SUNDAY THEATRES

II the Seattle ministers who are endeavorng force the
closing Of all vaudeville theatres in Seattle Sunday would
spend Sunday evening the downtown streets
and note the kind and character of those who aend the Nud
willie houses they might OF tem change their minds
This Sunday closing question is big one, but like all
questions 81 importance IL be solved We must either
determine permit the theatres operate on Sunday or Sc
the repeal OF the law which being violated SO long
these theatres open the Sabbath day
This Star is prepared 10 that is in sympathy
with the ministers That this statement will offensive
many oi ministerial friends do not doubt But as
there sides every question there are two sides
this
There arc thousands people Seattle who do
church and who be legsated church going Many
Of these thousands take advantage OF the holiday that Sunday
gives them and attend the theatre They cannot find con-
venent 10 so on any day night These people there
fore considered the discussion Of this question
Il that it would be more to the point we
would contribute time and energies towards seeing that
nothing offensive. OF degrading is permitted 20 be
shown in the various vaudeville houses With standard OF
which could object there surely could be
little harm in attending the theatre Sunday Without this
high standard would prove just harmful TO attend the
theatres any other day.
We cannot class the theatres with the saloons The one
Is not necessarily harmful The other is whether
il b conducted week day Sunday We confess 20
should be closed every day OF the
week whatever for their existence and
would trouble and worry hunger and want
II forever rid OF them.
But the theatre need 1t helps Jorge, troubles
and worries To OF provides the only amuse
nsrnt we can afford With coming the vaudeville and is
attendant price Of adns'ance thousands 81 who
Unable heretofore theatre have been permitted to
snoy ourselves.
Ia this liberal day and age that enjoyment i more
harmful on Sunday than a week day.
As have already said know that many Of our min
kseria friends will agree with But cannot help
that
The Star ready enlist in the OF the down
trodden and oppressed Il has led many
people has aided wpng real evils that have existed
In midst and has always been truthful II has had the
courage OF its convictions
We regret that cannot agree with our ministerial
friends the OF the Sunday closing OF theatres but
must BE honest with ourselves and with readers.
