CALENDAR REFORM It is universally conceded that our present calendar, with months ranging from 28 to 31 days in length, presents cer- tain disadvantages because of that lack of uniformity. Many plans have been’ sug- gested for rearranging the days of the year, so as to equalize the length of the months. 2 ~The late George Eastman devoted considerable time and money to an effort to secure adoption of a calendar with 13 months of 28 days each, making the extra day an additional holiday. In leap years there would be two such holidays. Under his plan each date in every month would fall on the same day of the week. The extra holidays would not be considered as belonging to any month. ‘The popular man is the guy who tells Editorial comment: Many 2! youngster has gotten on the wrong! track and wound up in jail be-; cause a switch was misplaced in his home. eed and inexpensive article for the Adjutant George Marshall, young people’s secretary for the Salvation Army, left the city yes-| terday afternoon after a * H days visit of imspection in Key) West.
