The enumerators have only two weeks in which to do this big and important job, and every man woman who ha interests at heart ought to be ready and willing to aid them in every way posximo. mme this is properly a matter for tome ol our busi ness organixationa to look after, every head of a family, or person to whom the inquiries are put, can assist by answer not only promptly, but cheerfully and kindly. Indeed, it would bo well for adult persons who are likely to be called upon for intormation to lamumrize themselves with the schedule of ques tions which they will be reonired to answer name in full, exact age, nativ ity, number and ages of children, dead as wen living, place oi oirin oi person s oarents. if foreign born date of immi gration, occupation of each member of family, amount of school attendance, etc. In' every way possible help mo enumerators to take a complete census of Oregon for once.
