Statement of occupation. - Preeise statement of oeeupa- tion is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known.

For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Compos- itor, Architcet, Locomotive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fireman, cte. But in many cases, especially in industrial employments, it is necessary to know (a) the kind of work and also (b) the nature of the business or industry, and therefore an additional line is provided for the latter statement; it should be used only when needed. As examples: (a) Spinner, (b) Cotton mill; (a) Salesman, (b) Grocery; (a) Forcman, (b) Automobile factory. The ma- terial worked on may form part of the sceond statement. Never return "Laborer,"


"Foreman," "Manager," "Dealer," cte., without more precise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborer - Coal mine, cte. Women at home, who are engaged in the duties of the household only (not paid Housekeepers who receive a definite salary), may be entered as Housewife, Housework, or At home, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home. Care should be taken to report spe- eifieally the oceupations of persons engaged in domestic service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, ete. If the occupation has been changed or given up on aceount of the DISEASE CAUSING DEATH, state oceupation at beginning of illness. If retired from business, that fact may be indi- catcd thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have no oceupation whatever, write None.


Statement of cause of death .- Naine, first, the DISEASE CAUSING DEATH (the primary affeetion with respect to time and eausation), using always the same accepted term for the same disease. Examples: Cerebrospinal fever (the only definite synonym is "Epidemic cerebrospinal menin- gitis"); Diphtheria (avoid use of "Croup"); Typhoid fever (never report "Typhoid pneumonia"); Lobar pneumonia; Bronchopneumonia ("Pneumonia," unquali- fied, is indefinite); Tuberculosis of lungs, meninges, peri- toncum, etc., Carcinoma, Sarcoma, ete., of_


(name origin; "Caneer" is less definite; avoid use of "Tumor" for malignant neoplasms); Measles; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular heart disease; Chronic interstitial nephritis, ete. The contributory (secondary or inter- current) affeetion need not be stated unless important. Example: Measles (disease eausing death), 29 ds .; Broncho- pneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symp- toms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "Anemia" (merely symptomatic), "Atrophy," "Col- lapse," "Coma," "Convulsions,"" "Debility" ("Con-


genital," "Senile," ete.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Hemorrhage," "Inanition," "Maras- inus," "Old age," "Shoek," "Uremia," "Weakness," etc., when a definite disease ean be ascertained as the eause. Always qualify all discases resulting from child- birth or miscarriage, as "PUERPERAL septicemia," "PUER- PERAL peritonitis," ete. State cause for which surgical operation was undertaken. For VIOLENT DEATHS STATE MEANS OF INJURY and qualify as ACCIDENTAL, SUICIDAL, or HOMICIDAL, or as probably sueh, if impossible to de- termine definitely. Examples: Accidental drowning; Struck by railway train - accident; Revolver wound of head - homicide; Poisoned by carbolic acid - probably suicide. The nature of the injury, as fracture of skull, and consequences (e. g., sepsis, tetanus) may be stated

The question applies to each and every person, irrespective of age. For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Compos- itor, Architect, Locomotive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fircman, etc. But in many cases, especially in industrial employments, it is necessary to know (a) the kind of work and also (b) the nature of the business or industry, and therefore an additional line is provided for the latter statement; it should be used only when needed. As examples: (a) Spinner, (b) Cotton mill; (a) Salesman, (b) Grocery; (a) Foreman, (b) Automobile factory. The ma- terial worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Laborer," "Foreman," "Manager," " Dealer," ete., without more precise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborer - Coal mine, etc. Women at home, who are engaged in the duties of the household only (not paid Housekeepers who receive a definite salary), may be entered as Housewife, Housework, or At homc, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home.

(name origin; "Cancer" is less definite; avoid use of "Tumor" for malignant neoplasms); Measles; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular heart disease; Chronic interstitial ncphritis, etc. The contributory (secondary or inter- current) affection need not be stated unless important. Example: Measles (disease causing death), 29 ds .; Broncho- pneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symp- toms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "Anemia" (merely symptomatic), "Atrophy." "Col- lapse," "Coma,' 1." "Convulsions,"" "Debility" (“Con-
