OLD blue LAWS
/ NOT WANTED NOW
But Sunday Should Be Kept
Holy, Minister Declares

Observance Of the Sabbath was
discussed at a meeting of Every
mans Bible class yesterday by Rev.
+. N. Gilman, pastor of Stanley
Memorial church. who said that it
would be wrong to enforce blue
laws" on the present generation but
who advocated proper observance
Of the day.
He spoke of vote on the com
mandments taken at Simmons col
lege, Boston. by S35 girls attending
the institution in which the fourth
commandment - Remember the
Sabbath Day to Keep 1t Holy'-was
declared least important of the ten.
In part, Rev. Mr.. Gilman said:
The question of proper sabbath
observance has always been per-
picking one ever since the idea of
one rest day in seven was promul-
gated in the law of Moses. 'Remem-
Der the Sabbath day to keep it holy
has been one of the most important
stepping stones toward progress and
civilization.
I'm the first place it is law of
God based upon human need. The
human system is so constituted that
1t can not do It's best and most eff
cient work without regular stated
periods OF rest The human being is
not a perpetual motion machine.
Man can not go on doing the same
thing in the same way day after
day without the stimulus which
comes from change in the program
OF his activities on at least one day
IN seven. The experience Of the
human race since the dawn of his
tory has shown that the greatest eff
f1ciency and progress are promoted
II the rest day comes about every
seventh day. In this connection It
will be recalled that France once
tried the cycle of one rest day in
every 10, but after IL years expert
ence came back to the seven-day
cycle.
This fundamental principle, this
human need for rest and change one
day in seven, therefore implies that
all people shall not spend the waking
hours of this day in just the same
way. If all were engaged in the
same occupations and all were con-

cal Legionnaires will shove off for
France on the Celtic from New
York on September s and the IS
Arabic will sail from the same port
on September 2. Both ships will
land at Cherbourg and the Arabic
will also call at Plymouth and
Antwerp, Belgium.
Under the new arrangement two
