Excerpt from Statement No; 1: The Swastika How the division of thirteen by twenty-eight escaped may be due to the moon making a majority of twelve revolutions annually instead of thirteen. However, a great mistake was made in the arrangement, which we are perpetuating at a sacrifice of a much more convenient way of handling the question. Had they adopted the thirteen - month system with twenty-eight days in each, intercalating at the end of the year any irregularities that may be necessary, we would now be using a calendar system that would be easily retained or called to mind, as each Sunday would come on the same date in all the months, and all holidays would occur on the same day of the week and the same date of the month in all years. We must accept certain squares in the wheel on which to begin each quarter or season of the year. The column in which these squares are located is the same as that on which the year starts that is in progress. For illustra tion, we select from the vertical column above the center as follows: the first season, as indicated by five dots; the second season, as indicated by nine dots; the third season, as indicated by thirteen dots; and the last season of the year, as indicated by the top square, containing four dots. Each of these indicators is to be used for the first day in each quarter, respectively, turning in the direction made known by the outer portion of the arms in the wheel.
