SUNDAY TRAMS.
TO Til’4 EDITOR. Sir, —I should like to say a lew words in answer to a hater iu hist night’s papersigned “Rational.” lam very sorry to know we have a citizen in this town who follows out such a teaching as “ Look after yourself, and the Devil take the hindmost,” I cannot imagine how a man could be so mean as to deprive his fellow-citizens of their Sunday. Perhaps he is one of those church-goers who. so long as be gets driven to his church, does not care how many men he keeps away. What a miserable and selfish life to lead. Surely such a man could not sib in church with an ea*v conscience. But perhaps this correspondent does not want the trains to go to church in. bnt to go holiday-making. For myself, I have got nothing to say against a man enjoying himself on a Sunday, but there are plenty of ways to do that without preventing your fellow-citizens from j doing likewise, and not following out that most selfish teaching of “ Looking after yourself and letting the Devil take the hindmost.” Let us try to follow out that other teaching : “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."—l am, etc., No Sunday Tuajus. September 27. '
