Supplement to EVENING ROSEBURG R VIEW MAUCH 11, 1012. CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF. A RATIONAL CALENDAR. The calendar and the hours of the day seem to most of us almost like liart of the natural and immutable order of things, and however much trouble the present indefensible sys tem caused, men have felt that It was rasa almost Impious to suggest a change In It. "Give us back our eleven days!" cried the mob when the Gregorian calendar was Intro duced Into Great Britain. From the days of Julius Caesar to our own, he has been a bold reformer indeed who would suggest changes in the dis orderly procession of the months. Now enters Moses B. Cotsworth, of Victoria. B. C, with a proposal for a rational calendar. He would divide the year Into thirteen months, each of 28 days, which would leave one ex tra day in the year, and this he beau tifully plans as a free day for every one free from Interest charges on moneq, the necessity to work, the wage scale, etc. Then each month would commence on Sunday and the first, eighth, fifteenth and twenty second days of each month would be Sundays. President Hadley of Yale Is quoted as saying that the month of wour weeks "will come as a commer cial necessity." The adjustment to the change would be very small com pared to that necessitated when standard time was introduced on transcontinental railways. Mr. Cots worth has literature to distribute pok ing fun at the present system. If he wtns. says the Jaurnal of the Ameri can Medical Association, school child ren need no longer learn: "Thirty days hath September," Itutional Holiday Schedule. A writer In the Survey observes that the Irregular distribution of the holidays throughout the year and their changing coincidence with the days of the week often entail hard ship on the workadayworld. "For In stance, when a holiday falls on Tues day or Friday, many business con cerns seize the opportunity In dull times to cut their payroll by closing : down on the Monday preceding or Saturday following, thus enforcing a two-day holiday with corresponding loss to the employee; then again, when such holidays fall In mid-week, the holiday spirit on the days pre ceding and following seriously in terferes with the efficiency of the worker, and thus Involves a hardship on the employer." The remedy pro posed is the transposition of most holidays to Monday and their more even distribution throughout the year; thus Washington Day would be observed on the Monday following February 22. Lincoln Day on the first Monday In April, and so on. "This order would secure for our Industrial army a two and one-half days' respite from toll, with loss of only one day's nav. and would insure for the em' nloyer a 'etter week's product from five consecutive days' labor after two and one-half days' rest." The re former excepts Christmas and New Year's Day from the working of this rule, but he certainly ought to make the reformation complete and include them, savs the Journa! of the Amerl' can Medical Association, and, while the oneratlne Instruments are stern lzed and ready, free Easter from Its " adhesions to the vernal equinox by giving It a definite date. o Big spring shipment of needlework Just arrived at Graves' Art Empor ium.
