WHERE DO CALENDAR
MEN GET EXTRA DAY?
Explanation Is Given AS To Why
Extra Day Is Tackled On
February This Year

ATLANTA, March 5.-Where do
the calendar makers get the extra
day which they tack on to February
every four years?
Most of thefpeople take the extra
day as matter of course without
caring from whence it comes, or
they will answer very vaguely that
the year has 365 Ia days in it, and
therefore, every four years the ex-
ira pieces accumulate to make an
other day.
The facts are, as pointed out by
an Atlanta student of such matters,
that a solar year has 365 days, 3
hours, AZ minutes, 45.51 seconds IN
it. That is the length of time it
takes the earth to travel completely
around the sun. This fraction of
the day is 674,49 seconds less than
a fourth of a day, but for practical
purposes it can be called a fourth.
What, would happen if this extra
day were not added every four
years? Simply this: The equinox,
or the 21st of March and Septem-
Der when the days and nights are
of equal length, instead of staying
on those dates would fall later il
the month at the rate of one day
ever four years. Soon this would
throw the calendar out of order.
Although the calendar makers try
to avoid this situation by adding a
day every fourayears. the fact that
the complete revolution Of the earth
around the sun is 674,49 seconds
less than 365 IA days, or about
eleven minutes year less than the
calendar that uses the full one
fourth of day.
This makes the true equinox slip
farther up in the month at the rate
of about eleven minutes a year, or
one day in about $50 years. But to
offset even this veriation, Pore
Gregory XIII in 1882 corrected the
ten days error that had developed
fro mthe use of the Julian calendar
since the fourth century and de-
creed that every centesimal year
that is not evenly divisable by 400
shall not be leap year. This re-
duces the leakage of the days to
a minimum. In all other instances
the leap year falls on the years that
are divisible by four.
