SEPT. 25 RESULTS: More than 69 per cent of votes cast
favored enforcement of the Lord’s Day Act, while a little over
80 per cent were opposed.

“Big business has an axe to grind here,” wrote a Nelson
reader. “Lack of Sunday observance.would make it easier for
them to push Sunday opening and we do not want that. So
many people come to Canada because of the peace and quiet
here.” In additional to breaking God's wishes, the writer
added, Sunday opening would put pressure on Christian
Business people and workers.

“How can Christian people go to church if they have a job
and are forced to work on the Lord's Day?” asked a Crescent.
Valley reader. “It is an imposition on so many.”

“I realize that shift jobs present problems,” wrote
another reader. “Also there are many jobs ... that must of
necessity be working on any day of the week, but I do not feel
having stores open all week is really necessary. People can
shop when they are open.”

Yet another reader cited the warning in Romans 11:13
“that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his
brother’s way,” and said too many activities are already

larly scheduled on Sund: ;

“Learning the 10 Commandments at Sunday school helps
children stay out of mischief when they are tempted,” the
reader said. “It is not right to penalize them by staging their
favorite sport or exercise during church hours.”

But a Rossland reader cited the maxim “that if a man's ox
fall in the well on the Sabbath one can help him out” as
justification for Sunday opening of stores.

“If a widow with children has to work from Monday to
Friday, then Saturday is needed for cleaning and laundry,”
ahe wrote. “If a grocery store-could be open from 2 to 4 p.m.

_ on Sunday then she could go down and get the week's
