A riKiiig. picnics, games of
all sorts ami all elections are part
' of French Sunday life. It Is a day
of play for the whole family, and.
' except In some parts of the piuv-
! inci M where mul e sevi-re religious
, traditions are observed, Sunday la
a day of recreation.
i There is no air of boisterous
: merrymaking ubout this day of en
joyment, but rather a rest from
! work, a desire lo liave a littlo "self
: expi esHion."
The Krencli Kevolutlun abolish
ed KSunday and instituted the civil
llccadi," or tenth day of rest and
amusement. It lasted while the
revolutionists lasted, but It was
one of the ephemeraj fcuturcH of
, tin- Terror days. A new- law ill
; isiii again restored Sunday to the
i calendar and made It a legal hnli-
day. A half century ago another
law lightened some of tho legal re
strictions on how a Frenchman
might utilize his day off and since
: then tin; people have shown an In
1 creasing tendency toward doing
just what they like to do on their
j one free day.
Since the wur they have adopted
the week-end vacation when they
could and they have turned Sun
i day more anil more into a day of
j. sports and public entertainment.
I There aro villages, of course,
j where much church-going and a
j few formal visits constitute the
I Sunday program, but in the clties
anil towns I here Is no restraint ex
cept common sense rules of order
liness. Political meetings, parades, and
all Hurls of decorations of monu
ments, of which the French are so
fond, usually aro set for. Sunday.
Tho theaters aro open as usual,
cometlmes thero lire court sessions
in long trials newspapers'aro pub
lished, gambling casinos run full
blast, and when certain festivals
come on Sunday there is dancing
in tile streets. There is every ef
fort by the public and the govern
ment to diminish the number of
'Sunday workers and to aid them to
ienjoy themselves. AH cafes arc
open because the French family
likes to sit before them and have
an aperitif, but only a few drug
slores are allowed to do business,
in line with labor's crusadu to re
lieve workers.
