The operation and use `of the member C relative to member C and of the member C relative to the member C" is similar, and the length of theV outs 11 and 12 ot the member C and 11 and 12 ot member C is' suoli that when properly moved over the schedules S1 andS2 respectively, the superfluous The tablO of member U, by means oi which said member is moved inthe folder,V has a' guide line 15 thereon which is adapted to i'egistervvith the linesdepeiiding from the numerals 1, 2, 3 and 4 adjaeeiitto the slot f5 so as to indicate the proper positions in the iolder ,"l'orthe member C. 1Thefnumbers 1, 2, Sand 4, opposite the `slot f5 eoiistitute an index for establishing a proper relation between the days ot the current month and the days of the suceeeding month. For instance, the number l may indicate twenty-eight days in a month, number2l twenty-nine days in' a month, number Bi .thirty daysin a month, and number 4 thirty-one days in a. month.

The' op'erationfof my calendar is as fol lovvs: i l
ltbeing desired to provide a calendar for anygiven `month `of any given year prior or subsequenttoa current year, for instance fdanuary 1915, the year ,ind-ex. card Y` 1s rotated on its axis until tlie'year 1915 ap` pears through theA opening f2 in the front f of the' 'older,` and'also through the corre-r sponding opening 19 of'nlember M. Vhen `moved into proper position` a line 1 on member tT17 will register With the line. v1 on 1 the folder. rhe member M is then adjusted so thatv a line` 1.v will register With the linesk 1 of the folder. 1" of the member Y, and the month of January appears lthrough the opening, f1 inthe front of the folder. HWhen the members Y and M are thus adiuisted, the'index characters B X7 on.v men f ,character B of the scale S on' thev folder and the card C is adjusted so that the` tab 14 thereon 4Will registerwvith the character. X of the scale f5; n
" The adjustment of the ;1ne1nl' ers Y; QM,
"W, C and C yin the manner stated thus brings into view .that portion oif `thescale 4tiFo'n member C vvhich vvillrepresent a calendar for the .month of January. 1915, and
also that portionxot the scale `S=2 oif' card C which.Willrepresent a calendar i'orthe succeeding month ot February. Thename of the succeeding month February .Willbe automatically moved'into registration with the opening` of `7 inthe' folder 'below the calendar when the currentmonth' is shown.
ln order to` illustrate' another operation, let it be assumed thatit is-desirodto ascertain lthe name of the; day' after the/1th of Jlnly,1910.r lnsuch case, niemberY is ad- `iusted 'as before, vso that ftheV year 1910 will appear yat the top of the folder.` Member Mr is adjusted as before so thatl the month of July` will appearat Vthe, top of the folder in' registration with the year 191() and the month ofWAugust? Will-appear at .the bottom or the lfolderl as the monthfsubsequentto the month of July. In -thisparticulai case theindez; oradjusting the mem# scale ya, member "itl :letame bersl/V, C and C Willyappear through the portion f3 or' the opening yin the `iblder'and` Wai besten i@ seriez. Members is then adjusted to thenumeral 4l of thev member C is adjusted to the character Zl7 ot the scale f8. rllfhus, the calendar for July and August 1910 will be provided on the cards C and C respectively, and by` reference to the` calendar for July7 it jvill be found that July the 4th fell onMonday, and, therefore, the day following fell on Tuesday. l jv, i
In order that Sunday oni my' improved calendar may beindica'ted differently from the other days of; the Week, l may provide a thin transparent strip atthe left hand edge of the opening 6 in the member W of colored material, such `as Celluloid, so 'as vto*v cover the numerals on the card C and C in the Sunday column, as indicated in Fig. `6. It Will be readily apparent that I have provided a convenient, compact, economical and comprehensive calendar" capable l of ready manipulation for 4ascertaining `any dates Wit-,hin the range of'a particular cal endar, and possessing,beneficial character-` istics Which'ivill be readily apparent to users of such calendars.`
