School Census
 To Be Taken

School census forms were sent out from the office of Palm CT school this week, it was an nounced today by Carl Smelling, superintendent of schools. The information requested on these blanks is required by law, in order that an accurate survey of school population may be made.
 The territorial law states that the census must be taken an- nually by local boards of educa- tion before the end of October. A report from the local super intendent of schools must be in Juneau before the months end.
 Palmer census blanks were sent home with children now attending schools. The parents or guardians must answer all questions on the blank. All chil- dren in the family (whether liv- AAAS at 1iolllC OA HUI OCt"SSI1 tlle ages of 5 and 21 years must be reported on the census blank.
 The census form asks that the name and sex of the child be listed, the day, month and year of birth, and present age in years.
 MT. Smelling requested that any Valley parents whose neigh bors have no children in school, but who will enter a child in school next term, inform him of that fact. Census information for the neighbours child may be written at the bottom of the census blank. Children are con- sidered of school age if they are six years old before Nov. 1.
 MT. Smelling said it was very important that these blanks be returned to school as promptly as possible. The information con tained in them is essential to the office of the Territorial Com missioner of Education.
