1t is from this impersonal enemy
that our Sunday is in danger. Doubt.
less orr railroad presidents and the
directorates Of our great pubic util-
ity corporations would be glad il
every employe could have his cIFry
Sunday off, and so would the public
official, the manufacturer, Fthc con
tractor and others. But what can We
do? they say, with more or less show
Of justice. The demands Ct our bust
ness are imperative. We must sat
iFfy the public. We must fulfill our
contracts, we rust rect competition,
or We will go under. The profession
al or business man who shuts him
self IN his office on sunday morning,
undisturbed by his own conscience,
makes for himself the same excuse.
and fortifies it perhaps by perverting
the Scripture of the ass fallen into a
pit. But where Will this end?s VIII
the loss Of Sunday to the demands of
necessity, real or pretended, become
such common thing that its sur
render to the demands OF conven-
fence or of avarice will follow as a
matter Of course? VIII the day of
rest become the privilege of the idle
rich or the stigma of the unemployed?
The answer rests with that one force
which is more powerful in the prem
ises than even the great god Bust
ness, and that is the public con-
science, which is the aggregate Of per
sonal convictions and personal will.
But this conscience needs both to be
enlightened and to be alert. ~. .
The Christian Sabbath as a reli-
gious institution and the civil day OF
rest may be clearly distinguished in
theory, but in point of fact are SO
closely identified that each is largely
dependent upon the other for its pre-
servation and efficiency. The pre-
Cept and practice of the Church, the
conventions of society and the habits
and traditions of the people, unite to
make this pre-eminently the day of
worship. In that respect it is to
every one the day of opportunity, of
privilege, as well as of sacred duty.
Probably there is no outward gauge
that more accurately indicates a mans
religious standing and quality than
his manner of keeping Sunday and
mis- estimate of the day as spiritual
value. Its surrender to the claims of
''other gods" is invariably seen in the
deterioration of Christian character
1t is, therefore, especially a religious,
but no less certainly a moral and civ
ic duty, to keep" this day, not only.
by sanctifying it ourselves but by pro-
Lecting it as the heritage and endow-
ment nf all the mamie of, the land

"WOMAN SUFFRAGE

What Is the. Meaning of Woman
Suffrage and How Will 1t Help the
Kingdom" will be the subject to be
discussed at the Empire theater Sun
day morning at IL O'Clock. This most
important subject, which is holding
the interest of advanced minds all
over the world at this present time,
and which vitality affects Honolulu at
the present moment, will be freely
presented on its practical side, also
showing it's relation to the spiritual
side of life, and its necessity in the ev-
olution of the race. AS we'll try to
have a race of children without a

Mother of the Race"
All are cordially invited to this
meeting, particularly those who are in

SUNDAY REST is
EMPHASIZED BY
PRESIDENT
I

On the Monday following the inaug.
uration Of President Wilson, tho
Washington dispatches in the news
papers announced that on the preced-
ing day the presidents office had re-
manned closed, and that Mr.. Wilson
had announced to his clerical staff
that no business would be transacted
1T the White House on Sundays, says
the Southern Churchman. An unusual
quiet prevailed, also, in some of the
departments, il was said. If this had
not been new ii would not have been
news. From the fact that ii attracted
attention and. was commented upon
as an indication Of marked policy
on the part of the new administra-
ton, we are led to infer that such
conditions have not always prevailed
to the fullest extent. In any case it
Is cause for congratulation that our
chief executive and his advisers are
not onlcy men whose personal con-
yictions induce them to keep Sabbath,
but who recognize the necessity of
the day of rest for the people at large,
even for the patient clerk and the i'm
patient office-seeker.
Certainly there is no economic pol
icy to which the government could
commit itself and lend the weight of
its influence, which is of greater Inn
portance or of more direct value for
the welfare Of the people than that of
sunday observance. Tariff or other
reform that may reduce the cost of
living is well but "the life is more
than meat"
Our thinking people, we believe,
realize this fact to some extent, and
even the unthinking, who make little
use of the day for its better purposes,
would not willingly consent to the loss
of the weekly holiday though they
will often barter it away for a pitiful
wage. There is no danger that Sun
day as a day Of rest will ever be lost
by legislative enactment The dam
ger that threatens it is that without
moral or legal right, without the con-
sent of the people, and even against
the judgment and wishes of those who
will be chiefly instrumental in ac-
complishing it, the beneficent uses
Of the day will be practically multi
fled TO an increasing multitude of
the worlds toilers by what wiz seem
to he an inexerable necessity. In
these latter days men have created a
great god before which all interests
which are merely humane and cannot
be capitalized must give way. We
call IL Business. 1t is a veritable
Frankenstein-a monster insensate
and Unsuitable, with super-humanl
lowers, but without a soul. 1t over

ence. IL brutalizes men, imperils the

today largely engaged in trying to

Logic Of phocIon.

Why tell me that man is a fine
speaker II Il is not the truth that he is
speaking? Phocion, who did not speak
at all was a great deal nearer hitting
the mark than Demosthenes.
He used to tell the Athenians-"Y
cant fight Philip. You have not the
slightest chance with him. He is a
man who holds his tongue; he has
great disciplined armies: he can brag
anybody you like in your cities her;
and he is going on steadily with an
aim toward his object: and
he win infallibly beat any kind Of
men such az you. going on raging from
shore to shore with all that rampant
nonsense"
Demosthenes said to him one day
The Athenlans will get mad some
day and kill you. Yes, Phoclon said.
When they are mad: end you as soon
as they get sane again. Thomas
Carlyle
