Washington.--When the vast amy of 100,000 centos takers swoop down on America next year there will be In Washington another small army of clerks transcribing the incoming records and preparing reports for the President and congress. The census bureau already is making preparations for taking the fifteenth decennigl census. Tentative-report forms ar& being drafted, extra office space is being made available for the 6,000 temporary clerks who will be employed, and machines are being adjusted for the coming task. The average mind cannot conceive of the stupendity of recording a brief history, for tbat Is in reality what a census la, of more than 120.000,000 people. The actual enumeration will require only 30 days in rural district* and half that time in citieq. 100,000 Enumerators. • If tt v ere not for the' machine* used in tabulating the «ensu«, the work probably would not be finished before time for the next one to be taken. The men and women who actually «anvass the country have a simple job compared with the clerical phase of )t. The 100,000 enumerators work onder 55Q supervisors. The •country is divided Into sections and subdivided into civil districts. These population counters record the statistics -on dOa- We-faced sheets with a capacity <of 200 names. ^ When the sheets reach the census bureau they are transcribed on cards which have been ruled Into 24 parts. Figures and combinations of figures are used instead of words and the transcription is effected by means <rf a punching machine. Each of the 24 Sections of the card is perforated in Such a winner as to denote certain facts in repaid to the Individual whom the ^a«l represents. ^ vliie cWus are then placed In a machine which automatically classifies them according' to sex and if desired further classification may be made as to color, age, etc. They next are taken to the machine, upon which the census officials pride themselves most--the recording machine. It was invented by a bureau officii! especially for census work, and as one of the chiefs said, "There is nothing like it on earth." It will print 60 different items simultaneously at the rate of 400 a mln- Ut*-0' . v . Machines Work Fmd Dtrrtnfe the coming cenitlf these machines are expected to dispose of over 3,000,000 cards a day, correctly. The perforated cards are stacked in one side of the machine and descend through complicated mechanical apparatus which, by means of the perforations, operate from one to 20 sets of type, printing the totals of all of the divisions of the cards on a large sheet of paper. This constitutes the permanent record from ^rfaich the government printing oflce publishes the final report The Illinois Chamber of Commerce, through its industrial development department, headed by C. L. Hardin, has asked Clarence F. Buck, director of the state department of agriculture, for information concerning the distribution by counties of the 9,570,000 acres of Illinois soil in corn last year. The Illinois Chamber of Commerce intends to utilize these figures la determining where corn stalks may be converted into pulp most advantageously. I'resident Scott Brown of the association is making the organization a Ml factor for good In our state. Uurret Dje F. Kinney, director of finance, under whose department administration of the gasoline tax law is placed, calls attention to a section of the law which provides that all gasoline in storage on August 1 is liable to the tax even though purchased during July. Penalties for violation of the provision may be a fine of from $25 to $500 and imprisonment in the county jail not longer than six months, in addition, the offeAder is liable fbr the amount of tax due together with ail costs necessary to its collection. Owners of filling stations face an additional penalty in that their licenses to operate may be revoked. Ten days is allowed in which to report to the department of finance on gasoline so stored, and payment to the department ot the amount of tax due on the stored gasoline must be made immediately thereafter. Of the many important measures having to do with public health passed at the recent session of the Illinois general assembly, the most Important and far reaching, in the judgment of Dr. Andy Hall, director of health, Is that prohibiting construction and iviodification of sewer systems without permission of the state water board. This statute is designed to prevent and abate the pollution of streams, lakes, ponds and other waters. "A general survey of the streams of tins state is anticipated under the new law," said l>octor Hall. The new three-hour airway weather service has been put into operation at tiie Springfield office of the weather bureau. A few years ago two obser vations were made and telegraphed daily; now therf are 15 ejich day-- eight airway observations sent to the --Omaha" airport weather station, two •to St. Louis, one to Chicago airport and one to Peoria in addition to the three regular observations, two of which are sent over the country for use in making weather maps, newspaper bulletins, etc. This work necessitates a day an<^ night service, including Sundays and holidays. Palace of Hospitality to House Rome Guests Rome--A "Palace of Hospitality" to be used for parties of provincial students, workmen or agriculturists visiting Rome as guests of the city, Is being fitted out and furnished by order of the governor. The "Palace of Hospitality" will consist of two or three floors of a building already used for certain municipal services^ and is close to the Tiber, near the T&mple of Vesta. Hitherto, when numerous commissions, delegates and parties of studpnts and others have come to Home on the invitation of the city they have been accommodated in schools, with consequent upsetting of the scholars work. ( The "Palace of Hospitality" will be. fitted out like a hotel, with - regular kitchens, restaurant, hatha, and writing and reading rooms. A part of it will always he kept open, but the eomplete service of dormitories, restaurants, baths and recreation rooms will only be availaMe «n such occasions as may necessitate (lie accommodation of several hundreds of persons. The receht selection of William B. Wilson; former secretary of labor, as arbitrator of labor disputes between the Illinois coal operators and the United Mine Workers of the state is generally accepted as a distinct advance In the rehali'litatlon of that industry. The wage contract entered Into last fall, which does not expire » until March 31, 1932, provides for the Joint selection of a man to till this position. It is believed that this action will have a far reaching influence and that it promises to further promote the stabilization of the industry and is an additional guarantee to the consumers of Illinois coal that tljeir source of supply from Illinois mines will be uninterrupted.

The nearest school for Dorothy 1* five miles away and she would have to cross the channel each day to get to It. Both her sisters and her h other were educated at the island school. tmd Old Bear's Head Cut From Sandstone Springfield, Mo.--Finding of a bear's head carved from sandstone on an Ozark farm near Warsaw, Mo., has Sttracted attention of archeologists. The crude yet very plain figure may be more than 1,000 years old and might h&ve been worshiped as some sort of idol by prehistoric races .which once roamed America 500 years before the landing of Columbus. The figure, two feet square, has been placed in the Drury college museum fcsra. Mine fatalities.In Illinois daring the last six months were far below the average for the entire United States, according to an announcement by A. I>. Lewis, of tlie state department of mines and minerals. During that period Illinois produced <V»0.41.~> tons of coal per each man killed, while the avenige for the entire country was 250,000 tons per each fatality. This condition of greater safety in Illinois was attributed by the director to safety campaigns, first aid training ami the absence of big explosions, due to the use of safety lamps. Aphlds, or plant lice, and cutworms are particularly active in the flower gurdeus over the state this season, Mates C. C. Comptou, assistant entomologist of the Illinois Natural History survey in a report to the College <tf Agriculture, University of Illinois.
