HEED |S HELD ON CHARGE OF MURDER
 IN HERW|TZ CASE

Burt Heed yesterday was held to answer to the superior court by Jus tlce Mckee after a hearing on a charge of murder. Heed was committed to the county jail when he failed to fur- nish bond of s5,000. The charge against Heed arises from the death of Edward Herwitz on Dec. Il from the ei1ects Of bullet wound received the night before in the home of w. H. Fin ley on Devonshire lane justeast of Sev- enth street
 The hearing, which began last Thure- day and was postponed on Friday closed yesterday afternoon after the oefense had put on one witness. At the close of the defendants case. L. M Laney made a motion that Heed be held to answer and F. Louis Zimmer- man counsel for the defendant, moved that be he dismissed on the grounds tnat the state had failed to prove the aiegation contained in the information for murder. Justice Mckee ordered Heed held to the superior court.
 Mrs. Ethel Cooper was the only wit ness put on by the defense. She is a sister in-law of the defendant. and was one or the eye witnesses of the shoot ing. Mrs. Cooper had made a state ment at the office of the county attor- ney the day after the shooting took place and also had testified at the in- quest. Her statements yesterday va lted from those made in the county at torney's office and at the inquest She said she was angry with Heed at the time she made the other statements and not tell all the facts
 She said the two men auarreled in front of the Dublin garage on West Jefferson street just prior to the shoot ing because Heed attempted to pull his wife from an automobile and Herwitz held on to her. Mrs. Cooper said she took her sister home in the car belong ing to George Holmes. At the house she said, the two men resumed theil quarreling. Heed. she said, told Her witz that he, Heed. did not have to tel his side of tho quarrel, and Herwit; said. "rll make you tell" and started , toward Heed. At that moment, sh, said she heard a shot and saw Herwit; fall She said she ran to his sside anC he said, My God, Sweets. he has go me-"
 Just after the three men reached tt the Finley home, Mrs. Cooper said Herwitz asked her for her pearl han dled autoEoatic gun but she refused t' let him have it. She said she though she knew what he wanted with tn gun. She admitted that Herwitz ap preached Heed in an ordinary walk and said she saw him make no effort t strike Heed. She admitted that sh had been engaged to Herwitz and men ft1oned two or three different date Nupon which she had becVme engaged t him.
 Mrs. Cooper admitted that her father W. H. Finley had ordered Heed t pack his things and get out because O the alleged rough treatment accorde his daughter by the son-in-law. Sh said she did not see the gun wit which the shot was fired until it wa produced at the inquest. Neither Hee nor his wife took the stand.

"The most logical starting points for the year would seem to be summer and winter solstices and the spring and equinoXes; and all of them have been made to mark the beginnings Of the years in some parts of the world. The Gregorian calendar. that is now in use in the United States and through out most of the Christian world, is the Julian calendar slightly modified. When Julius Caesar caused it to be con structed, the beginning of the year, January l, was placed seven days after the winter solstice, and not in con- Junction with it as logic would seem to dictate. The Julian year was made, hY means of the leap year device. 365.25 days long, which was an excess over the true year of II minutes and If sec onds. This excess caused the nominal January l to creep gradually far
 and farther beyond the winter sol stIce so that by the time of the Church Council of Nice in 325 1t was Il days beyond the solstice Snsteal of seven New Year Day Moving Toward Summer
 By the time of Pope Gregory's cor rection in 15S2, January 1 was 21 days beyond the solstice and Christmas n beyond. If the calendar had remained uncorrected, New Year day would have gone on creeping forward. first into spring, then into summer, and finally completely around the year.
 When the correction was made the calendar was turned back not to its original position in the time of Julius Caesar, but to it's place at the time o1 the Council of Nice. December 25 which became Christmas, then fell four days after the winter solstice instead oi coinciding with it as Julius Caesar in | frr, fI1d. t,fI i i days beyond the solstice instead D, Caesars almost equally arbitrary sev- en. The calendar is now kept prac. tically at its Gregorian resting place b, the expedient of failing to add the ex- tra leap year day three times in tn, course of 400 years--on the century years not devisable by 400. The re lnaining error is so slight that it woul. amount to little more than a day il 100000 years.
 Greeks Stick to Faulty Calendar
 Tn the meantime, the countries il which the Greek church is dominan have refused to accept the Gregorial corrections and continue to use the ol,
 style or Julian calendar. The differ cnce, which was 10 days in 1882, ha now increased to 13 days.
 Soviet Russia has officially adopte
 the Gregorian calendar for civil pur poses and the same step has been take
 by most of the Baltic states made up o
 territory of the farmer Russian empire
 The Gregorian or New Style calenda
 is also coming into more general us
 in Asia due to the commercial pene
 tration of western countries. AS a re
 suit of the great war, directly or indi
 rectly, the world is now closer than a
 any time in its history to having | single, astronomically correct system (
 measuring time."

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 5I-"The American is apt to regard his New Year as the New Year. Had he a pen chant for celebrating holidays he could travel in a more or less leasurely way around the world, and in the course of the year could participate in six or seven New Year festivities, adding couple of Christmas celebrations for good measure, according to a bulletin from the Washington, D. L. headquar- ters of the National Geographic So- ciety.
 "Our American might start his pro- pressive holiday jaunt by going to some western European country for the ap- preaching New Year which the United States too will celebrate. He could then travel to Greece, Jugo- Slavia, Ru- mania, or Bulgaria in time for Christ mas in those countries. Christmas is also December 9 in the countries named, according to their calendars but corresponds to January l in America.
 A Five Day New Year Period In China
 By remaining a week in the same country he could also spend New Year day, called January 1, but correspond ing with the American and western European January IA. By pushing on and making good connections he might be able to reach Singapore, or by sup plementing steamers with airplanes could reach China itself to take part in the most thorough going New Year celebration in the world, the Chinese | New Year which will be observed n | 1921 for the five days from about Feb ruary 8 to IS.
 After the Chinese New Year cele- 1 bration the traveller could pursue his | Lnlfdaxr h1rr1ffprr while. He could arrange to arrivS in SIam in time for the Siamese New Year on April 1, and afterward could Fhave five months of sightseeing be-
 fore reaching Arabia for the Moham medan New Year on September 4. He could then cross the Red Sea and make a quick journey into Abyssinia to take part in the New Year festivities of thai
 country on September 10. Returning tC I the Red Sea and taking a steamer
 north he could easily reach Jerusalem
 in eood time for the Hebrew New Year October 3.
 "The holiday hunter would now have
 taken part in all the principal New
 Year celebrations of the world anC
 could return to the Western hemi.
 sphere to spend the Christmas witt
 which he is most familiar at his owr
 hearth side. In six days less than
 year he would have chalked up sever
 New Year and two Christmas celebra
 tions to his credit.
 Worlds Calendars in a TangIe

 the fact that our calendar is largely al
