The document refers to censure made by Moses of the Children of Is- rael in biblical times and to others in China, Egypt and Babylona dating back to 4,000 B.C., and points out similar canvasses are to be made at a- bout the same time in India, Austral- ia and other parts of the Empire, so that when all is' completed a compre- hensive picture of the people, of the Empire and their relation to the rest of the world will be disclosed. All information will be guarded with strict secrecy, and co-operation of citizens is asked. It is pointed out that none of the questions to be ask- ed by the census -takers has grown out of curiosity no matter how ridic- ulous it may appear. Mr. T. J. McLean, census commis- sioner for North Huron, states that blank forms have been sent from Ot- tawa to every ratepayer in the dis- trict. A careful perusal of this docu- ment by those interested will greatly facilitate the work `of the enumerator. For farmers there are some 250 questions to be answered. These deal with everything from the value of the property to the number of eggs ga- thered in year and number of pounds of milk secured. It is a national stock taking event which should show the development and wealth of the coun- try in the most minute manner, Three schools are being held this week for examination of the enum- erators. At Dungannon on Wednes- day for the Town of Goderich, town- ships of Colborne, Ashfield and West Wawanosh, At Wingham on 'Thurs- day; for the Toyvn of Wingham and Townships •of Turnberry and Howick At . i3russels on Friday for the Vil- lages of Brussels and Blyth, and the Townships of East Wawanosh, Mor- ris and Grey. Enumerators employed will num- ber 15,000. There will be 253 coin- missio'ners and 750 clerks to handle the statistics gathered. Canada is given credit for taking the first census of modern tunes -in 1616 by the colony of New France. Occupation,'age, sex and place of res- idence 'of .3,215 persons was then re- corded. Europe's first modern cen- sus was taken in the 18th century and in the t'Jnited States the first was in 1790 it is stated, Hospital range has been removed and a measure of economy and .effic- s iency has replaced it. A beautiful electric cooking equip- ment which not only will provide a saving in operating costs but also is pleasant to look upon, has brought to the hospital the very latest service provided for the purpose; plenty of oven room, plenty of cooking space, ready at a moment's notice, day or night, to minister to the necessities and comforts of the sick With it .comes new beauty and cleanliness to the kitchen, the soft tones of the spotlessly clean enamel, specially sel- ected by the Hospital Matron, Miss M. E.. Adams, harmonize beautifully with the rest of the room and adds yet another link to the chain of ef- ficiency with which our hospital pro- vides its varied ministration to those who seek its services. The President of the Chamber of Commerce had the privilege of in- specting the installation on its com- pletion, and was highly pleased with the neatness and skill displayed in the execution of the order, and the precautions taken for safety in bring-. ing in the special wiring required to service the equipment. The fact that the order carried only operating overhead because it was a hospital job made no difference in this case for the installation proved perfect in every detail. Those who saw the new equipment on Hospital Day, this week, are loud in their praise of the Chamber of Commerce for their effort to aid in marring our Hospital the best -equip- ped in this section of the Province.

Since we went . to press last week a transformation has taken place.. The large coal burning Bruce Population Increasing It cane as quite a surprise to the citizens of Chesley when assessor La- velity's figures showed an increase of 102 over the 1930 figures. We no- tice Port Elgin shows an increase of 97 over the previous year. Elderslie township also shows a slight increase. The abnormal' growth of large cen- tres at the expense of rural cornnlun- rties is not in the best interests of any community and was one of the contributory causes of the decline and fall of empires in the brave days of old.-Chesley.

Listowel Nurses Graduate A large number of friends of the graduates and of the hospital were present at the graduation exercises of the nurses of the Listowel Mem- orial Hospital in McDonald's Hall on Friday evening, April 25. The hall was beautifully decorated for the oc- casion, and the nurses in their white;, uniforms looked charming. The three graduating nurses this year were: Miss Mary McRae, Port Elgin; Miss Mary Cochrane, Clifford, and Miss Cora Lawrence, Durham, and along with them on the platform were Miss Woodard, superintendent, and the nurses -in -training. -Listowel Banner. !Becomes Gold Medalist Mr. R. Keith Love, of Kippen, in Stanley Township, who won B.A. de- gree in Western University, London, after a four years' course, has been awarded the Sanford Gold Medal in Divinity (General proficiency in 13. D. course,) also General Proficiency Scholarship (Church History), and took second place in Oratory, which when we consider the age of the stu- dent, 24 years, goes to prove that our rural students are not behind in in- telligence and ambition. EDUCATIONAL DEPT. HAS LAST WORD About a year ago Alliston under- took to neglect suggestions froni the Inspector for additional High School premises and woke up when their grants of about $3,000 were withheld. Needless to say steps were soon tak- en to provide the required building. Kincardine Board of Education has received a similar request for new school buildings, but the Board feels that the ratepayers should not be bur- dened with extra taxation at the pre- sent time, A little co-operation evi- dencing' sincerity and honest en- deavour between Board and Depart- ment will save a .lot of trouble in these matters.
