“On Friday let the preparation for the Sabbath be completed. See that all
the clothing is in readiness and that all the cooking is done. Let the boots
be blacked and the baths be taken. It is possible to do this. If you make
it a rule you can do it. The Sabbath is not to be given to the repairing of
garments, to the cooking of food, to pleasure seeking, or to any other
worldly employment. Before the setting of the sun let all secular work be
laid aside and all secular papers be put out of sight. Parents, explain your
work and its purpose to your children, and let them share in your prepara-
tion to keep the Sabbath according to the commandment.” —Testimonies
for the Church, vol. 6, p. 355.
