Double Holidays

Next year Washington’s birth day, Memorial day and the Fourth of July all fall on Saturday giving the public three “double holidays.” Ordinarily these three do not fall on the same day, but by the intervention of February 29, next year * Washington’* birthday falls just fourteen weeks earlier than Memorial day, which regularly comes five weeks before the Fourth.
