WOULD TINKER CALENDAR.

The plan OF reforming the Gregor-

In a calendar so amended the year
would always begin with Monday.
July 4 would always be Wednesday.
Christmas Tuesday. Washington's
Birthday Thursday. Lincoln's birthday
Sunday. It is even proposed TO aban-
don the elaborate calculation by which
the date Of Easter Sunday is now de-
termined and make IL always April 4.
