Harry L Bowlby, naticnai ■ecretary of the Lord’s Day Alliance, may be illuminating to these who do not know the aims and purposes of the backers of Sunday closing legislation. The interview was published in the Philadelphia Public Ledger of November 23, 1320. Said the Rev. Harry: We are well financed. Our lobby a t W ashington will be an effective and experienced one. We shall work in ev ery congressional d istric t in every s t a te . We shall a g it a te and spread p r opa ganda , and cause votere to write unceasingly to t h e i r r e p re se n ta tiv e s in c ongress, until no congressm an who c a re s to stay in congresa will da re to r e fu s e to vote for our measures. They were the m easures used by the Anti- Saloon ' eague, and they were e ffect, i ve. « axe gm: jomum. annaa. THE TEM PTATION some of their own, poss'bly mak ing Saturday the legal holy day. j In that event we imagine that our Sunday closing friends would suddenly discover that their constitutional rights were being invaded. It makes a vast differ ence sometimes whose ox is gored. "W hatever Induced you to marry me, anyway, If I'm so distasteful to you?” he asked fiercely. “1 think it was tha ads," sbe re plied. , “ The what?” “The advertisements. The house hold bargains, you know. 1 thought It would bo so lovely to go to tha department stores and buy Ice picks for only 9 cefhts and 25-cent egg beat era markgJJ down to IS, and so on. Of course I had no use for that sort of stuff as long as I remained single." The Church of England just now is a horrible example of the evils of a union of church HOPELESSLY LOST and state. It seems that after the theologians of the church had spent several years formu lating a new prayer book satis factory to all factions of the church, it had to be passed upon by Parliament, a secular body For some reason or other the House of Commons refused to sanction it and the new prayer book failed of adoption. Tie church is said to be badly dis ruptsd as a resultand is seriously considering withdrawing from state control. This would mean a loss of state support, however, which gives them "Would you believe It? T h at girl pause. The matter seems follows all the beauty hints she to resolve itself into a ques reads."
