ardlzation of automobiles, the discov-

never realized the pleasure to be Sc
cured by the purchase OF such

knowledge that automobiles are great

support the statement that AUTOMOBILE

When the Boston American league
club picked up Jack Kleinow 1t made
a wise move, for with Carrigan on the
injured list the Speed Boys would find
themselves in a bad way for catchers
had Kleinow not been secured. Carri-
gan and Kleinow make a great pair
of catchers for Boston. Both are good
throwers, know the game and can be
figured on holding up their end with

FAIRY TALE READERS, GAZE
UPON THIS.

Hans Andersen has been dead
for many, many years, and hun
dfeds OF writer's have tried hard
to emulate his famous fairy
tales. None has succeeded un-
til recently, when one man did
SO. Being too modest of his sue
cess in filing Hans shoes, he
failed TO give his name. Later
we will hear from him. His first
yarn is a corker and one that
will leave a lasting impression
. upon all those who read 1t. Now
start all together:
Anderson, center fielder OF the
Deep Hoven (Afinn) team, prom
ises to eclipse in historic fame
Casey of Mudville. In a game
with the Prince Reality team Of
Minneapolis on Excelsior dta-
mond recently Anderson caught
a fly, shutting OFF three runners.
After long run Anderson fell
into the lake, turned on his back
and caught the fly, swan TO shore
and Deep Hoven won. This was
in the eighth with the score o to
in favor Of Deep Hoven. The
umpire says he knew Anderson
caught the ball because he lives
In Deep Hoven and knows the
fielder cannot dive.

UNGLAUB STICKS TO HIS
OLD BAT AND GLOVE.

Bob Unglaub. first sacker of
the Washington club, has been
in the American league for close
on to eight years. During all
that time he has used but one
bat, while for his first base play
he has had but one mitt His
bat he guards as though 1t were
a priceless jewel. He does not
lay it with the other bats in
front of the bench, but has 1t
up In one corner where he can
keep his eye ON 1t. He does not
use it in practice, but during the
progress of a game depends
upon it altogether for bunting as
well as slamming out long hits.

Washington, D. c., April 8. -
Each head of family in a number
of large cities will receive, few days
prior to April Is, when the United
States census begins, an advance
population schedule" containing all
the questions which appear in the OFF,
cial population schedule to be carried
by the census takers.
These advance schedules are to be
filed in by the heads of families or. in
their absence, by other members of
their families, and the schedules will
be taken up by the enumerators dur
ing the progress Of the actual enuIner-
alton.
This action on the part OF the census
bureau is a complete innovation and
an important advance in American
census methods OF obtaining a count
of the population. and the bureau au-
thorities expect it to prove of great
practical and scientific value.

pleteness IN the returns, as the heads
of the families, who are generally the
most reliable sources of information,
are themselves given sufficient oppor-
tunity In advance Of the enumeration
to examine deliberately and to answer
exactly the census questions. In past
censuses it was the case usually that
the head of the family was absent at
work when the enumerator called and
reliance had to be placed on other
members of the family, frequently
servants or children, or on neighbors,
none of whom can be classed as de,
pendable informants.
The advance schedule will also I'M
doubtedly prove of great assistance to
the enumerators 1t will enable them
to perform their work more expedi-
tiously and agreeably, and will lessen
the number of cases involving repeat
ed calls by them.
1t is the intention of the census au-
thorities to confine the present scope
of this auxiliary method OF population
enumeration to the large cities which,
in the past, have contained the greater
number of absentee heads of families.
Introduces EnumeratOr.
In a communication to the Head of
the family printed on the back Of
each schedule, Census Director Durand
states:
''In accordance with the act of con-
gress approved July 2, 1909, the enum-
Grafton of the population of the United
States will begin on April Is. An
enumerator will call at your house, or
apartment, for the purpose of obtain
ing the required information concern
ing all persons, belonging to your
household. 1t is necessary that you
should prepare the information in adj
vance of the enumerator's visit.
Please, therefore, answer all the Ques-
lions contained on this advance SEIZED
ule for each member of your house
hold and preserve it so that it can
readily be given to the enumerator
when he calls. By doing this you will
not only aid greatly in the work of
securing an accurate enumeration of
the population, but will probably save
yourself much trouble, since If you do
not do so, a great deal of your time
will unavoidably be taken by the
In securing the informa-
ton he must obtain, and he may have
to call on you several times.
VIII Go Over Answers.
'This schedule, as filed in by you,
should be given to the enumerator
when he calls. AS he has been given
instructions. which it has not
been possible to put on this schedule,
concerning the exact manner in which
each question should be answered, it
will be necessary for him TO go over
the answers with you or with some
of your family for the purpose
of making such additions or changes
as are called for by his instructions.
All such additions and changes should
be made by the enumerator> on this
schedule or on his official schedule be-
fore he leaves the house. The adj
vance schedule, whether filed in by
you or not, should then, in all cases,
be given to the enumerator to be for
warded to Washington with his official
schedule upon which the corrected
for all families in his dis
trict has been written.
READ the presidents proclamation
on the schedule, which emphatically
states that you can not possibly be
harmed in any way by giving informa-
ton to the census"
