CENSUS ENUMERATORS
WINDING UP WORK
Young Ladies Who Have Been
Engage® In Work Found It
Tedious, Yet Interesting
ALL SHOULD BE LISTED
Annapolis needs every man, woman
and child in this bailiwick to have his
nose counted, and thereby swell the
total of population now being listed by
the census enumerators.
l)r. Lewis Carrico, of Br.vantown,
Charles county, is Census Superin
tendent of the Fourth District, in
which Annapolis is listed, and to him
all returns and reports must be made.
These returns are supposed to have
been completed within two weeks af
ter the second of January, \bhen the
census enumerators started, but be
causeof very bad weather the limit
has been prolonged, almost indefinite
ly as the work hereabouts is still go
ing on.
However the census -takers in the
town wards are about, winding up
their work, and expect to soon be able
to send in their final reports to Dr.
Carrico. Miss Mattie Leitch is census
enumerator for the First Ward, Miss
Elizabeth Moss for the Second Ward,
Miss Ruth King for the Third Wa¥d.
and Miss Frances Short for the Fourth
Ward.
Miss Joy Duvall is census enumer
ator for Kastport, which district is not
nearly completed, owing to the severe
weather that hampered tics work.
Some, and probably all the census
enumerators has unusual experiences,
not to say amusing. On Chestnut
street a little girl came to the door In
response to the knock and was told
the young lady had come to take the
census of the house. 'Wait a minute,”
said the child, and she ran back into
the house and brought the census
enumerator a penny, doubtless think
ing “census” had something to do
with cents.
Another nose counter rapped at a
door, and upon having It opened to
her, announced that she was the cen
sus enumerator. The person evidently
misunderstood her, for the reply^was

DESIGNATED AS SIATE
“DRV” COMMISSIONER
According to a dispatch from Wash
ington former State Senator Richard
j S. Dodson, of THbot county, yesterday
was appointed by Internal Revenue
Commissioner Daniel C. Roper to hr
Prohibition Commissioner for Mary
land. The appointment becomes ef
fective immediately and Mr. Dodson
may enter upon his duties at any time
it is convenient for him to do so.
The designation. of Mr. Dodson for
this position—one paying $4,500 a
1 ye.tr— was delayed by the difficulty Mr.
Roper experienced in finding a man
qualified for the place and one against
whom there was no vigorous opposi
tion Incidentally, the political lead
ers in the State failed to give the Com-*
niissioner any assistance in naming
the new official. Mr Roper, however.
. turned to former Congressman J.
Harry Covington for advice, and it
was largely through the approving
opinion of Judge Covington respecting.
Mr. Dodson that the iatter was'fa
|cored.
Former Sheriff George W. Hardy, of
Prince George’s county, wis a close
) second for the appointment. He had
been strongly indorsed, but had been
opposed by certain interests in his sec
. tion of the State.
‘ I Mr DodsOn is a retired business
man of St. Michael’s. He was former
r, lv in the banking business there and is
! said to be a man of independent for
! tune. He served both in the House of
j and in the State Senate and
I is well and widely known among pub
j lie on the Eastern Shore.

since 18S5; the reduction aggregating
nearly SO per cent, during the whole
period.
Concrete sdgges* ions for improve-.

STATUS OF DISCHARGED
GUARDSMAN HEARD
The question of whether Private
Maurice Ogle, of Company M, Second
' Regiment. Maryland State Guard,
{should be discharged prior to flu*
muster out of the command on the
j latter part of (libs month, was heard
at the Bladen St. Armory last night
I before a board composed of Major
| Jesse Slingluft. Albert S. 17. Barnett
and Lieut. S. Arthur Kbv. Lieut. Or
j lando Ridout acted as recorder, and
Hugh R. Riley appeared as counsel
for Private Ogle. The hearing ex
ended until nearly midnight, and
! considerable feeling was manifested.
Private Ogle was discharged on ap
plication of ( apt John B Kippere in
November. 1918. but the discharge was
r< -einded as it was shown that the
proper procedure was not taken. The
j matter was thf* n referred to the tnHi
lary board for investigation and de
termination whether the discharge
should take place at once or await
jthe muster-out of the command.
