Is endeavoring to increase the salo
of war savings securities. All hnv-
tion has been formed and it is now
at work trying to persuade Congress
and the public that its proposed re
form is desirable. Remembering that
the calendar has been made over al
ready a number of times, on each
with a view to simplifying It, we may
consider the latest proposal with
open minds.
The plan is to divide the year Into
13 months, instead of the present 12.
The extra month' would be called
Liberty and would follow February.
Each of the 13 would have exactly
28 days, or four weeks each, and
each would begin on Monday. New
Years day would become an inde
pendent legal holiday and would not
be included in any week or month.

"Correction day.
The advantage that strikes one at
once is the arrangement by which the
days of the month are made to coin
cide with the same days of the week
the year around.' Monday would
always be the 1st, the 8th, the loth,
or the 22nd. No longer would we
have to mumble "Thirty Days Hath
November, April June and Septem
ber," etc., or run over our knuckles
to dicover where we were in the
month.' All would have 28 days and
that is all there would be to It.
As listed by the association ther
advantages are that:
would always come due on the same
day of the week it was given. The
plan also provides that Good Friday
and Easter Sunday shall always be
observed on certain fixed dates. This
was contemplated when our present
calendar was adopted." -
Folks who are interested are urged
by the association to ask their con
gressmen to support the measure.
