Test OF States
"Blue Laws" Slated
For September Court
Drive-Tn Operators File Appeal
On Conviction For LabOring
On Sunday

A test on one Of Maryland's "blue
laws" is in the offing in the Circuit
Court for Garrett county.
The court will determine whether
or not Mr. and Mrs. c. A Kisner can
show moving pictures at the Paradise
Drive In on Sundays without the EN-
ployes being arrested every week for
violation of Section $50 of Article
27, statute first passed in 1923, and
subsequently repassed and reworded
during several sessions of the legis-
lature until 1888
Mrs Mary Kisncr was arrested
June % under that statute, specifi-
cally charged with working on the
Sabbath by selling theatre tickets.
She was found guilty and fined SIS
and costs, the maximum under the
law Last Sunday county authorities
again arrested her for the same Of
Tense, and also arrested c. f. Arnold,
the machine operator; William Helms
and James Harvey, who park the
automobiles. At a hearing before
Magistrate W. O. Bitter on Monday
at Oakland they pleaded guilty and
each were fined IS and costs.
In themeantime, however, Mrs. ks
ner, through her attorney, W. O..
Treacy, notified Mr.. Bitter she was
appealing his decision of June %,
which will make test case in the Cir
cult court when it convcnes in Sep
tember..
Old Law Is Cited
County authorities sought convic-
ton under section $50 of Article 27,
which reads:
mo person whatsoever shall work
or do any bodily labor on the Lords
Day, commonly called Sunday and
no person having children or servants
shall command, or Willingly or will
ingly suffer any Of them to do any
manner of work on the Lords Day
| (works of a necessity and charity al
ways excepted nor shall suffer on
permit any children on servants to
profane the Lords Day by gaming
fishing, fowling, hunting or unlawful
paatimes or recreation; and every
person transgressing this section and
being convicted thereof by justice
of the peace shall forfeit $500, to
/ be applied to the use Of the county.
Had Mrs. Kisner lived in the carly
l7J0's or even 1S0O's, and had she been
convicted of an offense under this
statute, or permitted any of her slaves
to transgress, she would have had to
forfeit 200 pounds of tobacco. SO said
the original statute which has been on
Maryland's law books for quite some
time.
In this particular instance, how
ever, she is appealing the case and
intimating that operation of the
drive-in doesn't entail any more work
than is being done at any of the
states parks, or along Deep Creek
Lake, or in any business place in town
that remains open on the Sabbath day.
