REV. SNODDY REPLIES
TO POST COMMANDER

Editor of Star-Mirror:
Nick Thomas, playing the new role
as an exponent of the gospel and an
interpreter of the scriptures recalls
to mind the old proverb: "Is Saul
also among the prophets?" Mr..
Thomas is a cry bold prophet at
that, calling to question not only the
justice of existing civil law, on which
u civil laws are based.
The fact of the matter is that Sab
bath law is fundamental to the we'll
being of manhood. Various expert
mentation has been made to side step
the Sabbath law but always with dis
astrOus results. If the Christian Sab
bath goes the Christian church goes
with it and Christian civilization will
perish from the earth. The Sabbath
is a bulwark of vital Christianity and
a vital Christianity is the bulwark of
the nation. Whenever a city turns
its theatres loose on Sunday, it is
putting the red flag down the track.
Whose voice shall we heed? Nick
Thomas says: "Give us Sunday
shows Abraham Lincoln said: "The
Importance of the prescribed weekly
rest, and a becoming Difference to the
best sentiments of a Christian people
and a due regard for the Divine will,
demands that Sunday labor be re-
duced to themeasure of strict neces-
sity." Is it a good thing for our
country that 400, 900 men are employ
ed at Sunday labor in moving pic
ture shows? At n rate it is not in
keeping with the craftsmanship OF
Abraham Lincoln. William McKin-
ley said: 81 am in favor of Sunday
and a strict observance of
the Christian Sabbath" William H.
Seward said: 1.-The ordinances which
the observance Of one day in
seven and the Christian faith which
hallows it, are our chief security for
all civil and religious liberty" And

WHY NOT BE FAIR TO OUR
AMERICAN LEGION BOYS?

They did not go into the war from
choice, but because they thought it
their duty and we should think of
several things before voting tomor-
row. First, what these dear boys
have done for us. Some of the peo-
pie are getting too bitter, CHASING the
movies with saloon, which is entire
ly wrong and then there are people
who never go to church but go to the
movies, whether it is Sunday or not,
and there are some pictures which
leave 6. good impression with them.
1t is up to the people of Moscow to
see that the pictures are clean. There
are Sunday movies in nearly all the
towns surrounding Moscow and a

is being begun to aid the Legion in
it's effort to checkmate and prevent
the underhanded, secret tr%aitorous,
but growing and active efforts of the
enemy of our government to over
throw the same. While said campaign
is now confined to the state of Wash
ington, in its said commencement, it
will grow and expand to take in
other states, SO if a post home is
built this will enable the supporters
of said campaign, from a distance, to
come and advocate the said cause of
patriotism and aid the heroic efforts
of those, now directing said campaign
of education, to c~Ounteract the per-
nicious doctrines, theories and efforts
of said enemies, which, while being
secret efforts. are not widely or fully
known to the patriotic people, and
every thing we do for the cause of
patriotism, now supported and fos-
tered by the American Legion, and
all we do for those defenders who
went forth to battle for us, in thai
grave emergency that threatened our
existance as a people, and all
of our constitutional rights of lift,

liberty and the pursuit of happiness
and saved our government, now en-
%deavoring to fight a secret foe, will
be as much a moral help as any cam
paign to encourage the workers in
the cause of religion and in no ways
will the opening, for a few idle hours,
a moral place Of amusement such as
the legion promises to place before
the people on Sundays, as such
workers in religion have all Of the
forenoon and all of the evening to
advocate religion, and each of the
said workers, whether the religious
or the patriotic workers, can work
hand in hand to further each meri-
torious and necessary principle,
whether it be a principle OF religion
or patriotism, and it is likely that the
Saviour would if consulted, say, yes,
but be sure that no immoral or ire
ligious teachings are placed on the
SCREEN; yes, we are going through
the corn. The Sabbath was made for
man."
Very Respectfully,
G. A. LANE,

good many young people go to other

good many young people go to other
towns in good weather to attend Sun
day movies. How much better il
would be to have these young people
remain in their home town and not
be coming home all hours of the
night. I have heard some of the
mothers say, they would rather have
their girls be at home on Sunday than
going to some other town for amuse-
ment. And if we don't use our boys
right they will lose all interest in the
church. If we are interested in them
and as the saying goes, "go half ways
with them" we will eventually get
them more interested in the church.
If we pull down their plans they are
going to rebel and not try to come
our way at all. We shouldn't say
mean things, it only aggravates them.
Pull together and ii will work out all
right. Nearly all the churches in the
large cities are having Sunday
movies, which are clean and whole
some pictures.
