Canada’s Sunday Observance Bill

A BILL is now before the Canadian Parliament, designed to secure a proper observance of Sunday. It provides that on that day no post office shall be opened, that no mail matter shall be dispatched; that all mails not reaching their destination on Saturday shall hold over; and that the locks on all the canals shall be closed from Saturday at midnight to Sunday at midnight.
