Those enacted by our forefathers may excite a smile, yet they show that they were no time-servers that they were consci- entious and in earnest. In New England the laws noticed those who dressed more richly than their wealth would justify ; they would not permit the man who defrauded his creditors to live in luxury; those who did not vote, or would not serve when elected to office, they fined for their want of patriotism ; they forbade "drinking of healths as a bad habit ;" they prohibited the ...wear- ing of embroidered garments and laces ; they discour- aged the use of "ribbons and great boots;" sleeves must reach to the wrist, and not be more than half an ell wide; no one under twenty years of age was allowed to use tobacco, unless prescribed by a physi- cian; those who used it publicly were fined a six- pence; all persons were restrained from "swimming in the waters on the Sabbath-day, or unreasonably walking in the fields or streets. " In Virginia we see the same spirit. In every settle- ment there was to be "a house for the worship of God.
