BEGUN ON FRIDAY AND ENDS ON FRIDAY.

AThe year Ito 9 started on Friday and ends on Friday, but fortunately through its entire course there is but one instance where there is a combination of the'double hoodoo, Friday the 13th. This occurs in Augustjc The “first legal holiday is February 12, Lincoln’s birthday, which also falls on Friday. Washington’s birthday is Monday, February 22, Valentine day comes Sunday, February 14.

Easter Sunday falls on April 11, which is considerably earlier than last year, when the date was unusually late. It probably will be a source of much regret to the small boy to learn that the Fourth of July falls on Sunday during the new year. However, in such a case the day following will be observed. Consequently saloons will have to close on Monday as well as on any other week day of other legal holidays. Labor day is the first Monday in September. The date is September Thanksgiving is the last Thursday in November and is the 25th day. Christmas, December 25, falls on Saturday and in 1910 will come on Sunday. Hallowe'en, October 31, comes on Sunday and April Fool’s day on Thursday. £ - ■ ■ ~.: t
