For about a year I have been Pained to see workers building cottages on Sunday and to hear their loud hammering. Let none imagine I am al on the subject. I admit that charity or necessity will permit servile work on the Sab- bath. e. g an urgent medical operation, firemen answering the alarm for a fire, when the plaster falls down, say in church, re- moving the debris, erecting beams to support frame walis or bar- ricading the windows when the weather department announces that a tropical hurricane is ap- proaching, etc. Let decent people unite in pro- moting the observance of the Sunday for the glory of God and the good of man’s soul and body.
