Day. It has became Mother's Day, Father’s Day, Dad's
birthday, Aunt Susie’s birthday, and anybody rise's
birthday, whether it came last Wednesday or will not
arrive until next Thursday. Not only that, it is being
used for Kid's Day, Dog Show Day, -Hog-Calling Day,
Fishing Day, and Tour-The-Country Day, the Day we
get'together, make-an-extra-buek Dav. Day-off Day. Rc-

together With the Sundays that are Picnic Days, Enter-

there is no more tifneYnr Christ on the Lord’s Day." ►
