TIE CITY DIRECTORY.
A GREAT TASK OF CANvASsING FOR NAMES
AND ADDRESSES

AMI ADDNfsooT.o
The constant shifting Of NETWORKS popua-
ton limits the work OF getting out the annual
city directory to about sixty days. The canvass
begins about the first OF May and the labor %
gathering the names comparing compiling. cor
recting printing and binding is all accomplished
by the first week Of July. Such a feat Is made
possible only by long years Of experience, during
which every department has been reduced to
absolute system and routine. The present
directory which has just made its appearance
is the 1l2;h volume Of the present series. ard
contains about 100000 names. In the prem-
nary work involving the canvass Of the
borOughs Of Manhattan and the Bronx. there
were IS| men employed. Manhattan is divided
into 79l districts by the directory management
and it is estimated that one man can cover
district in about two days
After the returns are all in there is COM
parisOn made with 4 list which had been pre-
pared from the directory Of the year before
It is often found necessary to send back TO an
address four five times before an accurate
record Is assured. This inside work. upon which
much depends for trustworthiness and ac-
curacy. makes necessary force Of forty clerks.
The preparation OF the list from the last direc-
tory which is used for gathering material for
the new IS begun in August and extends all
through the winter. 50 that wher spring comes
il Is ready for the canvassers.
In the course Of their travels the canvassers
cover over forty-one square miles OF territory.
The total number Of names in the present issue
~ the directory represents only about one-nfth
If the population. but it covers In satisfactory
manner all those who Of sufficient impor-
lance 20 be sought for. or the enormous foreign
population in New-York the directory people
so'oct only those names which are connected
with some recognized permanent business.
There is 10 attempt made u employ interpret
crs in the foreign districts. For the Bohemians.
Italians and Germans there are cards printed IN
each language stating the object ~ the can
yasscr's call In many Of the cases the answers
are written down in the foreign language and
these arc taken back 10 the Office. where several
men are kept busy translatinG.
Neu-York is well supplied with directories.
Besides the principal publication there Is
business directory for NeU-Y0rk containing the
names Of business houses in all the different
b1r0ushs. There is also a special business
directory for brooklyn and queens com5.na-
ton business anl residential directory each for

The rrachrrS' AssocintfOn

Or the county was rCOrganiHed Satnr-
day morning with an enrolment of
twenty-three teachers. Supt. Wallace
was made temporary president and r..
"A. Abrams temporary secretary.
Supt. Wallace having served three
consecutive years as president. of the
Association, declined reelection. Prof.
Derrick, of the College, was then
elected president. For vice-president,
Mr.. J. S. Wheeler, of the Mt. Pilgrim
school was elect~d, and for secretary,
Mr.. II. A. Abrams, of the Utopia
school. This completed the orgauiza-
tion. The officers with the County
superintendent of Education constitute
the executive committee of the associa-
tiOn.
The organization being accomplished
the discussion of the topic, "The Coun-
try Graded School," was taken up. The
discussion was opened by Mr.. Beden-
baugh, OF the ST Lukc's Graded School.
The speaker favored q thorough grad
ing of country schools that are large
enough to employ at least two teachers.
The topic was further discussed by
Prof. Sligh, Mrs. Jane Long, Supt.
Wallace and County Supt. Higgins.
The discussion brought ont the fact
that there are many hindrnnces to the
grading OF country schools; chief among
which are short terms and irregular at
tendance.
The subject of Primary Arithmetic
was then taken up. 1t was ably handled
by Supt Wallace. The speaker assert
ed that eight or nine months is rea-
sonable time to devote to teaching all
that Is contained in the numbers from
| one to ten, that this cannot be done
thoroughly in less time with beginners;
that eight or nine months should be
devoted to teaching all that is contained
in the numbers from ten to one hundred
In order to- do it thoroughly In the
second year at school; that frequent
| drills should be used in the primary
grades.
The subject, "Primary Reading "
was continued until next meeting, in
! the absence OF the teachers appointed
| to open the discussion.
Next the query box was opened. Mrs
Jane Long asked how "Arbor Day.
| should be observed. Some very yalu.
able suggestions. were made by Mrs
Long, Supt. Wallace and Pres. Cromer
1t. was decided that the association
should meet regularly on the second
| Saturday in each month 1t was also
| agreed that the hours of the association
should be from j to 1.
The association then adjourned tt
meet again December 10. A programme
for The lmeeting will be furnished the
; county papers for publication.

are invited to attend the teachers
