Give the Workers q Chance!
To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
The man or woman who loves liberty of
thought and action certainly enjoys life to its
fullest extent; and yet how few that compare
lively do so, being hampered by public opinion
and of its mot being fashionable" Well does
the writer remember few years ago in Phila-
delphia, when the subject arose of opening the
art gallery and public library on Sunday. At
first, like all new projects, it was regarded as an
innovation; finally it was put to vote and carried
10 have ii open Sundays. Thousands OF work
feel benefited by it, but better class of citizens
has been the result of it. 1t educates them lust
as tine press of today educates the people. My
when Sunday comes they have the. church

to their homes feeling better for what they
have seen and heard and read. 1t is time well
spent, and prohtably. Through the press, then,
must we look TO make this move, to set the
ball in motion. Let the art gallery and library
be open to give TO the working class in this
city treat that they have ever been deprived
OF. Do this and Jou lose nothing by it. Have
sunday concerts if you will, combining it to
sacred music; but above all open the art gal
lery and library on Sunday. The clergy are
with YOU II not all, in part, at least Make the
trial at least, and see what good results will
flow from it. l trust the press will take up the
good work with a will, as is their custom, and
the rest will soon be accomplished
