Sunday and the Sabbath.

TO THE EDITOR.

Sir, —I notice that the borough officials are in future to stop games and pleasures on Sundays. Does this mean that the people are again to be put under theological control? Surely the church minority should not be allowed to interfere this way in these more enlightened times. Many of these objectors' to recreation and trams during their church hours think nothing' of working their own or other peoples' horses or servants on Sunday by utilising trains, trams and horse vehicles and cars. Moreover, they profess tq keep the Sabbath, which is said to be the seventh day. On this point the Seventh Day Adventists certainly score against them if the foundation of their professed beliefs are sound and why should they be prosecuted because they do not kep the other people's Sabbath?—l am, etc., FAIR PLAY.
