and that this record be preserved In some
appropriate manner, and that the ceremo-
nies of decoration bo made more impress

stances Of the Observance Of IL by the an
cient Hebrews. II was not a day appoint
81 by God for the Jews alone, bot all ma
iions were to be benefited by il. Neither
was IL, as some people argued, day for
amusement, but for hearing and studying
Gods holy word and ins,ruciing our fam
lilies In spiritual things. He spoke Of the
dcsecration of the Sabbath in large cities /;
how stores are kept open in some quarters
and business carried on a. on week days.
lie dwslt with particular emphasis on the
running of the cars, and furnaces being in
full blast, thus preventing the employees
from enjoying that day Of religious rest
wbich God intended and expressly com.
manded they should have. Speaking of
the neglect Of the day leading people into
crime, he repeated parts Of a conversation
he had, AT one time, held with a policeman
of New York, who told him that extra
preparations were made at the police sta
tions and at the hospitals for such as were
hurt on the Sabbath, transgressions Of the
Law being most frequent in that city on
that day.
