When an enumerator finds nobody
home after several visits, q return
address card Il mailed TO the house
With q request that the information be
forwarded by mail. In the case OF
suriy customer who slams the door.
the canvasser usually can get the de-
sired information from neighbors.
After the enumeration, the slips are
examined, then sent either to Rich
mond or to the main once In Detroit,
where the names are set down alpha
betically and pasted. They are then
sent to the linotype machines; galley
proofs are checked against original
copy and then the pages are run on
ON cylinder presses. The final job Is
the binding in the Detroit bindezy.
Mr.. Wilkinson and B. W. McLelland,
local production supervisor, expect to
handle / 100000 names, many Of which
probably viii be duplicates. They esti-
mate the book viii contain 100000
names, including all District residents
1s years old and over, plus those work
ing here but living outside.
This il . long way from the first
Washington city directory published
In l822, which listed some 1000 names.
That slim volume was unburdened by
street numbers, which apparently
didn't exist, anyway. A typical entry
was as follows: miles. Mrs., widow,
corner N Jer Nv and KS"

A WARTIlGE CASUALTY now being
IA rehahtlitated Is the city directory.
Formerly an annual affair, this bulky
volume will be published next spring
for the f1rst time since 1043.
It takes about five months for every
house and place Of business In the
District to be canvassed by enumera-
tors, who frst are given day or two
Of training. The main Qualification
for an enumerator Is . legible hand
writing, for the information he or she
jots down ON the prepared form Is the
same copy from which the printer sets
the type.
These enumerators are sent out to
specified districts. Each has q master
map Of that district and . guide Of
streets and numbers, ~ listed In the
previous directory, plus q record Of
any new building In the area listed by
the District engineer.
Enumeratoes are likely to encounter
al sorts Of contretemps. One young
man In Chicago not many years ago
was making routine inquiries In
LOOP saloon when q sinister character
suddenly thrust q gun into his mid
section. He was forced to remain In
the saloon while scouts went to make
sure that he had been making the
same inquiries up the street and was
therefore what he purported to be.
T. L. Wilkinson, an oncial Of the
company which publishes the direc-
tory, started out years ago as an
enumerator, which he depicts Is job
of high adventure.

babies. fixed washing machines and
been chased by q pig" he says. you
