Five Times In Two Centuries
The question whether or not the -stores will close or remain
open on Saturday, April 19, comes up because Sunday, April 20, is Easter
Sunday and many of the local store keepers believe that customers
will wish to do some last minute purchasing on Saturday-.
Others believe that people will make provisions for the occasion.
and do their buying early enough. Be that as it may, the local mer-
chants are indebted to Ralph Keneeley for the information that the
discussion will not arise again for at least 60 years.
The local shoe merchant consulted the World Almanac and
found .that between the years 1801 and 2000, A: D., this situation occurs
just Five times. In the 19th century Easter came on April 20 in the
year 1851 and again, 11 years later, in 1862.
The phenomenon was not to occur again until S7 years later in
1919. Then came an interval of 'five years until 1924 and now it cornea
around again after an interval of six years. But it will not take
place again until after the. year 2000.. The exact date has not yet
been computed.

Directions For Workers
The committee this week issued some
advice to those who intend to put in an
.appearance. It is suggested-that a work-
cr bring one or more of the following

pail, hatchet or axe. All equipment
should be labeled to avoid loss.
i The entrance to the reservation is on
the right just' beyond the Meadow

Hot or cold drinks will be served on
the reservation free to all workers. It
has been suggested that those who in-
tend to spend a large part of the time'
between 9:30 a. m, and 5 p. m. bring a
lunch and make a real sociable day of it.
A statement from the committee this
week reads:
One of the nice things about Reading
is the fine spirit of cooperation and
helpfulness demonstrated by its..towns
pe6hle when the opportunity for public
service is presented. In last week's. issue
of The Chronicle,the committee on re-
forestation asked for volunteers from
various civic organizations of the town
to assist in the gala Planting Day on
April 26.
The Boy Scouts had already been
assigned to a,place in the program but
the first volunteer organization to re-
port for duty was the Board of Select-
men and they asked for the reservation.

DIG DOWN AND ,ASSIST
How many.times a year are you asked to "dig down" and help out'
a worthy cause? Can't count them can you-don't want,to count them,
in fact. How many times a year are you asked to dig down and help.
and told that it won't cost you a cent? So rarely that" it sounds
absolutely new and unheard of. And yet a few years ago the people,
of Reading turned out and did a stunt in Memorial Park that brought
much favorable publicity to the town. Here is an opportunity to again
demonstrate our civic spirit.
The eonimittee on reforestatot wants volunteers for Saturday, . .
April 26, to assist with the beginnings of what is to be known as the
Town Forest. So when you are asked to dig down, the request has.
nothing to do with finances.
It is the aim of t17e committee on reforestation to set out 20,000
trees this year and it is hoped that a good beginning will be made oil
Arbor Day, April 26, which will be marked locally as Community Plant.
ing Day with, practically the entire community taking an active part.;
The work of reforestation needs no comment here. The country-wide
movement to conserve our natural resources is understood and favored
by all progressive citizens. The manner in which the town meeting
voted the appropriation for this work in March is a significant fact
that the people of Reading are behind the work but it now remains for
the people to translate their interest into real cooperative effort, t
Several suggestions have been handed to the committee in order
that they may make complete plans for the day. They will ask. several"
organizations directly for assistance but every organization, whether
in receipt of a personal call from the committee or not, should, feel free
and obligated to offer some sort of aid.
The Town Forest will, in years to come, be'of real value to the
town. Aside from the fact that it will be one of the many sources spring-
ing up to replenish the country's diminishing' supply of timber, it will
furnish an out-of-door resort for lovers of nature. The Town Forest
can be used, as it is used in many other towns,'as a place where one
can spend a quiet afternoon. It can be used by'organized or independ-
ent nature study groups and, protected as it will. be, it will constitute.
as fine a bird sanctuary as can- be found anywhere. It will be "a thing
of beauty and Ajoy forever."
Should we urge you more? The call has gone forth: it's your
move. If you don't belong to an organization, volunteer as a good citi-
zen. Get out Your shovel and your hoe. Put your enthusiasm behind .
