There must, he said, be pleasant sights, words, and sensa- tions, fine food, interesting dishes, and a pleasant room. Adults must be an example for their children in their eating, as this is a most valuable meth- od of educating children along this line. All through his talk, Dr. Aldrich em- phasized the fact that no general rule could apply to all children in the matter of creating an appetite, but that a general technique is being established that will be beneficial to appetite. After Dr. Aldrich's talk, a delicious luncheon was served by the lunch committee of the church. Then Dr. Aldrich very ably answered many difficult questions regarding children and their eating, which again proved him an authority on the feeding, care, and problems of children.
