Just one more word In reference to the communication lastweek. Mr. . Miller says "If my neighbor wants some of this late water, it is his fright and privilege but why make my land security for same." Let me remind re-mind him that there are some things In which we must have co-operation for the community good, such things as water systems. sewers,, electric lighting, etc This Is the case with this supplemental late water. Mr. Killer knows well- that it would be Impracticable for the water company to fairly distribute this supplemental vater to a water user here and there throughout1 the district.

Few people realize perhaps 'that this bureau la Just aa busy between times aa It la In the year ' In which the number of inhabitants In the United States Is taken. Joseph A. Hill, assistant director- of the Census has written In the current Issue of the National Republic an -Interesting ac count of what the Census Bureau really does. In recounting Its ac tivities Mr. Hill says In part: "The work of the Bureau of the Census touches the life and activities of the people at many -different points. To get a falriicture;Df what the Bureau of the Census does we miight ask . our selves- the question, What ia it doing at the present time, in this month of December, 1928, more than eight years after the last decennial census was taken and a year and a half before the next one Is due? Well, for one thing it is completing the last census of religious religi-ous bodies, converlng the year 1926, and is publishing the results by de nominations in a series of pamphlets which are attracting- wide interest We learn from this inquiry that there are in the United States at the present pres-ent time 213 different religious sects or denominations. Many of them are small and not widely known. Forty-four Forty-four of them hare fewer than a thousand members each, and it Is safe to say that the man on the street never even heard of the Chrlstadel-phJans, Chrlstadel-phJans, or of the Schwenkf elders, or of the Apostolic 'Over-Coming Holy Church of God. or of the General Six Principle BapttaU,jBrofJheTwcj Beed-ln-the4?plr It Preadestlnarian Baptist. Yet as revealed by the( census, there are 'denominations or sects bearing these unfamiliar names or othej names equally strange to the ear of the average man, and cherishing cher-ishing their own peculiar beliefs, tenets or practcee that distinguish and set them apart from the mass of Christian believers. In the census these smaller sects receive the same consideration as the large and well known denominations such as the Baptists, the Methodists, the Episcopalians, Episco-palians, the Presbyterians, the Jews and the Roman Catholics. . "The census report give the number num-ber of churches and the church membership- of each denomination, large or small, also the number and value of church edifices, the church expenditures, expen-ditures, In some detail and some data regarding Sunday Schools. The series of bulletins now being issued contain con-tain in addition to the statistics a certain amount of text describing briefly the history of each denomination, denomina-tion, tbe doctrines held by it and its form of organization These pamphlets, pam-phlets, varying In site from S pagea to 10, when brought together, as they will be, and published as a single volume, win constitute virtually a cyclopeadia of religious denomina tions in the United" States.
