WAR CENSUS CARDS.
From 'Medico':— 'For the fake of. enu
merators,. elderly' people, and all concerned,
it would have tieen greatly apprecaied if
the census cards had been of a colour more
pleasing to ithe eye than pink, a paper that
was not absorbent (something like blot
ting paper), and in considerably larger
type. A fine pen sticks in tlie paper and
a thick pen bhir&.and will not make small
enoosrh figures. ??' Mistakes involve a large
amount/of calculation over again, and mag
nifying glasses are needed by many to r-ad
the ttype comfortably. This land is noted
for eyestrain.- and everything that can
possibly be done to eliminate it.s causes
should be done. Further, arithmetic is
not the strong point of the whole popula
tion over 18, and the attention should not
be called from any calculations by difficul
ties of a nature which could be avoid*!.'
