On June l many thousands of men
officially known as enumerators began
u., . to take the twelfth
census of the Unit
ed States. During
the month they will be expected to visit
every home. They will ask many ques-
tions. Not one of these questions is
unnecessary, and, rightly regarded,
none is impertinent. Every accurate
answer will help to carry out The pur-
pose of the census, which is to deter
mine and record the social condition
and industrial standing of the people
of this country. Truth-telling cannot
possibly have embarrassing results.
The information given the enumerator
will not be used as a basis of taxation
nor communicated to any assessor; and
If the enumerator makes any facts pub
hc he viii be liable to heavy penalty.
The enumerators will undoubtedly try
to do their work discreetly and well,
for they are reputable citizens, care
fully chosen. The government gives
them all the aid it can, in the form of
instructions so comprehensive that
they fill pamphlet of Ga pages. But
the success of the census really depends
upon the intelligent cooperation of the
people. Receive the enumerator cour-
teously, urges Youths Companion, an
swer his questions frankly and in no
way hamper or delay him. He is the
agent of great governmental enter
prise which should interest and must
benefit every citizen of the United
States.

Are rsst orowinr Larger ?

Shoemakers and haberdashers who
cater to the wants of the elite assert
that their patrons this year demand
hosiery and shoes averaging from one
half to one and half sizes larger
than they did five years ago. The
majority of the dealers believe that
the average length and breadth of
mems feet have been steadily increas-
ing since the wane of the fashion
which demanded n pointed toe and
tight-ftting shoe.
This they explain by saying that the
effect of the style in vogue six years
ago was to cramp and distort the nat
ural development of the feet. When
the style changed and comfort became
the criterion of fashion nature again
exerted itself Feet which had be-
come distorted during the reign Of the
narrow shoe and pointed toe slowly be-
gan to broaden and adapt themselves
to their new surroundings.
The change, being gradual went for
a long time unnoticed and not until
the merchants recently began to COM
pare their sales of five years ago with
those of to-day it was found that the
average increase has been approXi-
mately on size.-Chicago Times-Her-

Never, since Xerxes time have the
nations Of the world gathered their
varied armies together as is now the
acase at Tien-Tsln Under the walls Of
that grim old Chinese town English
and American, French and German,
japanese and Russian, Austrian and
Italian fought side by side, hereditary
enmities forgotten, vengeance in their
hearts and the great worlds approval
at their backs. At Leipsic, in 1913,
Napoleon, with his French and Polish
troops, faced Germans, Austrians, Rus
slams and Swedes, while at Waterloo
the Corsican had to meet English,
Germans, Belgians and Hollanders. In
the Crimean war Russia stood against
English, French, Turkish and Italian
armies. but in none of these conflicts
were so many or such heterogeneous
forces brought together as in China.
The battle Of Tien-Tsn might well be
called the battle Of the nations, and
