LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR
Longs for Sunday Under Socialism.

/ Editor, Barre Daily Times: The gen
eral observance of Sunday would be a
blessing to all wage earners, while the
open Sunday would be curse to the
human race The most emphatic of the
Commandments, which is, Remember
thou keep holy the SABBATH day forbids
all unnecessary serviIe work and what
ever else may hinder the due observance
of the Lords day. This is one of the
greatest proofs that God loved man.
The only one of the United States
that has no Sunday laws, California, IA
now demanding from the Legislature such
laws. The American Federation OF
Labor, representing millions of working
men and women, has emphatically de-
clared itself in favor of the Sunday rest
day, and 1t has done as much, if not
more, than any other organized body OF
men and women to enforce the obsery
ance of the Sunday rest day.
There is absolutely no reason under
the sun for an open Sunday, but the
avaricious selfshness and capitalstie
greed in the heart OF man for oppression
and exploitation. Ii Sabbath OF sacred
rest is a priceless boon to any class, it
is to the sons OF toll. "0f all the classes
of human society, it is the working man
to whom the religious SABBATH is most
precious. His toll makes the day Of re-
pose doubly sweet. His scanty means OF
improvement makes one day in seven of
inestimable value, for the cultivation OF
his moral nature; and the comparative
fewness of his enjoyments in this life
makes the prospect of another far dear
er than it is to the sons of wealth. There
cannot be, then, a greater error than 10
suppose that it is to the interest of the
working man to relax the observance of
the Sabbath. They would be the first
and severest sufferers from such relax
alton"
But with capialisic Sunday, the
working man might end his days labor
with the following prayer
'Now | lay me down to sleep,
So tired / can hardly creep,
/ hope to wake at early morn,
To-morrow's duties to perform;
For ] must labor every day,
For the small wage that the boss viii |
pay;
With one day off I'd lose my breath,
For fear my kinds would starve to
DEATH"
Oh for Sunday under Socialism,
real civilization, the golden rule and tine
brotherhood of man.
j. T. Callaghan.
