Show THE LOGIC OF THE SABBATH H One Day In the Sever) Should Be Kept M Free From Work. H As a psychologist, I behave In tho , Sabbath day. Ono day la seven should H bo kept holy from work and sacred to H man's prlmitlvo paradise of leisure. H I am no Puritan plotlst or ovon Sabba- , tarlan In any severo sense, but hold H that this Is ono of tho greatest of all B human Institutions, and that the com- HB mand to keop It as a day ot rest Is HH written In our physiological constltu- HHJ tlons. If need be, It may be kept In B sleep, man's great restorer. Monday HJ our nerves and brain must bo ro- B freshed, and we must start a new HB weekly rhythm on a higher piano than H wo closed the old ono. The mental H scenery must be changod. Tho brood- H cr's ovorthought must havo enlarged H our plans and given us both moment- H urn and dlroctlon. What form the rest H euro should tako differs perhaps for H each person. I go to church, but my H neighbor should perhaps spend tho IH day In tho fields with children. In H music, In books, but for all there 'IH should be peace, tranquillity, ropose, H surcease of worry and relaxation. In no land should tho Sabbath bo so hal- . M lowed as in this lr.nd of hustlo, tension 'H and Amorlcanltls. G. Stanley Hall, In M Alnslco's. M |
