Meaning Of Family.
For census purposes a family is "a
group Of persons living together in the
same dwelling place or premises" The
persons in the group need not be re-
lated to one another. A landlady with
a hundred boarders or a prison with a
thousand convicts constitutes one fam
lily, so far as the census is concerned,
the latter coming in the class of tnsti-
tutional families.
A careful. accurate poll of these fami-
lies, together with poll of their mem
bers for information about the numer-
GUS subjects with which the census is
is the task laid down for
the great census army. The Census
Bureau anticipates that its objective
will be carried in two weeks in the
cities and towns, and within four weeks
in suburban areas.
