Professional Cards Sunday, a. Day of Recreation or Ob­ servance, AVhieli? While lecturing in London, Ontar­ io, recently the question was asked Jack Miner,- “Are you going to have your place open Sundays this year? Mr. Miner said: .“I replied as plain­ ly as I could, but for fear there might be some one who did not catch my entire meaning I just ask the privilege of answering the ques­ tion through the press so there can­ not be a misunderstanding. “The facts are, I am only a grown­ up, underprivileged.' boy and the de­ sires of my heart are with the same class of people. As proof of this I carried on for over fifteen years without, a fence in front of my prem­ ises, but as the trees I had planted became .more and more attractive and more and’ more people gathered there, especially on Sunday, • until one Sunday in April. 1925, there were over 5,000 people at my place This fact will give you an idea of the problem I began to see I was facing, especially as I had to be away from home the greater part of my time, lecturing to get money to feed the birds that come to me. This left Mrs: Miner to entertain and try to explain tox the well meaning but thoughtless public- as to how it ’all happened, etc. soul’s health failed, sod and' spent two hospital at Preston Springs Ontario under the cate of Bros,, and while we expected 'to give the balance of our wves to the pub­ lic, 'we don’t Want it all to happen in one year. “Please take this fact into consid­ eration: My home is within one hour’s auto drive of about two mil­ ion people of the city of Detroit. Please look at this—nearly two- thirds as many people as there are in our vast Province of Ontario. Just think it over for yourselves and I am sure you will see why we have to have restrictions. My family and I have decided on this, that our place will be open, as during the last five years, namely; from April April 90th, except Sundays. “This is when the birds their best so please toll your there are absolutely ao -Sunday visit­ ors allowed. Let mo advise one ahd all who want to come between April jst and 20th,’ except Sundays, to home from Sunday .School a,nd as high as thii’ty-five people, perfect strangers, in your home a ball game, nicely just what .would you do? Is that kind of education going to build up our vast and' love­ ly Canada- Readers way back in the seventies my father came- to Can­ ada and bought and eventually paid' for this, old homestead -containing' one hundred' acres, wood, water and .all, yes he paid, but remember, there was one thing he did' not buy nor pay money for, and that was the Christianity and civilization that were already established here. Now my dear father was not considered a real Christian man but there is this one thing I do .know, he did ■love his family, and I am absolutely certain that he would not have brought dear mother .and ten child­ ren here from Ohio if' this Christ­ ianity and civilization were not al­ ready established. During the last twenty years I have bought this whole plantation o'n, exactly the same terms as father bougt it in the sixties, and1 this Christianity is not mine to dispose of but by the help of God I am going to hold) fast against Sunday recreation, for rath­ er knowingly and coscientiously make Canada a worse place than I found’ it, I will sell out and get out of the dear, dear land that, helped me up; .and in closing let me offer a. suggestion that I am absolutely certain would be, for the betterment Let us common working people com­ bine our influence and1 ask our Dom­ inion .leaders to frame a law giving us five ten-hour working day each week and Saturday for recreation; and let us keep -Sunday as our an­ cestors d'id in making our Canada such a desirable place for us. For remember, if we lose our Sabbath .Day observance, Christianity will de­ teriorate and we will lose the very soul of our vast budding nation and we will go down, down assail other nations' have when they if.or.got God.
