Sir, 1 notice in oik* of your la 1 c papers 1 hat Marco Eosclla says there is no "harm in a younf>* man taking 1 a little healthy cxcrcise by playing' football on a Sunday. Well, Mr Editor, I think that this is wrong. If a man wants to run he is quite able to get it during' the week, because there is no mail that 1 know of that can not get off to play a game of hockey or football during' the weelc, unless he works on a farm and then he will lind that there is plenty of running to do without playing* football. Besides this reason, we have before us the commandments which say " Keiuember that tliou keep holy the Sabbath Day, and 1 maintain that a man that gets kicked on the neck once or twice is likely to forget that it is Sunday. Well, now, I don't want to be dragged into a religious argument, but it' "The Coniinaiidinents" were obeyed there would not be much .trouble. — I am ,et<\, TAKAWEIIANA.
