displays none of the troubles of
difficult life. Painted with
enormous spontaneity and with
each brush stroke in exactly the
right and functional spot. the
portrait shows at once Halls
complete understanding of the
joys of childhood and his intense
pleasure in his ability to capture
the degree and the imperma-
nence of those Joys, an imperma-
nence symbolized in this particu-
lar painting by the bubbles be-

painting was the gift of Mrs. A.

expression of an impermanent
pleasure, lasting permanently.

RICHMOND, Oct. Is (AP).-
The application of Virginia's
new Sunday closing law was
extended yesterday to muffle
if not quiet completely, the
jangle of coin-operated ma
chimes.
Attorney General Frederick
T. Gray held that coin-operated
machines are a form of bust
ness as defined by the new law
Whether a specific class of ma
chine performs a work of ne
cessity, and therefore is exempt
from the mandatory no-work-
on-Sunday law, IS up to a jury
to decide, he said.
In Arlington, Common
wealth's Attorney William Has
san said that each case would
be judged on its particular
merits, but indicated that it is
unlikely that any laundry in
the county will be closed.
Every case that has come to
my attention has been one in
which the laundry was a ne
cessity," he said.
Mr.. Gray'S opinion dealt spe-
officially with coin operated
laundry machines, but observers
said the implication was clear
that the law would apply to q
variety of coin-operated de-
vices such as cigarette vending
machines.
commemorative Attorney l.
Harvey Neff, jr., of Grayson
County had written Mr.. Gray
asking whether a coin-operated

Hits Coin Loundries

unattended laundry would be
subject to the Sunday closing
law.
Whether the operation Of
such a laundry is a work Of
necessity would depend, Mr.
Gray wrote, on the circum-
stances Of each individual case
This determination must be
decided by the Jury" with the
test being whether the work is
reasonably essential to the eco
nomic, social or moral welfare
Of the people, viewed in the
light of the habits and customs
of the age in which they live
and of the community in which
they reside" he added
The toughened blue law was
passed by the 1860 session OF
the General Assembly and up
held last month by the State
Supreme Court of Appeals. The
court Wednesday refused a re-
hearing on its decision.
The law says that on Sunday
'it shall be unlawful for any
person to engage in work, labor
or business or to employ others
to engage in work, labor or bust
ness except in household or
other work Of necessity OF
charity"
Coin operated m chin S
which vend drinks, candy or
crackers apparently would not
be affected by the law, which
permits the sale of ready-to-eat
food on Sunday.
