CHURCH AND STATE
The announcement is made
by the head of the Internation
al Reform Bureau that a mil
lion dollars will be spent the
next three years to procure
the enactment of Sunday Blue
Laws. The spokesman for the
Puritan Sunday idea says they
I are going to see to it that “the
laws of Christ be made the
laws of land” so that the Unit
ed States will be run the way
Christ would run it, which of
course, means the way these
gentlemen of the Lord’s Day
Alliance think he would like to
have it run. How they know
all about such matters is not
explained, but, perhaps we
may get light on the subject
from a letter dated Vienna,
Austria, November 17, in
which we are told that a man
there had just been sentenced
to two weeks’ imprisonment
for failure to remove his hat
when a Corpus Chrisfci proces
sion was passing on the street.
II is plea that he was unortho
dox, not a church member, and
a free thinker, and that any
way, it was dangerous to take
his hat off in bitter cold weath
er, availed him nothing. To
the prison he went and in pris
on he stayed. Is this the sovt.
of thing that is offered to the
American people and will they
accept it as offered?—Akron;
