Everything from aeroplanes to
snowshoes is being used by the aientn
of Uncle Sam in taking the 1920
census of the United States. About
the only modern method of transpor-
tation either on over or below land
or water that has not been employed
in enumerating Uncle Sam's nieces
and nephews seems to be the subma-
rine. Aeroplanes have come in handy in
enumerating the dwellers on the is-
lands off the coast of Florida;
yachts and rowboats have been used
in the hnrhors of the country; native
ennoes have been in demand among
the Hawaiian Islands! "flivers" are
being used everywhere; the tried and
trusty mule team has carried the
census takers out on the desert re-
gions; and snowshoes have become
the trusted aides of the census gath-
erers in the northern states and Alaska.
