Her husband pass- ed away 1n 1918. She had been in good health until three months ago since when she was in 'bed''; moat of 4he time and became s'erlously ill on Friday.

Interment was made in the adjioining cetnetel'y. I was quite ,thankful last s•prinig t the merchants and tradespeople wh presented me with, ,calendars at 't yearn end, says tele rbert B. Nichols, i The Boston Monitor, for the Galen dars were very good to me. They d creed such. an early Easter my veildecided she'd do without a new sprin outfit. Perhaps the stares woad have pr ferrel a late Easter. Penhaps the would like a late Easter every year Maybe everyone would. But just a long we go on year after year wit an 18th century calendar, our cultur and modern streamlined busines must bow before -custom and incon veni-ence. - What's wrong with it? Well, fo one thing, whoever suggested .ilia Easter ,should swing across the cal en'dar through, an arc of six weeks following the": formula, "the Sunda after the first full moon after th Vernal equinox"? Not only must merchant! study th calendar and the long-range weenie prediction carefully before orderin or not ordering stock for an enthusi- astic Faster.astic or frozen Faster.parade, (any- where from March 22' to April 25)• but business men of all 'fields conscious - 1y or unconsciously pay for calendar vagaries. It-w'as good. to have a vacillating Easter in the days when pilgrimages to the Holy Land on foot were popu- lar, andweary travellers needed the light of a full mo-on,to travel by, but the need. of 321 A. D. is not that of 1940. If our antique calendar were mere- ly 'a nuisance, it ,.might he tolerated, but the management and control of modern business, science, education, Commerce, • agriculture and labor is aceomplisihed on the basis of statisti- cal data. The additional work reedit- ed to juggle figures around; to ,fit cal- endar :inequalities can be -.translated directly into dollars. Isn t akes as big a d,ifferenoe in some concerns w;het'her . there_ are four o'r five paydays in a month, as it does in most families. In 1936, February had one of ;.hose fifth. pay- days, mare .it's true for such a . runt month, but it spelled the last stravii for at Least one con:Dern, tossed in thefinancial: storm. There's really no need for Febru- ary to be so alighted:. Once Upon a time it was as big as the others but: Julius Caesar stole a day ,for his month of July, and then ,Augustus Caesar took another for August. That leaves fewer "covers" for one chilly month, while the rest revel in 30 or 31 sumdi Other visions of the • year Suffer likewise. Dividing the year of 365 days, six hours, nine minutes and 9.6 seconds into halves, (according to ;h the calendar) we have in the first half :either, 181 or 182 days and the last !half, 184. Divide it into quar- tets for statietica1 reasons and there th are from 90 to 93 days: in each. There are other troubles, too. The year never begins en the same week- day twice in succession. Monthdates and days of the week never correspond and mlontlrs do ..not 'nec- sss'arily have the same manlierof Sundays, Friday or Saturdays.

Contrary to popular belief the cab ender isn't a static institution. Eduard Meyer'Sn 1904 advanced the year 4231 B. C. as the probable date of the calendar's birth, but according to Di- rectar Emeritus H. 10. Winlock of hhe Metropolitan Museum of Art, ev- en ancient Egypt's calendar couldn't have emerged suddenly but bioarned and prospered from very primitive he - ginning : Probably it d,ep:ended initially up- on the close of the Nile's annual rise and fail. At first it was undoubted- ly a simple :divis'ion of the.:.year into three seasons, flood', .spring and low water or harvest, according to Dr. Winlock. The 4231 B. C. date was advanced becauee, that was the year the tiered -came at the same time the sun, ;rose far enough to the east of Sirius, the dog star, for that body to'. be seen above the horizon just be- fore sunrise. Of all the plans advocated for a 20th century change in the calendar, perhaps that of the World Calendar Association is beat, for it would ac- curately adjust many of the present difficulties with the least radical changes. Sponsored by naterral saeien- tiste and busiflessmen alike, it 'calls for 12 Months, the firs;{ in each quar-' ter to bave 81 days and the last two to have 30. Year -End Day or De- cember Y, follows December 30, and Leap Year Day when it comes along ivitl be Jenne L, following ,Tune 30th. Both would be legal holidays.
