Show oo ENUMERATORS OF SCH00LCEHSUS The work of taking the 1911 school census Is progressing very satisfactorily, satisfac-torily, according to the advance reports re-ports of the enumerators. In past years it has been the custom with the board of education to select the principals of schools to act as census enumerators, and, as previously stated, tho same rule is bolng followed follow-ed this year. This not only gives the board the very best men for this work, but also affords the principals lo familiarize famil-iarize themselves with the school population bo that children whose parents par-ents are not vigilant in getting them to school may be more readily known and the proper officers advised as to the delinquency. It is the desiro of the board members mem-bers and Superintendent Mills that every child of school age attend school regularly, and this can be best accomplished, thoy claim, by the principals prin-cipals of the schools knowing the paronts, the children and their place of residence There arc five census districts In the city and the enumerators enumera-tors now engaged in tnking the census cen-sus are as follows; First district J.
