Blue LQWS-and Lies
Frederick A.. Hatch.

The agitation by the Lords Day Alliance
for the conservation of the Lords Day has led
to the expression of lot Of ignorance about
what are termed Blue Laws. There
laws of the kind which attributed to enact
ments of Colonial Legislators. There was Il
renegade professional man in of the colonies
who was expelled iron, its borders for sufficient
reasons, who revenged himself by printing
laws, and binding them in blue covered
pamphlet, number of statements that being
printed now the actual rules of the colonies
under the Puritan Influence
There stern and ausere and
women of that olden time, who thought it safer
for growing generation to be curbed in the ex-
preston of fleshly desires 1t partly a re-
action from the licensed liberty of the land from
which they had fled. But the effort today to get
back something of the reverence for the Lords
day is not in line with such ideas. 1t is simply
the desire to obey what God says, as a means of
moral prosperity for the state and the nation.
When God has said, ''thou SHALT there is
no room for question as to what we should do.
Individual matters may be up to individual
responsibility, but tho community interests
up to the body polite, and all the lying about
what Puritans want to do, evades the plain de-
mand that We shall not make profit and
mercialize the reckoning of Gods command
scrap of paper.
In our western cities, weakened in
moral fibre because of the wicked way we treat
the will of God We allow fragrant defiance of
laws concerning the welfare of boys and
girls So long as they do not step far from the
path which the crowd take, it does not matter
what God says. The sneer of ''Puritanical.'
viii not avail to modify grief when, too late,
70 spprehend the effect of continually defying
God 1t is not matter of mans law but of
Gods, that what VIC SOW shall reap. Sow ir
reverence for Hrs Holy day, and horde of evils
invade homo, pleasure and government.
