The note outlines Easter this year three weeks later than 1945 and lists Good Friday April 19, Victoria Day May 24 on a Friday, Dominion Day July 1, Labor Day September 2 as the first Monday, with a reminder not to overlook other days off in 1946. It adds a hint for scholars to add two months and for clerks to add two weeks.
