All kinds of public en- tertainments appearing on that day have to undergo many changes in their week-day programs, says the New: York Times. On week-days the institution of “home rule” for Cities and towns leaves the Mayor and Boards of Selectmen to deter- mine the character of entertain- ments. Boston, for example, has a board of censors made up of the Mayor, Commissioner of Police and Chief Justice of -the Municipal Court. They supervise the theatres and motion pictures from Monday to Saturday. But when the Sabbath sun rises, the law of the’ Common- wealth becomes supreme and the rigid Puritan censor has his sway. In movnng pictures and plays, brutality and incidents “tending to mate crime” are gexpurgated for Sunday audiences by order of the State Department of Public SafetY~ The statutes of Massachusetts set forth that whatever performance is to be given on the Lord’s Day (the statutory designation) must be viewed in advance if it is a picture or described in detail if it is. a stage show. A small "mowe" theatre [has been fitted up at the State House and there the reels are "lire-viewed”. The word of the censor is final. Marriage and the Censor "How did you get by \vitii_‘Tlie Covered Wagon?’ ” one exhibitor was asked. "On Sundays we killed fewer In- dians,” he replied. _'\ In "The Thief of Bagdad” only one cut was required for Sunday showings. That was the scene in the very beginning when the thief- hero, pretending to be asleep in the market place skilfully purloins the purse of a rich man who happens to stroll by. Screened thievery is not allowed on the Lord’s Day. In another film two robbers plundered a country savings bank located on the street tloor. They first enter- ed the second story. cut away the flooring and lowered themselves into the bank office. The display of the burglars” resourcefulness was omitted Sunday. There was a film that told of a doughboy’s romance in France. The couple were un- married and after his return to America a child was born. The censor insisted that on Sundays it be shown conclusively that a mar- riage had been performed before the child was born. Inasmuch as the couple were married at the end. they had the benfit of clergy twice on the Sabbath. but only once on week-days. One may not sing a song in a Sunday Vaudeville performance in Massachusetts except under its "correct title”. "The program.” the law says. “must. show in detail the nature of the entertainment. the correct titles of moving pictures. the correct. titles of all songs. the names of artists and. a description of the dress worn: also when a dramatic or operatic production or sketch forms. a part. of the enter- tainment. a synopsis in duplicate of each and every such drama. opera or sketch must be furnishel.” Rigid rules govern the most min- ute details of acting and stage me- chanism. “Females.” the law stipu-w ulates. “shall not appear in male attire. Males shall not. appear in female attire except by special per- mission oi the commissioner. Comedy. tramp or similar or ridic- ulous costumes will not be per- mitted. . . . Changes of scenery shall not be permitted during the {performance provided that nothing in the foregoing shall be construed as prohibiting the raising and lowering of the curtain or suitable and appropriate drops or drapes. .. Performers appearing upon the stage shall wear street or evening dress or such costumes as the com- missioner may approve.” Jazz But No Dancing At the amusement parks barkers are required to be silent "except within the confines of an inclosed Summer park to which admission is .obtained upon payment of money or other valuable consideration.” Moreover, “persons shall not be permitted to attract the attention permitted NOBLE’S GARAGE SERVICE High-test Gas No Extra Charge ‘ Have You Tried m no KNOCK IMPERIAL on. co. GASOLINE Sold at NOBLE’S GARAGE Rules are Rigid of the public by oral announcements or by ‘ballyhooing’, so called, at. the entrance of any place of entertain- ment, nor shall any musical device or otherinstrument be played at any such entrance.” One may hear jazz, but “dancing in any form and contortion acts will not be permit- ted.” In many other ways are Mas- sachusetts citizens required to be more sombre at amusement places on Sunday. Temples of fun may not use the compressed air devices which blow oti' straw hats or disarrange cloth- ing, the law decreeing that “me- chanical apparatus for the dis- charge of compressed air shall not be permitted, except upon special approval of the Commissioner 01' Public Safety.” Fortune telliig, horoscope reading and the practise of palmistry by gypsies are forbid- den. No suggestion of gambling is tolerated. “Games of chance”, says the law, “at which a prize is offer- edâ€"any game where money is ex- posed as a prize or inducement. wheels of chance andjingle boardsâ€" shall not be permitted. ’ Merry- â€"go- round§ lime to suspend their musu: 101‘ the (lav.

HOW TO COOK CORN; RECIPE FOR CORN RELISH This is the season for com, the one dish that cooked rightly, al- most m on Canadian 10Ves. An ex- cellent houseVVife tells us that com should be fieshlv gatheied out of the garden, if youc a1e fmtunate to have one and that the husks should be left on until the last minute beiore you put the corn into boiling VVate1.
