One will be the population and agricultural census, which will not open until April 1 and for which the personnel will not be selected until March, and the other the business and manufacturing section.

A census office which will serve us headquarters for this district will be opened in Lubboek, probably this week, said Bean. Suitable quarters have not yet been found. Betoms From School Bean announced plans for the census following his return from Amarillo, where he attended an area school for supervisors and their assistants in the districts which have headquarters In Amarillo, Wichita Falls, Memphis, Abilene, and Lubboek. The census officials studied schedules for the census and then took examinations. Walter S.

Ruffner, formerly of Lubboek, is the area supervisor with headquarters in Amarillo and he conducted the school. He has been studying in the bureau of census in Washington, D. C. There will be only 14 census enumerators in the business and manufacturing canvass. Nature of the work will be such that only persons trained in bookkeeping or accounting will be qualified to do the work.

Enumerators will be selected soon. In the population and agricultural census, approximately 140 enumerators will be needed in this district. Two Months Needed The business and manufacturing census will require about two months. Statistics will be gathered from retail and wholesale organizations, service establishments and the construction industry, as well as manufacturing, said the construction industry, as well as manufacturing, said the supervisor. Figures will be obtained on amount of business done, number of persons employed throughout the year, average weekly salaries, numbers of members of families of proprietors of establish' ments, number not employed and other related subjects.

"All statistics will be gathered so that general statistical information on various industries may be available, but so far as any particular individual is concerned the statistics will be absolutely confidential even available to the income tax man," said Bean. The census officials in this district will not be authorized to give out any information on data obtained in the census, but must send the statistics to the bureau of the census, from which data will be announced. Other Supervisors The population and agricultural census will require only about three weeks. Two clerks and one typist will be employed in the district office. Bean said the location would be announced in the press as soon as suitable headquarters are found.

You thought he already had one? Will, that's true of the fictional Santa, but It hasn't been true of Mr. Santa his real of Marshall, Mo. For years he's been trying in his own way to live up to the meaning of the he says, by a father with a sense of humor he has remained clean-shaven. This year, though, friends 'persuaded Marshall's Santa to try to look the part. When his beard is growing, he'll whiten the whiskers, don a red and white suit and be a realistic SanU for the town.

number And Pastor Eleven months a year, Mr. Claus divides his time between his plumbing trade and his Christian calling as pastor of the local Church of God. Much of the time in recent years he's had to depend on the WFA to supplement his meager earnings. But business has been bet' ter this year and Santa has had a regular job with a plumbing shop In December, however, Mr. Claus spends most of his time answering letters.

Providing for five boys (none named Santa) and two girls of his own doesn't leave him any money left to buy presents for the thousands of anxious youngsters who write him annually. But he can answer letters with that intriguing signature, "Santa Claus," and he does. Depends On Friends He has to depend on charitable I friends to help him buy the stamps tt requires quite a few to answer 1,000 annual averagi but he keeps writing as long as the stamp money holds out. There have times in recent years when he cut short the Christmas pleasures of his own family to answer more letters. The missives from hopefa dddies started coming this year before the first Thanksgiving.

His mail grows heavier daily. Santa is unhappy that some nations will be at war this Christmas but hopes that the United States can stay that "peace on earth' can remain this nation's Christmas motto. With a war in progress, he believes more attention should be paid to toys given youngsters. He doesn' believe they should be given guns to play or no war. "I- would be a wise idea to get their minds away from guns." Santa says "It's not so much the war I'm thinking of, but holdups and things of that sort.

Kids will be kids, and war toys will be used all in play now but they might reflect on their later lives."
