quench that fire on the Lords day,
and to save perishable property But
the carpenters work in Yerington on
Sunday could be postponed until
Monday. This unnecessary work on
Sunday is certainly teaching a bad
example to the childre and the rising
generation.
"The work done on Sunday he
said, that could be avoided was
never known to be profitable. There
is a Divine Providenc that bears wit
ness to such impositions to God, and
at the end of the year it invariably
shows, and many years of experience
have proven, that the Sunday earn
ings from servile works actually made
the person poorer, either in sickness,
loss OF crops, or i'll accidents or loss
of property.
1--WE actually pay dearly whenever
we try to cheat God Of His Divine
command to worship Him on Sunday.
How strange it is also" he said that
so many people are aware of this,
and yet act as if they had deaf ear
to evrry warning. Those people sim
ply abandon their lives to chance, and
that is brought about chiefly by the
fact that they never hear the word
of God on Sunday
"In regard to the crying of babies
i'll Church during the services, the
more babies there are, no matter if
they cry, the better music it gives to
God. Has not Christ said, Suffer the
little ones to come unto me-"
No mother need to leave the
church during service" he said sim
ply because the baby cries, except it
might be for minute out DOORS.

Editor Yerington Times:
As the Yerington Times is read by
nearly everybody in town and vicinity
it is we'll to offer them that kind
of news and instructions which should
concern everybody. If the few words
If wish to offer here are never print

Of the public press, when used in the
proper manner, has always been
known to be of great moral influence.
And know the people of Yerington
are broad minded enough to read the
news of all creeds and churches in
town.
In the course of his short sermon
last Sunday, Father Cunha stated
something which should go home to
everybody in Yerington He said it
was far more edifying to hear the
crying of children in church, on Sun
day than to hear the hammering of
carpenters driving nails during di-
vine service. And just as he said
those words the congregation could
hear the carpenters driving nails very
distinctly. Christ's command was:
six days thou shalt labor and the
seventh thou shalt rest or give to
to the worship of God.
There are times however God
makes exceptions to the best of
laws.
For instance" he continues, when
there is fire and lives and proper
ty are in danger it is our duty to
