§ 14. Processions and parades on Sunday. 1. All processions and
parades on Sunday in any city, excepting only funeral processions for
the actual burial of the dead, and processions to and from a place of
worship in connection with a religious service there celebrated, are
forbidden; and in such excepted cases there shall be no music,
fireworks, discharge of cannon or firearms, or other disturbing noise.
At a military funeral, or at the funeral of a United States soldier,
sailor or marine, or of a national guardsman, or of a deceased member of
an association of veteran soldiers, sailors or marines, or of a
disbanded militia regiment, or of a secret fraternal society, or of an
association of employees of the national, state, or municipal
governments, music may be played while escorting the body; also in
patriotic military processions on Sunday previous to Decoration day,
known as memorial Sunday, to cemeteries or other places where memorial
services are held, and also by organizations of the national guard or
naval militia or of an association of employees of the national, state,
or municipal governments, attending religious service on Sunday; but in
no case within one block of a place of worship where service is then
being celebrated. Music may also be played in any procession conducted
by a religious organization or society in connection with a religious
service or religious rally after one o'clock noon on Sunday.

2. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, it shall be lawful
to conduct, witness, participate or engage in processions or parades and
to play music in any such procession or parade on Sunday after two
o'clock in the afternoon, in a city, town or village, as shall be
permitted by a local law or ordinance heretofore or hereafter adopted by
the common council or other legislative body of a city, town or village
permitting such processions and parades on such day and after such hour.

3. This section shall not apply to a city with a population of one
million or more; provided, however, that if a parade or procession is
held in such city on Sunday before two o'clock in the afternoon there
shall be no music, fireworks, discharge of cannon or firearms, or other
disturbing noise in relation thereto within one hundred and fifty feet
of a place of worship.

4. A person wilfully violating any provision of this section is
punishable by a fine not exceeding twenty dollars or imprisonment not
exceeding ten days, or by both.
