synonym for Religious Neglect.

Attention is called by the Church
man to the reaction in Europe to
what is known to us as "the continent
tai Sunday" 1t is certain, says the
Churchman. that the continental peo-
pie. who have for long time maze
Sunday a day of mere toll either in
the service of amusement or industry
are coming to the conclusion that
such a state of things is preiudicial
to the general well being. There is
movement afoot i'm France and in
Belgium to remedy this state of af-
fairs. The continental Sunday is
synonym for religious neglect and
the proclamation of holy day. But
the people on the continent of Europe
are now enrolling themselves in asso-
Citations for the reformation of the
abuse. The "Ligue Populaire pour lie
Repos du Dimanche." is the most in
fluential among numerous societies
which have the same end in view. The
societies include in their number men
of all religious tenets, and are increa-
sing in number and influence every
year. While the avowed object of the
associations is distinctly that of re-
lieving the laboring classes of Sunday
work. If cannot be denied that indi-
rectly the interests of religion will al
so he subserved. Many of these who
do not worship God on Sunday have
now the excuse that they have no OPP
portunity of doing So The eXhorta-
tions of religion will have much more
power when they no longer counsel
Representatives,. In any case, this
movement in Europe seems to us to
convey warning to Americans.
