LENT WILL BEGIN
LATER THIS YEAR
SOCIAL ACTIVITIES MAY CON-
TlNUE LONGER THAN USUAL
AS EASTER is LATE.

Those who believe in the strict OBJ.
servance of the lenten period and who
during the penitential season forego
all social functions and amusements
may continue these activities this year
for nearly three weeks longer than
they did last season when Ash We'd
nesday fell on February 5, and Easter
on March 90, just one day later than
the earliest possible date.
Easter is late this year. later than it
has been for two years, and does not
come until April IL. Ash Wednesday
falls on February Is, giving ample op-
portunity for celebration of st. Valen-
tine day or George Washington's birth
day with dances or costume balls.
According to the decree of the Coun-
Gil of Nice, Easter is always the first
Sunday after the full moon that falls
on or after the verbal equinox, on
March FL. If the full moon comes on
Sunday, Easter is celebrated week
later.
The day of the full moon is ascer-
tanned by certain calendar rules which
have to do with the finding of the
golden number, the exact and the
dominical letter, and may vary from
the astronomical or actual full moon.
This year the dominica letter is D,
the golden number Is, and the epact.
Easter in 1915 will fall on April 4,
and in 1916 will be later than it has
been since 1906, when it came on April
%. The dates of all the movable feasts
of the year are dependent upon Easter
