GOLF ON SUNDAY.
Women ArraiSncd fop Playing the
Game on That Day.

NEW YORK. Oct 23--'Women who
have hitherto remained apart from open
and aggressive Sabbath breaking are, it
is to be regretted. being drawn into the
net OF the tempter and for reasons of
amiability, perhaps, or on the score of
health, are yielding all which has hitherto
made them strong,
Once woman comedies her principles
and plays golf in the field with her kus-
band. brother, or sweetheart on Gods day
she has forever lost a subtle and power
ful conservative influence which wrought
in the lives of men for good She has
gone over to the enemy. They will hence
forward question her sincerity when she
stands up fer any phase OF religious ef-
fort. a woman who plays golf on Sun
day once for all ranges herself in the
company of those who recognize no duty
toward the day itself, toward the commu-
nifty il preserving its traditional sacred
ness, and toward God, who enjoined rest
and worship on the Lords day.
III golf why not tennis? Why not has
ketball? Why not the Sunday drive. the
Sunday reception, the Sunday dinner, the
| Sunday evening opera?
The woman who lets downs the bars
by playing golf in the country need not
expect to raise them again on her return
to the city-need not ask higher morali-
ty in her sons and brothers than she ex-
empliIes in her own person.
This is part of what the Woman's Ma
tionaI Sabbath Alliance has to say against
! Sunday golf in a pamphlet which the or
/ ganiZation has just issued. Mrs. Marga-
| ret E. Sangster is its author.
! At yesterdays meeting of the society,
! held at its headquarters in tie Presbyte-
/ Tiap Building, it was reported that this
/ pamphlet had already been widely diStrib-
uted through the eighteen branches of the
! Sabbath Alliance which exist in various
| parts OF the country. 1t was also an
! nounced that this, the latest of the So
! ciety's efforts against Sabbath breaking
/ has already borne fruit in Greenwich
| Conn, where the eighteenth branch of the
alliance has just been formed. In Green
| wich it was said, the Catholic priest has
promised to keep his boys from acting as
caddies for Sunday golf
THE caddies, who are so useful, have
! their lives before them" the pamphlet
| goes on TO say. Are VIC willing to take
| the responsibility of actually training
them to break the Sabbath; actually urg-
! ing them to, and paying them to commit
| the sin?''
| OF the class of persons who indulge In
| Sunday golf this statement is made:
Our hurrying crowds tearing through
peaceful villages on cars and On their
| wheels in pursuit of recreation are not
keeping holy or whole the day of rest.
''But for some of these weary and igno-
| rant people, when they belong to the un-
| taught and superstitious classes of the Old
| World there is the shadow of an excuse
/ the vestige of an apology. They have nc
| Puritan background have no traditions o.
the church spire, OF the common school
and of family prayer. Not from them, tu
to our shame be it said-from widely
| different class, come the people who are
+! violating the Lords day by playing golf.
