The same conclusions are to be derived from the following statements from the office of a superintendent of schools in Michigan : " The census is taken under the direction of the school Board and paid for by them. In this city (35,000) the census costs Providence and Detroit loi $250 including tabulation, the census takers being paid 3 cents a name." " The enumerators are appointed each year, one for each ward, although it happens that in most of the wards, the same people have acted for a numb...er of years." " There is no way of keeping the census up to date, but the annual counting is not the only check of the evasion of the com- pulsory education law. We have a card catalog of pupils at- tending school. By comparing the list with the census as taken, we secure a list of delinquents to look up." " We could, of course, keep a more accurate check, if the school census were in card form and subject to regular correc- tion through the year." " The returns are not copied so as ' to group in enrollment for given schools.' " (The Superintendent does not, therefore, make clear how the comparison, mentioned just before, is actually carried out.) " My (the Superintendent's) opinion is that the primary ob- ject of the Michigan school census is for the determination of the distribution of school funds.
