The Christian Sabbath and
The Resurrection of Christ
BY BISHOP w. A. GAMBLER

ly and most forcibly, THE early OBJ
servance of the Lords Day, whether
we reflect on the period when it be-
gan, or the previous training of those
who first accepted it, or the renuncia-
tion of old beliefs which it implied, or
the total and overmastering change of
feeling and thought in reference to
time-honored institution like the Sab
bath, which it involved, remains, and
must forever remain. an absolutely I'M
ineligible phenomenon without the
fact of the Resurrection. 1t can be &C
counted for neither ny imaginary
death nor by a visionary resurrection
\ visionary resurrection runs up in the
last analysis into a fraudulent resurrec-
ton, connived at by the most passion
ate teachers of the DUTY of veracity,
The observance of this day is too solid
fact to repose on a foundation of
mist
The Christian Sabbath being an
= abiding miracle attesIing the resurrec-
tion of our Lord, it behooves us, on
this Easter Sabbath. the day in the year
which lends special emphasis to this
miraculous fact, to grip more firmly
than ever the observance of the Lord s
Day"
When our people learn to profane
the day that proclaims the resurrection
of Jesus they will come speedily to ig-
| noring or despising the Lord of the
Sabbath.
Some, under the pretext of enter
tanning our soldiers, would have OPEN
ed lot of petty picture shows on Sun
! day. This they would do, not so much
| because they care for our brave boys
! in the camps, but because they would
| take advantage of a state of war and
time OF sympathetic interest in sol
diers, to weaken the hold of the Sab
| bath on our people. Under their spe-
cious proposal is nothing nobler than
greed of gain. 1t ought not 10 be con-
| sidered for one moment.
! Our dear soldier boys are not set
of babies, who need to be entertained
with Sunday shows to keep them from
I dying or ennui. l imagine that they
| do appreciate particularly the making
/ of a plea for such shows in their name
Many thousands of them are Christian
men who oppose most positively sue
! ordinations of the Sabbath.

1t has been our practice to raise a
second crop of Irish potatoes for some
years past. The only difficulty we have
ever experienced was in getting this
crop to a stand. AS a rule we used to
plat this crop late in the season, say
from August 1 to Is. In recent years
we have been planting earlier. say from
June Is to July 1. At that season there
is a good deal of rain, the ground is
not so hot and the potatoes can often
be induced to terminate. When brought
