to
Important to know whether the bank
io that particular city will be open
that day. Does any one around the
(lace know whether January 5 is a
bank holiday In-Peking ot Athens or
Cape Town? Usually no one does.
It’s han) enough to keep tabs on the
54 holidays rampant in these United
States. . It therefore becomes neces-
Mtry to send an expensive cablegram
to get the information. This sort of
thing happens not once, but many
times, in every banking house with
an extensive foreign business.
Among the holidays established by
custom the occasion is generally the
anniversary of an Important political
»vent or the birthday of a national
hero. Such holidays are therefore Io
cal. while church holidays are for the
most part general. The former class
prevails in the newer and more dem-
ocratic countries, white the older ones
confine themselves largely to the
church fasts and festivals.
Where Holiday* Are Thickest. ,
Contrary to the popular notion, the
new democracies of the west enjoy a
greater number of holidays than their
sister nations of the eastern hemi-
sphere. Of the 97 nations or depend
envies listed Brazil leads, with 8l
holiday*. Tbe United State*, with
54, is a close second, although she.
unlike Brazil, practically ignores the
church days Another popular delu
sion is shattered when we find that
France has only 18 formally observed
days and Italy only 23. We had sup
posed the Latins always outdid us in
this particular Among the other bel-
ligerents Germany, it is presumed,
will observe 20 days next year, Grteat
Britain 16. Japan 15 and Russia 17.
In most of these countries numerous
local holidays ordinarily observed
have been abandoned during the war.
The study of holidays is fascinat-
ing to the historian. Those of our
own country offer a particularly rich
field. If one knew the meaning of all
the half a hundred days celebrated In
tl.e United States, with the collateral
events connected with each, lie would
be well versed in the nation’s history.
One of the first surprises in store
for such a student is to learn that the
United States has no national holi-
day. The reader will at once think
of Fourth of July and of the Presi-
dent's Thanksgiving proclamation.
But not even these aFe national. Acts
of Congress and Presidents' pro-
nouncements in this respect apply
only to the District of Columbia and
the territories Tbe states usually
follow suit, but as a matter of cus-
tom only and not of law; Here is a
chance to win some bet* from your
