EASTER STILL
IS WANDERER
Efforts to Establish It
, Being Made
Date Remains Subject of
Controversy Despite
Long Efforts
Washington, April 21 Many col
leges and schools have Riven up the
effort to have their "rcRular" spring
vacation include Easter day, since
this great religious festival may oc
cur on any date from March 22 to
April 25 inclusive.
. TTie date of Christmas was defi
nitely fixed in the fourth century,
but the date of Easter has been sub
jected to many controversies, it is
pointed out in n bulletin from the
, Washington, D. C, headquarters of
the National Geographic society.
Once Celebrated on Week Day
"During the second century," says
the bulletin, Asiatic Christians cele
brated Easter on the 14th day of the
month of wisan, the seventh month
of the Jewish calender, no matter
on what day of the week it occurred.
For this practice they were termed
wuartodecimans. European Chris
tians, however, insisted upon cele
brating the feast always on Sunday.
, 1 he council of Micaea (present
day Nice or Isnik in Astatic Turkey)
in-325 decided that Easter should be
the first Sunday after the full moon
which occurred on or immediately
following March 21. This was the
same council which produced the
Nicene creed which is used by
many of the Christian churches.
There were many differences in the
methods of reckoning time, and it
was not until after 664 that the Eng
lish and Irish accepted the Roman
on Nicene date for Easter.
Calendar Affected Easter
"Since the Nicene council, the
same method of determining Easter
has been employed, although there
has been a major calendar change
which affected Easter along with all
other dates. In March. 1582, Pope
uregory XSll ordered that the Ju
lidn calendar, the method of record
ing time instituted by Julius and
Augustus Caesar, be abandoned in
favor of the more accurate calendar
worked out by the great Neapolitan
astronomer Aloysius Lilius. This
calendar was called either the Greg
orian or new style calendar.
"At the time of Pope Gregory's
decree there was a difference of 10
days between the 'old style and the
new style - calendars, a difference
that would continue to increase be
cause of Julian errors. Catholic
countries soon adopted the Gregor
ian system, but it was not until 1752
that England and her colonies ac
cepted it By that time there was
a difference of 11 days in the two
systems. When the calendar change
was made in England, September
3, became September 14, 1752.
In some places mobs demonstrated
with the demand 'Give us back our
eleven days.'
."The Gregorian calendar has now
been accepted by most of the world,
Japan started using it in 1873, China
in 1912, Russia in 1918. Greece in
1923, and Turkey in 1927.
Calendar Change Proposed
"One of the most prominent re
cent movements for calendar re
form has been that for the inter
national fixed calendar which would
provide for 13 months of four 7-day
weeks. Sol, the name suggested for
the new month, would be pUced be
tween June and July. This 13
month calendar would make a year
of only 364 days, so December would
be given an extra day called year
day. February would not vary in
length as it now does. In leap
years it would have only 28 days.
The extra day would be June 29.
leap-day. This system would work
violence to many present customs.
Its accomplishment would be to
provide a permanent calendar with
the same num'oer of weeks in each
month and the same date for each
day of every month.
"A second and less drastic reform
ALL-BRAN RELIEVED
HIS CONSTIPATION
Delicious Cereal Brought New
Health to Mr. Bartholomew
We quote from his voluntary let
ter: "I had considerable trouble
with my stomach. Digestion was'
out of the question. I got medicine
which gave me only temporary
relief.
"Then I thought of taking All
BjtAN. I started eating a cereal dish
ful two or three times a day.
"It has been over a year now
Bince I ate that first dish of bran,
but from that day to this I have had
the pleasure of enjoying the proper
functioning of the digestive organs.
"Thanks to All-Bran. I still cat
it regularly and like it better all
the time." Lester Bartholomew,
Cadillac, Mich.
Constipation is usually due to
lack of "bulk" to exercise the intes
tines, and vitamin B to promote
elimination. .All-Bran supplies
both, as well as iron for the blood.
The "bulk" fn All-Bran is much
like that of leafy vegetables. Cer
tainly this food is more natural
than taking harmful patent medi
cines. Two tables poonfuls daily
will overcome most types of consti
pation. With each meal in chronic
cases. If not relieved thia way, see
your doctor.

proposes a 12-month year with eight
months of 30 days and 4 months
of 31 days, as against the present
system which in ordinary years has
seven months of 31 duvs, four of
30 days and one of 28 days. Tins
would give an irregular number of
weeks in a month, and the week
days would not fall nn the satne dnte
in each month. In addition, it would
be necessary to have one 'leap day'
every year and two in leap year.
Both wutild be 'blank davs and
would permit the calendar to be a
perpetual one. Under this plan
January 1 would alwnvs fall on the
same day of the week.
"The equalization of the quarters
of the year, each quarter containing
two months of 30 davs and one
month of 31 days, is a third pro
posed reform. Here again the an
nual 'leap day would be necessary.
but it would not be a blank. As
result the calendar would not be
perpetual. Although this last Dro
posal would occasion less change
from the present system than the
other two, it would result merely
in an improved variable calendar.
The variable aspect of the Gregor
tan calendar is the evil which most
reforms are endenvorine to avoid.
Want Quarters Equal
"Much of the calendar reform
agitation comes from accountants
and statisticians who would like to
have a three month period to con
tain the same number of days in
stead of 90 (91 in leap year), 91.
92 and 92 as at present The sal
aried person also finds it difficult
to budget his income if his salary
must cover expenses for only 28
days one month and be stretched to
cover 31 days the next Magazines
which are issued according to date
are inconvenienced when the date
occurs on Sunday. If rent day comes
on Sunday, the collector prefers to
nave his money the dav before
rather than the day after the stipu
lated time.
'To solve these problems, num
erous organizations have been stu
dying calendar changes for a num
ber of years. In 1922 the congress
of the International Astronomical
union took up the question. As a
result of this agitation, the matter
was added to the agenda of the com
mittee on communications and tran
sit of the league of nations in 1923.
After sun-eying the problem, this
committee decided that there are no
insurmountable difficulties for a
calendar reform, but that its first
step must be to obtain the sanction
of various authorities. Not only re
ligious groups but also governments
and international associations, such
as chambers of commerce, postal
unions, trade groups, teachers' as
sociations, women's clubs, etc., were
asked to express opinions on cal
endar changes. The committee re
ceived 185 plans of reform. From
these it resolved the three major
plans outlined above. The commit-

tee may advocate a definite plan for
world acceptance at the league of
nations meeting in September, 1933.
cjigland has been interested in
calendar reform and especially in
the fixing of a date for Easter,. In
1938 parliament passed a law, con-
ditional upon international accept
ance, establishing Easter on the fixed
date which had been recommended
by the league of nations' committee.
This date, which presupposes Jio
calendar change, is the first Sunday
after the second Saturday in April."
