This information could easily be secured by adding the births and subtracting the deaths since the last census. The chief reasons for census-taking are to find out the condition of the people of the country, thtir employment, income, housing, financial stability, marital status, education, and countless other items of information The census is a photograph of the nation, and is studied for years to come whenever national problems arise.

The S$bry was related by Dabonka and bis Shipmates when the American Prasident liner decked in Hoboken, ^Mhag its fifty-third trip aroi^ ti|i£ world. Captain Duncan Ward provided a story-book setting as ha remarked: "We were about 125 miles out of Manila. Itie sea was calm and the moon was tew in the sky. We backtracked in our wake for about half an how at slow speed, and then turned Sm our searchlights and swept the aea. But we couW find no trace of Dabonka.** iv.'-"*" An Over a Jsfea. ' How ha got himself into ;%ute a predicsment was recounted by Dabonka as he recalled foe was sitting on the deck rail listening to a shipmate tell a joke. He laughed so hard he leaned over backward and lost his balance. The shipmate spinning the yarn looked away just at that moment and didn't see Dabonka fall. Then, missing him, he thought Dabonka must have walked away in the darkness, and hence did not report the disappearance for 75 minutes. "I must have still been laughing when I hit the water/" Dabonka said, "because the first thing I knew 1 had swallowed a mouthful^jMawater. ' - Knew Shsrks' Fear-,., , "I knew sharks would be scared of the ship's wake so I took off my clothes and started swimming toward what I thought was the ship. But it turned out to be the moon.** Captain Ward, meantime, had turned the President Harrison about, and after a time one of the seamen heard what was described as "an eerie whistle." It was remembered then that Dabonka was noted for sounding shrill whistling blasts with his tongue and teeth and a lifeboat was lowered. Guided by whistled responses to their shouts, the members of the rescue party came upon Dabonka in the water jfcfter rowing about three miles. "We took him back to the ship, gave him a stiff drink of gin and he passed out," one of the seamen said. At the oonclusion of the story a reporter asked Dabonka to relate the joke which caused all the trouble. "The joke?" the boatswain's mate said. "Well, what do you know about that!

The shingle will represent the story of how Oyen helped Nelson over come almost complete blindness. They met in their sophomore year and it was then that Nelson "borrowed" Oyen's eyes. Before that it was doubtful if Nelson could have continued Ms studies because of his fsilfig sight. But thsy studied together, and from then en Oyen read the text books aloud to his frisnd. Nslson waa the highsst-ranking member of the graduating class. He served on the law school council and the university board of election. A year ago whan Oyen married his home-town sweetheart, he invited Nelson to live at their home. "Our partnership worked out pretty well in school, and it's going to work even batter when we hang out that shingle/' they said. Fisherman's Dog Catdhei Big One; Here's Story TOLEDO, OHip.--First fish story of the season is being told by Don Feak, but his dog is getting all the credit. Feak lives along the Maumee river and an employee was fishing with a long cane pole while he worked. The family dog warned the employee by barking when the bobber began to jerk and go under, so the workman tried to land the fish, but the line broke. The Feak dog then dived into the river, grabbed the bobber in his mouth, and swpm ashore. A twopound catfish was on the book. Tipsy Cyclist Accused Of Disorderly Conduct PENNS GROVE, N.
