Gregorian Calendar Was Slow, in Adoption Great Britain and her colonies adopted th e . Gregorian calendar in 1752; the Julian calendar having be­ come 11 days slow by that time, par­ liament ordered that the day fol­ lowing September 3, 1752, would be September 14, and that the legal year should begin on January 1. The Gregorian calendar is, in ef­ fect, a revision edition of the old Roman calendar. The ancient Ro­ man year began with the month of March and ended with December, the 10th month. January and Feb­ ruary were added in the course of time and the celebration of New Year’s on January 1 began in 452 B. C. Continental Europe had universal­ ly adopted the Gregorian calendar by 1700 but Great Britain, ftowning upon anything originating in Rome as Popish, continued the use of the old calendar—with its legal year be­ ginning on March 25—until the con­ fusion arising from using a differ­ ent calendar than the one used by continental Europe prompted the adoption of the Gregorian calendar in 1752, Children’s Day New Year’s in Bulgaria Bulgarian children receive small gifts on Christmas Day from Grand­ pa Koleda—an ancient winter god— but New Year’s D ay .is really the children’s holiday. Dressed in their newest and best clothes, the youngsters bear gifts to their elders; they receive pres­ ents and small sums, of money in return. In rural communities the older children visit neighbors: switching the householder with cor­ nel rods, they wish him a happy and prosperous New Year. The word “sui'va” is repeated frequently—the visitors expecting to be served with goodies—but if the supply J s ex­ hausted, the situation is accepted with characteristic good humor. The holiday season climaxes tin Epiphany. The orthodox priest leads a procession to the river and, com­ memorating Christ’s baptism, tosses a cross into the water; sometimes the ice has to be broken, but youths dive 'for the cross unhesitantly—the retriever supposedly receiving a special blessing, First WatchNight Service Held hyPioneers in 1770 In addition to the more or less hilarious secular celebrations on New Year's Eve, many religious de­ nominations hold t special “watch- night" services from nine or ten to twelve o'clock.

Phone 6-1941 NORTHEASTERN STATES UNITE AGAINST MsCARREN’S FLAN T i l Dann O. Taber The Ohio Development and Pub­ licity Commission has joined with the development agencies of 10 other Northeastern states in an effort to prevent heavily financed promotional groups of the. west and south from gaining legislation that will take .away much of this sec­ tion’s industrial wealth and popu­ lation. Dann 0. Taber, executive secre­ tary of the Ohio Development and Publicity Commission, represents Ohio’s interests in the group that was organized last week in Hart­ ford, Conn., under the name of the Northeastern States Development Agencies. Taber was one of the first to raise protest to the McCar- ren Resolution Committee's claims that the northeastern section was overpopulated and over industrial­ ized and that industry should be taken away from here and trans­ planted to the southern and western states. The McCarren resolution gave rise to freight rate cases which have been in litigation involving the Interstate Commerce Commis­ sion’s- attempt to favor southern and western regions. The Federal Power Commission and other fed­ eral agencies subsequently have thrown their weight into aiding the two regions also. The last movement was to in­ troduce . legislation in Congress providing for a full slate of favor­ able legislation to build the south and west and take away mainly from the northeastern states. Taber claims that the situation is becoming more serious daily and that the battle is constantly mount­ ing in. intensity with the western and southern groups employing every possible promotional, pub­ licity force to attain their goal of transplanting factories and people.
