The Russian Calendar,

The Russian government has, after
years of discussion, resolved to give up
the old style, or Julian, calendar,
which is twelve days behind the Gre
gorian system The old style was
source of great annoyance to Russian
merchants doing business with other
countries, who were forced to use both
dates. 1t was also annoying to for
eigners trading with Russia The st.
