Put The Blame on Julius
From Fish To Cake Recipes Calendars Give The Dope
Even though you may have broken all the resolutions you made Dec. 31 at least you can be satisfied that one contribution to better living has been made if you've put up a 1947 calendar.
After going through 365 days looking at the same pictures above the dates and memorizing the phases of the moon, it's good to be able to thumb through something new.
Little did Julius Caesar or Pope Gregory know when they prescribed their calendars that there were going to be so many different colorful and decorative ways to tell what day it is.
The Julian calendar originated by Caesar designated three years of 365 days each to be followed by one of 366 days. After some changes as to the number of days in a month the system was adopted in Europe and America.
The Hebrew calendar reckons the date of creation 3,760 years and three months before the birth of Christ.
Pope Gregory XIII prescribed what is now known as the Gregorian calendar which is now in use in all countries of the world as the national calendar.
A sporting goods outfit has produced a calendar which gives a running account of the best times to fish right down to the hour. Others are filled with information which covers everything from how to bake a cake to the multiplication tables.
If you just don't care about having a lot of calendars hanging around you might adopt the perpetual calendar. By mathematical deductions you can determine the number of the day of the week for any given month and year. For instance, if you can't remember what day of the week you attended that party back in 1945 the perpetual calendar will help.
The first step is to take the last two figures of the year, add $ \frac{1}{4} $ of them to that figure, neglecting the remainder. Then add for the month
January or October, 1; May, 2; August,
3; February, March, or November.
4; June, 5; September or December,
6; April or July, 0. If it is leap year you add for January, 0;
and for February, 3.
Then add the day of the month you are trying to determine, and divide the sum of the three by seven. The remainder, carried over from the division, is the number of the day of the week. These deductions apply only to the present century.
Right now the problem is still one of trying to find out when Christmas comes this year and when our own birthday rolls around.
You can start right now marking the days with red circles and in another week we'll all be accustomed to 1947.
'The Ice Man Cometh'— After Firemen Leave Theta's
The ice man cometh to the Theta's, now that the fireman hath been there before him.
There was a small fire in the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority kitchen Thursday afternoon, when the motor of the refrigerator caught fire. The city fire department was called, and only negligible damage resulted.
