Description: 1923 article from an Ontario newspaper about the hubbub caused by a suggestion to allow children to use a municipal swimming pool during a heat wave.
The Catholic Record, Sept. 1, 1923.     A short time ago this staid city of London experienced a tempest in a teapot over Sabbath observance. It was proposed to allow the children to use the municipal swimming pool during the sweltering weather we were then having. Immediately there was a ministerial chorus of protest. One reverend Boanerges valiantly declared that they would not rest until they had routed "the hosts of hell." Presumably he saw in apocalyptic vision the infernal armies lined up behind His Worship the Mayor and others in their impious assault on the sanctity of "the Sabbath."
