The Tennessee Supreme Court has
declared the Sunday barber law pass
ed by the last Legislature unconstitu.
tional. The BARRIERS clamored for this
law until it was passed. No sooner
was this done, however, than they
began making strenuous efforts to
nullify it. There was never any ne
cessity for the law, rs BARRIERS are in
dictable under the common law for
keeping their shops open on Sunday,
but as barber shops are as much of Il
necessary convenience on Sunday as
hotels or restaurants, public senti-
mentis opposed to enforcing the law
against them.
