| EASTER ST'VDAY TO BK
FIXKD BY OONTKREYCK
I
Rome—The Vatican has announc
ed that a conference of astronomer'*
will take place in Rome next April
I under the presidency of Cardinal
I Mercier. with the object of reform
• lng the calendar and fixing Easter.
The occurrence this year of Ess
ter Sunday on March 27, within fire
day* of its earliest possible date, re
rived the proposal for a fixed Eas
ter. No fewer than 16 Easters mill
happen in March between now and
the close of this century—an aver
age of one e»ery tve years—unless
something is done to prevent the
erratic wandering of the festival be
tween March S2 and April 25.
I'nder the existing ecclesiastical
rnli Keaster Sunday can fall on any
of 34 dat«» The present rule is
th at Easter must be a Sunday and
that the ecclesiastical full moon
(which is not the same as the real
: moon* upon which it depends must
| occur on one of the seven davs im
| mediately proceeding It. Thus, to
! have Easter Sunday on its earliest
: date. March 22. the ecclesiastical
; moon must be full on March 21.
! which date must also be a Saturday.
> but so rarely are these conditions
! satisfied In the same years that It
j is over a century s-lnce Eeaster fell
t on March 22. and It mill not again
; fall so early until the year 2286.
Of late years the inconvenience of
a movable Easter has induced calen
! dar reformers to produce reforms
! which will either make Easter a ix
I ed festival or greatly restrict its
| wanderings. One suggestion is that:
; Eastern Sunday should be assigned ]
; to the third Snndav after the spring
> equinox, which would give it a range
i of e ght dayR, between April 5 and
! April 13. according to the date and
' day of the week on which the equl
: nox falls.
Other proposals aim at an Easter
| absolutely fixed on one date. That
; of course, would necessitate a rad
; cal change of the whole calenda
under which the same weekday
Any such reform will probably
have to be universal throughout
I Christendom, for the moon-contro1
: led Easter is common to all cirilired
! countries: though, owing t0 the fact
| that the Greek chinch still uses the
; Julian calendar, there are always
• nearly two Easter days every y®ar
: one the Grecian, observed by Roma
• Catholics and Prutestans and th
; other the Julian, kept hy thoso
j countries which are in communion
: with the Greek church
