MAY WE KNIT ON sunday

The problem of Sabbath observance
has come up in various forms in Eng
land, where it was decided by certain
bishops that no harm could come from
working in the fields on the Lords
day. With us the extreme stage of
the question has not been reached;
but Scranton, Pa, has asked aloud if
it is right for women to knit on Sun
day for the soldiers, and also whether
knitting during church service is
proper. An answer is attempted by the
Baltimore Sun, speaking ethically, and
assurance is given that $50 far as
knitting garments for our soldiers on
Sunday is concerned, even the strict
est Sabbatarian might safely include
it among permissible works of mercy
and necessity" The Sun argues the
point with seriousness, even if it does
permit itself stroke of humor at
the end of its homily:
with all the numberless knitting
needles that are enlisted in the cause
there will not be enough woolen arti-
cles to keep every soldier warm this
winter. Even with spare hours on
Sunday utilized, there is no time to
be lost if the individual knitting fac
tories are to come anywhere near
meeting the demand upon them.
"The question of knitting in church
is, we concede, more debatable. If it
is right to fight battles on Sunday,
why should it not be right to do help
full and comforting things during
church services. 1t is not inconceiv-
able that a warm stocking would be
piety. Knitting, when fully mastered.
becomes largely mechanical, and even
beginners could still sing the hymns
and listen devoutly to the minister.
1--WE acknowledge that knitting is
not per Sc pious exercise, and that
regarded as far more religious up
above than cold prayer, and that a
woolen vest for soldier of the Lord
might be considered in the heavenly
court of last resort as more eloquent
than many sermons. Nor do we think
it could be urged that knitting in
church would divert the minds of the
congregation from exhortations to
it does not necessarily involve a
peaceful frame of mind. The French
furies who surrounded the guillotine
curing the Reign of Terror frequently
carried their knitting with them, and
rarely missed a stitch even during the
most exciting scenes. 1t would un-
Questionably be better to knit in
church than like Madame Lafarg at
such revolutionary shrine as that
at which she and others of her kind
worshipped during those memorable
days of blood.
However this may be decided, we
enter protest right here against one
thing: No young woman should be
permitted to take her young man along
and make him hold the yarn for her
in church while she winds it UP in a
ball. That would certainly be de-
moralizing to the preacher, and it
would surely inspire jealous and IT.
religious thoughts in the minds of
girls who had no young man to hold
their yarn. We make this point now
both in the interest of religious de-
corum and of feminine friendship and
good feeling"
