ST. LOUIS, Mo-, April 11.-An i'm

NEW CALENDAR TO

Extra Month Called Liberty

February and MarCh-NeW
Years Day Unattached.

ST. PAUL, April 10. (Spl.)--If some
day during what you will suppose is
the month Of March, in this year OF
world federation, you get a letter from
Minneapolis with a peculiar date line,
let this be an explanation.
Incorporated under the laws of Min
nesota Is the American Equal Month

Us one-idea cranks, but ordinary
money-grahbing folk who would scorn
being classed as Performers"
They have set out on a slow, patient
effort to do over again what civilisa-
tlon has done a number of times in
recorded history-this time they pro-
pose to do it right-that is, to make
q calendar that win be every year the
same.
Briefly, 1t is to have each month con-
sist of four weeks; that is 2S days.
This will give n additional month
besides the IL we now have. which it
is proposed to call the month of Lib
erty,"
But, as the year consists of Se5 DAYS
t~roughly speaklng.) this yeaves one day
extra. All right, they call that New
Years day, which Is a holiday anyway,
and they do not include It any week
or month.
Then. In addition, to take care of
the extra day in leap year, these men
from Minneapolis propose that every
four years we have a correction day.
or some call II second new years day
IA custom which has been generally
observed In the Scandinavian coun-
tries, And as once every 100 ear
leap year is omitted (unless the num-
Der of the year is divislble by 400)
the calendar seems fixed for ali time,
One, two, three, and the trick Is done
But, the world is not all as ready
to change established customsv-even
a ones-as these men of Minneapolis
so they have Incorporated and are pre-.
pared for a long and steady pull.
They have started II off as though

earth; and the day is made by the

one complete turn on its aXis-all facts
SO familiar hat most of us never
think about them as united into a sys-

AS the ancients had a very limited
knowledge of astronomy; furthermore,
had no instruments of precision, their

set the calendar in line with astronomy.
The latest Of those was when, under
Pope Gregory, In l577, new style" was
established by setting the worlds alma

Washington's actual birthday was not

In protest oil the ridiculous grounds
that by moving the calendar ahead 10
days, the lives Of the people would be
shortened that certain number OF days.

reached whenever practicable. The
public has been invited to talk about
the new Liberty calendar and those
who feel that it Is a good are
