The Editor,
The Brussels Post,
Brussels, Ontario,
Dear Sir:
.A. copy of your paper dor . Novem-

tension, „In that issue your Mortis
correspondent raises the gaestioni-
"Is there a Lords Day Alliance
now Or, are the Ten Command-
ments especially the fourth one,
forgotten and not respected, as it
apneans that Sundayis now a day
of much work, even to dehorning
cattle on the sixth line."
In reply, permit me to 'call the at
tention of your readers to the fact
that two Sunday laws are operative.
in this ProvinceofOntario, One
of these is the Pre -Confederation
Upper Canada law of 1845, and the
other is The Lord's Day Act 00
Canada, enacted by the Parliament
of Canada in 1906,.and effective
throughout the Dominion. Both
• of these lawn forbid the doing of
unnecessary 'work on Sundays,
whether on the farm, in the store,
the factory, or wherever commercial
projects are involved. It would not
require much inquiry to determine
thatthe dehorning of cattle cannot
be included! in the works of neces-
sitp or mercy sept forth in. these
Laws.
The :xenon: b:l:ty for the en-
forcement of. these Sunday laws, as
with other laws associated with the
Criminal Code at Canada or the
provincial statutes, rests primarily
upon the municipal or county
police within their respective juris-
dictions. It should not even be
necessary for private citizens to
lay complaints to secure effective
action against persistent violators
of .these laws'. The police have
fold authority, and also reeponsibil-
ity. to act on their own initiative
whe:e viciation.s of law are involv-
ed!, whether the offence be burglery,
assault, etc,, or unnecessary Sun-
day selling or labor,
The Lord's Day Alliance continues`
its services to the people of On-
tario, and the other provinces of:
Canada, in the promotion of a better
understanding of Canadian Sunday
laws; their recognition and enforce -
met. Enquiries for information
and literature addressed to our
office at 642 'Confederation Life
Building, Toronto, will be promptly 1
considered and given sympathetic
reply.
The values of the weekly day or
freedcm from business and toil
are fundamental to human welfare,
and should receive general accep-
ance without legal action. The
use of the weekly day of rest for
spiritual worship and Christian se:,
vice is likewise a source of bless-
ing for individuals and communi-
ties,

During September and October, 1475
critical users of premium -priced gasolines
were asked to test an unidentified, colorless
gasoline which was in reality Nu -Blue
Sunoco with the coloring left out. From
Florida to Canada, these tests were con-
ducted, not by us, but by independent,
unbiased research authorities, and when
the returns were summarized, it was found
that these motorists 'voted 9 to 1 in favor
of Nu -Blue Sunoco! 9 out of 10 pro-
claimed it equal or superior to premium -
priced gasolines they had used previously.
To make a fair test, don't dilute
Nu -Blue Sunoco' with other gasoline.
Let your tank run practically empty. Then
put in Nu -Blue Sunoco. Compare it par-
ticularly with premium -priced gasolines.
We'llrest our case on your findings.
