Points Regarding the Census
The census begins April 15 and
nust be completed in two weeks
n cities and in thirty days in all
>ther areas.
The enumerators will wear a
i badge inscribed "United States
jensus, 1910."
The law requires every adult!
person to furnish the prescribedl
nformation, but also provides
that It shall be treated confidentially,
so that no injury can come
to any person from answering
the questions.
The presideut has issued a
proclamation calling on all citizens
to co-operate with the census
and insuring them that it has j
nothing to do with taxation, army |
or jury service, compulsory |
school attendance, regulation of
immigration or enforcement of!
any law and that no one can be;

It is of the utmost importance!
that the census of population aud;
agriculture in this state be com
plete and correct. Therefore every
person should promptly, accurately
and completely answer
the census questions asked by
the enumerators.

and invention may almost be said
to be contemporaneous with the
present generation. Men not
yet old can remember when the
first arc lights appeared, and
what a wonder they were; and
the incandescent light was of later
creation. One thing has followed
another so rapidly, indeed,
that the real marvel of electric
development has hardly been realized
by the generation which
hM<i witnps.?-f>d it.
In the public lighting stations
of the United States upward of
forty thousand persons are now
employed, at wages which aggregate
more than thirty million
dollars, and it is estimated that
one huudred thousand private
plants employ thirty-five thousand
more, at wages which t->tal
about seventeen millions.
Even this, however, represents
but oue department of tho held
of electrical industry as it is today.
The lighting stations are
dependent upon factories where
thousands of other persons are
employed. The making of poles,
