Test is Not Hard

Any person of good Judgment, who
has received an ordinary common

easily pass the test to be given appli-
cants for census enumerators' places
on Saturday, February 5, the date fin
ally set by United States Census Di-
rector Durand, according to an an
nouncement from the census bureau

surance to the several hundred thou
sand who are believed to be contem-
plating application for the places.
1t was emphatically stated at the
bureau that the test will be an emf
nently reasonable and practical one,
similar to that applied to applicants
at the twelfth census. 1t will consist
of filling out a sample schedule of
population from description, in mar
ratiVe form, of typical families; and
in the case Of enumerators whose
work will be in the rural districts,
they will be called upon to fill out an
additional sample schedule of agri-
culture, from information furnished
by the census bureau.
All persons, whether women or men
who may desire to become census
enumeratOrs must be citizens of the
United States; residents Of the SUI
pervisOr's district for which they wish
to be appointed; must be not less
than Is nor more than 70 years of
age; must be trustworthy, honest and
of good habits; must have at least an
ordinary education and must be able
to write plainly and with reasonable
rapidity. Those who can comply
with these requirements are invited
to put in their applications, as there
will be at least $4,000 enumerators
places to be filed by the middle of
March in preparation for the enumer-
alton beginning April 15
Application forms, with full instruc-
tionS for filling in, and complete in
formation concerning the test and the
method of appointment, can be Sc
cured by writing to the supervisor of
census for the supervisors district in
which the applicant lives. All applica-
tons, properly filed in must be filed
with the supervisors not later than
January % as any received after that
date cannot be considered

LeVieS an Assessment

R. w. Lueck, receiver of the Water
loo Mutual Fire Insurance Co. of Water
loo, Wis, has levied an assessment Of
four times the annual premium of the
Western Underwater" The proper
ty went into the hands of a receiver
February IL, 1909. He has now $3.50
with which to meet the demands of
1896. The original premium was
$3.50 on $500 which looked good to
the assured. July last, the policy
holders were called upon for an as
sessment of $16.75 and now another
assessment of $26 is levied, making
total of $47.25 on a $500 policy. But
the end may not be yet Some of
the assessments probably cannot be
collected and the other policy hold
ers may have to make further con-
tributions to meet the deficits

LEGATION Of the proceedings Of the

evidenced by the opinion of the at

gard to the matter. in answer to an
inquiry, he says:
Relative to the publication of the

such proceedings is mandatory and
while the board of education has
some discretion as to the form and
manner of publication it is not option
al with them as to whether or not

not say whether the publication shall
be made in a newspaper or whether it
shall be distributed in pamphlet form,
but it must be printed and published
in some form. The bill for the same
is claim against the city when prop
erly contracted. 1 enclose herewith a

The law went into effect June 3,

Lack of necessary funds to pay the
