"Remember the sabbath day"

[Of Special Interest to Children]

DENICE R. KOCH

The fourth commandment begins (Ex. 20:8), "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy." Jean never failed to remember these words after what happened at school one year.

Jean attended the Christian Science Sunday School every Sunday. Once in a while Ellen, her little neighbor, went with her. But Ellen's parents usually went to their farm out in the country on Sunday mornings, and of course Ellen went along.

Very early one snowy Sunday morning Ellen, all excited, came over to invite Jean to go with her and her parents to the farm. They would leave at nine o'clock with skis, sleds, and skates so that they could skate, coast, and ski to their heart's content; then they would have dinner at the farmhouse. But Jean's father said that Jean could not accept the invitation. "I'm sorry, dear, but this is Sunday; and Sunday School must come first," he said.
