These foreigners. as vou know, come from almost every countr on the face of the earth, and are fasi getting control of all branches of in- dustry and politics. They usually come from countries that have little or no respect for Sunday as a day of rest and worship: in fact, many of them are entirely ignorant of the -first prin- ciples of Christianity: and having been accustomted to liberal observance, or none at ail. they are naturally some- what surprissd to notice the difference after they arrive here, and they want to know why. They are told. of course, that this is a Christian country, that we do not believe it is right to work on Sunday, that w2 devote that day to the religious exerciszs of our various churches. and spend the time in r liglous meditations and teaching, works of merey, charity, etc. That is what they are probably told, but when they see our legisiators making laws to controvert this very idea they are very quick to notice it, with the result that they soon fall into the accustom- ed ways of their homeland, entirely ig- noring our own customs and manners. Tn other words, they bring thei toms and habits with them, and retain them. There is_ still another phase of this relative side of the subject: This na- tion is founded on the principles of Christianity: each state is founded on the same principles. The personal pursuits and pleasures of the individ- ual are subservient to the need of the nation, and if this country thing at the present time it is a higher moral plane of living. and it ecannot start with a better class of people th those who would observe the Lord's day as such. or it cannot start in a beiter way than by a closer observ- ance of that day. Webster has said: “If the United States secularized het acrad day she would not endure 2 hundred years.” Now, as you know. there are certain forces 'at work to liberalize our Sun- day, and you well know that our Sun- day of the present time is drifting away from the standard originally maintained. and it will continue to develop and grow worse just so long observance is permitted. you Is your personal influence ex- sich a manner as will dis- courage things of this kind?
