"Aro you tlio hend of the family,
or In the head out?"
This Is ono of the lending ques
tions that will ho iut to whoever
may come to tlio door'Nvhen the cen
bub enumerator calls next April.
It Is Important that the Govern
ment keep track of every heud of
family, and the answer, though It
may cause domestic wrangling after
ward, will lie recorded from 'the ono
of whom It Is asked. That is where
tho women of the family will get the
liest of It, as It Is likely the men
will bo at work when tho enumerator
calls. '
Think Twice.
"Are you married? llnve you any
children? Is our mothcr-lu-law liv
ing with you?"
These arc a few of the multiplicity
of questtonswhlch, beginning In
April, 1910, will be asked every
housewife In the United States and
Its territories by Uncle Sam's army
of Inquisitors known as census enum
erators. From house to house all over the
country these inqusltors. will go. K
jou happen to be a housewife and
answer the summons of the door bell,
and four of jour five children an
swer It too, do not scold tho enum
erator when he asks jou If you are
married. Uncle Sam has not counted
noses all over the country for ten
long years, and It .may be, as some
pessimists say, the race Is lessening,
and, If so, tho Government wants to
know In order to dctcrmlno what
kind of premiums to offer for ltooso
vcltlun families.
Chain theDo&.
There Is one request In particular
the Government makes of people liv
ing In small cities, towns and rural
districts, and that Is to have all
dogs chained after April 1st, for at
least six months.
When tho enumerator calls he
will begin by asking these questions:
"Whnt street, road or avenue is
this? What is tho number?"
He will then ask: "What Is your
name? Are you the head of a fam
ily? What Is the nune of each per
son living here on April 10, 1910T
The surname Initial of every person
In the pbode? How many children,
their names, nges, places of birth?"
If you are not the heud of the
family jou will be asked what rela
tion you are to the head.
The enumerators will ask the sex,
color and race ofevery person; tho
ngo at last birthday.
Then come the questions to the
women.
"Aro jou married or single or di
vorced or widowed? If ou have
ueen divorced and remarried, ou
will be asked the number of )ears
of tne present married life.
"How many children aro jou the
mother of? How many children wero
born and how many nro living?"
These questions will be asked In
the order named, so do not get Im
patient and fretful nnd think the
enumerator Is asking questions which
seem personal and Impertinent. Tho
Information Is for the Government.
The enumerator also will ask jour
nationality. The Government Is par
ticularly anxious that this question
bo answered truthfully.
"What State or Territory, If born
In the Unlted,8tates? What country,
If foreign born? The place of birth
of the person being Interrogated;
tho place of birth of the father of
this person nnd the place of birth or
the mother are among the questions.
The question of citizenship will be
thoroughly gone Into, thus:
"Wero you born In the United
States? Were you an Immigrant?
What year did you come' to the Unit
ed States? Have you been natural
ized or are you still an nllcn?"
The enumerator will have to ask
whether all persons enumerated
speak English, and If not what lan
guages they speak.
The trade or profession, tho kind
of work done hy each person, such
us spinner, salesman, laborer, &c,
will be asked. The general nature
of industry, business or establish
ment In which each porsori works,
such as cotton mill, dry goods store,
farm, &c. Whether an employer or
'employee or working on' own ac
count, will be another question, H
an employee jou will bo asked vho
ther you wero out of work on April
15, 1910, and the number of weeks
jou wero out of work In 1909,
Questions will bo asked with a
view of claeslfjlng the Illiterate,
those having Just a common educa
tion and those hnvlng a higher edu
cation. Other questions will show whether
Americans are as extravagant as
they have been alleged tp be. It will
be asked whether tho home you live
In Is owned hy you or rented. U
owned by you, if It Is freo of uiort
BB0. The last question Is If there aro
any persons in the houso suffering
from blindness, whether In both
eyes ;and If deaf nnd dumb?
Every citizen Is asked to co-operate
with the enumerators In order
that' no mistakes will occur.

to this a cablegram was Bent to the
mainland for six chorus girls and ono

ers had been asking for n Honolulu en
gagement and the Novelty manager
decided to send for them when ho In
duced Happy Jack to remain hero. The
Noelty manager did not want to try
and run a full company without some
cno whom ho could trust for stage
manager. This duty will fall upon
Happy Jack, who Is elated at the pros'
pect of having a complete company to
work with.

BETTER TAKE THE
VOLCANO TRIP
There Is to bo no overcrowding at
the Volcano House on the occasion of
the next big excursion by tho Inter-Island
Co, which will tnku place Now
Year's eve. The additions to tho hotel
are tuch that many more guests than
ever can be accommodated and thi.
dining room ptaff will be Increased for
the occasion. The Mauna Kea can car
ry comfortably all who wish to go.
Never has this generation had an
opportunity to see more glorious pj ro
technics than are being sent up by
'Nature's forces at the crater eery
night. There aro several fountains go
ing continuously and tho molten lava
goes from side to side of the crater
with tho regularity of uulscbeuts. The

bo unusual. The ball by the citizens
'promises to be a delightful affair. Illlo
