continue his education, securing
his Bachelor, and 8 years later
his Masters degree.

Uncle Ruy's Corner By Romon cottmon

The other day a 9-year-old girl
asked me this question:
why do we have leap years?"
With Leap Years Day close at
hand, many other persons probably
are wondering about the same
point.
The answer, in short, is that we
must have leap years to keep our
calendar from getting out of line.
A year is the time it takes the
earth to make a complete trip
around the sun. This is 365 days
and almost one-fourth of a day
extra.
Let us suppose that we forgot
about that extra part of day, and
always had 365-day years. In a
century. that would make a differ
ence of about three and half
weeks. In eight centuries, the diff
ference would amount to more than
half year! People then would
have to celebrate Christmas in July!
In ancient times. some men knew
that the true year has a bit more
than 365 days. They used to correct
| their calendars from time to time,
to keep the months In the proper
season.

Romans, ordered a calendar to be
followed with every fourth year hav-
ing an extra day. After that, people
spoke about the Julian Calendar" "
Everything would have gone along
fine except for this fact: the true
year has just little less than one
fourth of day extra. That small
difference added up to 10 days dur
ing the 16 centuries after Caesar.
Two Italian scientists-Lilius and
Clavius-did a great deal of work
to figure out better calendar, and
this was adopted. The new plan
was named the Gregorian calendar
because it was approved, and or
dered inside certain area, by Pope
Gregory XIII.
The Gregorian calendar has an
extra day once in four years, ex-
cept that it is left out during some
OF the century years." When the
new calendar was adopted in Italy,
people went to sleep in the evening
OF what they called the fourth day
OF October, and woke up on what
was called the fifteenth day of Oc-
tober! This may sound as though
they slept for 10 and half days,
but the trouble came from losing
10 calendar days.
