" COURSE dllliOSI CNClN StdlS
K "A in the Union, professional
baseball playing on Sunday
in New York has been precluded by
natriarchal blue laws. AS every
New Yorker knows, these Puritan
ical ordinances have long led to
evasions in spirit and Technology,
until in a process of Broadway evo-
luton q Sabbath Day vaudeville en-
tertainment is now formally adver-
tised as sacred" concert. Base
ball had never been so ingenious.
Now Sunday baseball has achieved
victory. After fight of many years
in which the state Legislature al
ways tabled bills purposing to make
baseball on Sunday in New York
legal or at least a matter of local
option, the lawmakers at Albany
capitulated in April. On a local
option basis, it is put up to the
cities, towns and hamlets of the
state to decide whether they want
professional baseball on the Sab
BATH
The City of New York promptly
took advantage of the legislative lee
way. The Board of Aldermen
passed a resolution permitting base
ball playing after p. m. on Sun
day, and Mayor Hylan brought the
long local campaign to a conclusion
by signing it.
Thus, after almost half century
Of waiting, the City of New York
had its first professional games-in-
GLIDING the paid gate"-on May 4,
1919. In the annals of our "na-
tonal pastime" this will be cele-
brated as red letter day. 1t will
permit baseball enthusiasts who can
not attend weekday games to wit
ness a hebdomadal contest, and
should, by the way, greatly increase
the revenue of the three major
league baseball clubs Of the City of
New York, i. e., the New York Ma
tional League club (Giants), the
New York American League club
tYankees) and the Brooklyn Ma
tional League club (Dodgers).

The Sabbath Calm

AS to the effect this departure
will have upon the proverbial calm
of metropolitan Sabbath, the New
York press is pretty we'll agreed
that the initial experiment developed
naught deleterious.
More than 10000 persons in
Manhattan and Brooklyn saw the
first Sunday baseball game under
the new law, strange as it may seem
to the professional guardians of the
Sabbath, in perfectly decorous
manner" says "The New York
World" "Not only was there no
disorder, but, according to the po-
lice, the two throngs were the quiet
est and best behaved they had ever
seen"
The sweeping away of this sur
vlval of an intolerant past was well
coined in the most practical way by
the public yesterday" declared "The
Evening Sun" They turned out in
large numbers to see the game and
breathe the fresh air. Surely it
can do no harm mentally or morally
TO be out in the pure air, even on
Sabbath Day, waxing happy at the
proves of Frank Baker or Hal
Chase or lack Wheat; while "The
New York Herald" remarks: "The
events of yesterday, although demon
stratlng the long cry from the old
order of the Sabbath, did not mar
the beauty of an ideal spring day,
nor infringe upon it's sanctities."
The New York Tribune" decides:
1T was not exactly a scarlet Sunday
that our city enjoyed, we would re-
mind our friends who criticize Sunday
baseball. A little pink has
oeen mixed into our old-fashioned blue
sunday The generally prim and re-
posefui character Of the day remains"
In the West, where Sunday base
ball playing is no novelty, but part
OF the warp and wool of its recre-
ational scheme, "The Kansas CITY
journal" takes occasion to congratu
late New York upon its latest step
and thinks it will be pleased with it,
remarking:
There appear from time to time ex-
pfessions Of fears that the reform en-
tnusiasts are binding shackles more
Fad more firmly upon the personal lib
erty Of the proletariat. Especially
since the rapid progress made by the
prohibition sentiment set in have these
Tears doomed most portentously, those

atoms Of the Constitution rest upon a
peer barrel being particularly moved

erie'y. A recent writer in The New

Ice Cream

Editorially, the greatest amount
of commotion over the luxury tax
apparently has centred upon the
matter of ice cream. There seems
to be something about ice cream
and the small boy that is very near
the foundation Of a great democ-
racy. "The New York Tines is
not certain the law is explicit, and
fearing that both boy and man may
become unfortunately enmeshed in
the mazes of the tax regulations, it
remarks:
ut seems that the law about buying
liquor to be drunk on and off the prem
Uses was thought to govern the pur-
chase and consumption of ice cream
cones and sundaes. So perhaps it may,
if followed strictly, and not in such
manner as to create presumption of
lodging taxes when the Treasury
needs the money. Ice cream and soda
water may be bought in containers
without paying taxes, if the containers
are carried SO far away that there is
presumption against the intention
to patronize the fountain or 'parlor.'
Far be it from us to pretend finality
in the Interpretation Of these nice
points. We have no idea whether a
sale of ginger ale in q bottle satisfies
the Treasury notion Of a lawful con-
tainer But we strongly advise against
sending boy in to buy an ice cream
cone with felonious intent to eat it
outside the 'parlor.' Our guess is that
the boy would cat the cone and the
Treasury would not get the tax. Also
we think it dangerous to have sun
dae handed through window-the
Treasury detectives might see you. 1t
would be better to hire a tax lawyer
before than after such dangerous en-
terprises as buying luxuries under the
Treasury's threat of fine of $4,000,
or imprisonment for one year, or
BOTH"
A Necessity
"The Philadelphia Record" arises
to announce that ice cream isn't a
luxury at all; it's a necessity, as
the following makes bold to assert:
There may have been a time when
candy, ice cream, chocolate sundaes
and such were Injuries, but everybody
knows they're absolute necessities now.
If you have been 40 fortunate as to
find place where sundae could be

Taxing Corsets
and Ice Cream

had of late for Is cents, it now sets
you back II cents. And candy? No
body knows how high that may go. If
you're neat man-not necessarily
dressy or fussy-and have developed a
fondness for smoking jackets, house
coats or bathrobes, you'll pay tax on
such articles costing more than $3.50
and where can you buy any for less?"
On the other hand, "The Phila-
delphia Bulletin" discovers that
there has been plot abroad-but
let 1.-The Bulletin" tell it:
Thrifty individuals who have been
figuring that they could escape the
penny-or, at prevailing rates. the
three penny tax on their egg shakes
by buying the milk and egg separated,
and doing the shaking themselves, need
to watch out or the 'revenooer' will
get them, and the clerk who serves
them, according to later and
careful reading of the book of mys-
teries known as the revenue law.
Section $50 was intended to be in
elusive of all the business done at a
soda fountain or an ice cream parlcr
or stand, and there isn't much that can
escape, save the crackers on the side.
The one in ten tax is imposed on all
drinks commonly known as soft drinks,
compounded or mixed ut such place of
business, mineral waters, carbonated
drinks, grape juice, ETC., previously
prepared and bottled, being assessed
by another section of the law at their
place of manufacture.' Further than
this the tax is laid on see cream, ice
cream sodas, sundaes, and other SINH
lar articles of food or drink.
when any of the above are sold for
consumption in or in proximity to
such places. syss sss
