SERVICE Men
Of vALuE IN
CENSUS WORK
AA0Ah ~


: Former service men who learned
to -parley-voo" while doing duty in
Francs and other foreign countries,
are finding = use for that knows-
edge in employment Is census
takers.
At the ONCE Of NJ. H. Sexton, ceo-
sus supervisor Of this district, 1t
was said today that q great number
Of ex-service men are being used In
the taking Of the census.
The work of enumerating tina
population started yesterday and
from the reports turned in after
the irst day, the work is progress
ing very well, especially for the
first day.
According to yesterdays report,
the best record for the day was
made by Mrs. Aubry of Moline who
turned in 1877 names, and her pa
pers were nearly perfect, having
but q few minor mistakes.
In one case more than two hun
dred names we're turned in Du,
there were great many mistakes
in the work. However, it 10 ex
pected that within a couple of days
tn; wrinkles will be smoothed on,
and rapid progress made.
People Understand.
The enumerators report that in
almost every case the families have
a thorough understanding Of wha'
is wanted, due to the wide public
ity and explanations which have
been given the subject. This makes
the work more pleasant for the
enumerat0rs, and saves them con-
siderable time.
Many ex-service men are on the
job. and q majority of them are men
who give as q qualification, their
knowledge Of foreign languages,
and who attained this knowledge in
the service abroad.
The hardest work of all, accord
Ing to the enumerators. is to OBJ
taiE the correct information from
foreigners, who, with memories Of
police persecution in old world
cities still In their minds, become
suspicious Of those asking Ques-
tons.
