and all the population schedule
questions relate to it only.
In Its printed Instructions to enum
erators the Census Bureau holds that
the occupation followed by a child or
a woman Is Just as important, for
census purposes, as the occupation of
a man. Therefore the enumerators
are told never to tako It for granted
without Inaulry that a woman or
rhfid am noudi to work has no
gainful occupation.
It Is pointed out. however, that
only gainful occupations are to be
reported. By this Is meant any env
ployment, work, profession, or tocb-
ment or 'business; and It does not
Include the foreman of a' room, the
boss of a gang, . or the ; coal miner
who " hires his ' helper. All., such
should be returned 1 as employees,
for, while any one of these may em
ploy persons, none of them does so
In transacting his own' business.
Thus no. Individual-working for a
corporation, either as an officer or
otherwise, should be returned as an
employer.
A person employing domestic ser
vants In his own home, but not em
ploying any helpers In his business,
Is not to be considered as an em
ployer. But, on the other hand, a
person who is the proprietor of a
hotel or boarding house and employs
servants In running, that hotel or
boarding house, should be returned
as an employer, because he employs
these servants In his buslnesi.
An employee Is defined as any per
son wbo works for wages or a sala
ry and la subject to the control and
direction of an employer. The de
ciding test 4s whether the person re
ceives a wage or salary and Is sub
ject to another'! directions. If so,

North Carolina (A, M. West being

thereof, upon whom process may be
served), has complied with the re

land lying within the corporate lim

In the case of a woman doing
housework in her own home, without
salary or wages, and having no oth

that she has no occupation. But a
woman working at housework for
waxes should be returned as "house-

attested consent in writing to the

ces for wages or salaries. A domes
tic servant should always be return
ed as an employee, even though, as
previously explained, the person em
ploying a domestic servant is not al
ways returned as an employer.
OTHER SCHEDULE QUESTIONS.
Persons who have a gainful occupa

employees are considered to be

neither pay nor receive salaries or

class are farmers and the owners of
small establishments who do not em

work for fees and employ no help
ers; newsboys; and, generally speak
ing, hucksters, peddlers, bootblacks,
etc.
It Is stated in the Instructions that
the purpose of the schedule inquir
ies as to unemployment is to ascer
tain the measure of enforced unem
ployment that is, the extent to
which men want work and cannot
find it.
The schedule question, "home
renter or owned," is defined as mean
ing whether a family owns the home
in which it is living or rents it. If
a dwelling Is occupied by more than
one family it is the home of each of
them, and the question should be

WHAT EVERY WOMANLY
MAN WANTS.
One of the fondest desires of mil
lions of women is to have beautiful
hair.
This desire can be gratified with
out the slightest risk, for druggists
everywhere, and J. H. Kennedy &
Co. sell a hair tonic called Parisian
Sage for 50 cents, that will turn dull,
lifeless, unattractive hair into lus
trous and attractive hair in two
weeks, or money back.
Put the name on your shopping
list right now, and be sure to get the
genuine. Every package has the
girl with, the Auburn hair upon it.
' Since Its introduction in America,
Parisian Sage has won unstinted
praise from women of refinement
who have learned what a delightful
and refreshing hair tonic and dress
ing Parisian Sage Is.
Just . because the makers are ab
solutely -certain that Parisian Sage
Is the only preparation that kills the
pernicious dandruff microbes, they
are willing to guarantee It to banish
dandruff, stop falling hair and Itch
ing scalp, or money back. 4-11.
if any person is attending schoo.1 or son enumerated is a survivor of the
college and at the same time Is reg
ularly earning money at some gain
ful occupation, the enumerators are
to return that occupation. In eith
er case they must indicate the fact
of school or college attendance.
Children who work for their par
ents at home merely on general
household work or at odd times on
other work are to be reported as
naving no occupation. But children
who materially assist their parents
In the performance of work other
than household work should be re
ported as having the occupation In
which they are so employed, even
though they receive no wages. In
the case of children who work for
their own parents on a farm, that
fact ls to be entered as "home
farm." But for children who work
as farm laborers fof others, the
enumerator's entry is to be "work
ing out."
EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYEE.
The Census Bureau Instructs the
census takers that an employer Is
one who employs . helpers, other than
domestic servants, in transacting his
own business. The term employer
does not Include the superintendent,
agent, manager, or other persons
employed to manage an establlsh-
I'nion oi- Confederate Army or Navy-
is to be asked as to all males over 50
years of age who were born in the
United States and all foreign-4orn
males who immigrated to this coun
try before 1865.
The inquiry as to blindness ap
plies only when a person is either
totally or partially blind in both
eyes, so as to be unable to read even
with the help of glasses. Only per
sons who are both deaf and dumb
are to be reported under the ques
tion "whether deaf and dumb." The
question concerning school attend
ance any time since September 1,
1909, relates only to persons of
school age, between 5 and 21 years
old. In case any person outside that
age limit actually attended school,
the fact is to be noted on the schedule.
The local offlce of the Western
Union Telegraph Company Is now
accepting what are called "Night
Letter Telegrams."-, Fifty words or
less can be filed for transmission
during the night and delivery next
morning at the same rate as a day
