Show 4- SUNDAY OBSERVANCE IN FRANCE. The Sunday rest movement, has assumed a practical prac-tical phase in France through the vote of the superior su-perior council of the ministry of public work recommending rec-ommending Parliament to enact a rigid law providing provid-ing for one compulsory day's rest weekly. The council also recommended that Sunday be the prescribed pre-scribed day of rest unless the nature of a person's occupation compels it to be otherwise. The move- I mcDt is the result of the growing disregard of Sunday observance, it now being customary in Paris and throughout France for building operations, opera-tions, shop trade and moct other branches of industry in-dustry to continue Sundays the same as any other day. |
