COMET
A strange comet has recently
come within the range of vision.
Its position is northwest of Venus
and east ' of the sun ; and o wing to
its nearness to the sun it can be
seen for only a short time after
sundown. The big telescopes of the
world have been trained on it ; but
cloudy weather has interfered with
observations, and the comet has not
been identified. A fairly good view
of it was obtained in Hendersonville
one or two evenings this week.

' The blanks sent to applicants for
the position of enumexator, toeh
able them to prepare jfr thexaniT- '
nation which takes place on the 5th '
day of April, tJhis year; , contain the ;
large number o questions that will '
be asked by the enumerators wnen
the work of taking (tb'e , census is .
commenced on Apriri5,' 1910. And '
in families where the question as to
who the head of the family is, has
not been settled, If is important that
the question be settled at bncje, as
one of the very first" questions
that will be asked by the enumera- .
tor will be: "Who is the head of the
family?" This is one of the leading
questions which will be put to who
ever may come to the "door when,
the enumerator calls.
It is important that . the govern
ment keep close track of the head
of every family, and theanwser to
the above question, though it may
often create considerable wrangling
in the household afterward, will be
recorded promptly from the person
addressed. That is where the wo
men of the family will get the best
of the controversy, as it is likely
that the men, especially, in this
county, will be at work when the
enumerator puts in ah appearance.
- The enumerator will also inquire
if you are married, and how many
children you havej and if your moth
er is living with you. He will fur
ther inquire how many, times you
have been marriedand how long it
has been since you "were married
the last time. '
The foregoing are only a few' of
the many questions, which, begin
ning April 15 of this year, will be
asked every house-wifein this coun
try by Uncle Sam's army of enume
rators. From house to 'house all
