Mr. Sam Walker, manager of the Asheboro Wholesale Grocery Com pany, is spending several days in New York City. , . Sabbath Sanctity '.For a long time it has been ap parent that there Is a rapidly in creasing determination), on the prt of worldly-minded people of all classes, to secularize the Sabbath. This was to be expected from godlca people. It is not surprising that) all lawless ones should unite in at-1 tempting to destroy the sanctity of the day. But it 1b by no meana confined to such ones. There are multitudes of reputed Christiana wh are giving aid to this kind of dese cration. Even some professedly Christian editors of religious pa pers are advocating the practice of amusements and recreations on the Lord's day- In a recent issue of "Christian World," of New York, considerable editorial space wag given to the advocacy of a "liberal use of the day. I quote a few sen tences: "Today, devout evangelical believers In Germany, Switzerland aa France will attend worship in the 1 morning and give themselves up to various recerations ia the afternoon. "There is no doubt that, our Purl- Ian fathers took their Sunday obser vance from the rabinnical law, rathe; than from the Christian Gospel.' "There Is no getting away from the fact that the British and New Eng land Sunday was the late creation of an artificial conscience " In re ferring to the feeling of the people of the world, the editorial says: "It resents the church monopoly and de mands that ecclesiastical prohibitlori shall no longer lnterfr with its right to spend Its weekly rest-day in the manner which suits It best. These sentences show a purpose to encourag a desecration of the Lord's day. If this charge seems to be unr just, then why is it that such ex pressions are made? They are cer tainly on the side of those godless ones who openly profane the sanc tity of the Sabbath. Here is a public endorsement of practice which, if universal and entire, would uterly destroy all distinction between; the Sabbath and other days of tthe week. -What nonsense It is to speak of "worship", on Sunday, morning, and worldly amusements in the af ternoon, by the same persons. That editor calls such ones "devout. How pious they must be. . And that editorial writer calls himself a Chris tlan. Is he serving Christ by writ ing sentiments in favor of secular izing the Lord's day? By no means. Remember the fact that the history of Sabbath desecration is one oi !, cursed who indulge in it. God de mands one day in seven to be set apart as holy- They who despise that !' demand invite upon themselves the, Judment of a God who condemn sin ners. C. H. Weatherbe. The Fourth at Kaiuseur. Ramseur, July 8. The Masonic Rally here on July Fourth was a complete success, and was much en joyed by a good audiene. The ad- drefia of welcome was delivered by Mr- T. E.
