FEBRUARY, OF FIVE
SUNDAYS, 29 DAYS, IS UNIQUE MOUTH February, which will be ushered in next Sunday, will be an unusual month in many respects,' not only because It is leap year, but because it will have five Sundays and 29 days. - The last time this occurred February with five Sunday and, 29 days was ln the year 1880 40 years of a leap. Previous to this time there were ln the 19th century two more years in which February had five Sundays and 29 days, the years, 1852 and 1824, and they were preceded by a forty-year leap.
The next February with five Sun
days will occur, ln 1948 and again in
1976, and again ln 2004, which Is the end of the 400 cycle, when the dates ln which February has five Sundays
will be repeated in the same order
previous to the year 2404 until 2404
and then repeat again.
This Is the 400 year cycle. There is
also a 28-year cycle and a four-year cycle. Leap year occurs .every-"fbur
years except on the years 170, leuo,
1900 and 2100. etc. The number can
not be divided by 300 or the two right hand figures cannot be divided by four without a remainder. But when the two right hand figures of the
given year can be divided by four without a remainder it Is a leap year.
If one remains' it is the first after leap year, If two the second and If three
the third. But when the two right
hand places are naught, cut them off and divide the left hand figures by 4 and nothing remains it is a leap year, but if one, two or . three remains it is a common year. The common year consists of 365 days of 62 weeks, and one day over. The day of the month goes backwards one day every common year, so that in such a year, if the beginning or first day is on Sunday, the next year It will be on Saturday, the next on Friday and so on. Leap year consists of 366 days or 52 weeks and two days over. The beginning of the next year goes back two days, so every fourth year is leap year, and as there are seven days ln the week, then the same order of the day in the month and the day in the week only returns in four times seven or 28 years, which if there was no Interruption by leap year would return in seven years. Hence the invention of the solar cycle of 28" years on the expiration of which the same days of the week are restored successively to the same days of the month. So that the leap year In which the first day of January comes on Thursday the month of February will have five Sundays and 29 days.
