can the church best promote the Observance
of the sabbath"
The church represents all those who are re.
lated to Christ and not q particular organiza-
0on. Sabbath Observance Is the duty OF all
church mem aers, not collectively but per-
DOnally. But what is meant by conservation
of the Sabbath:" We ind the answer not in
the conduct OF men, but IN the law of God.
The sanctity of the Sabbath extends TO the
distribution Of the labors OF the Week as well
~ to cessation from all labor on that day.
Proper observance OF the SABBATH is not
simply resting from labor, which Is the civil
sabbath, but Is = religious action, leading 10
religious ends The means to secure these

II ID the business OF the church TO impart
this knowledge, using family training, Sab
bath schools, the press, &C. TO do her WORK

The religious press should aid this cause
but the papers often read contain such things
