Statement of occupation. - Precise statement of occupa- tion is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known. The question applies to each and every person, irrespective of age. For many occupations a single word or terin on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Compos- itor, Architcet, Locomotive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fireman, 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,"


"Forcman," "Manager," "Dealer," etc., 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 home, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home. Care should be taken to report spe- cifically the occupations of persons engaged in domestic service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, etc. If the occupation has been changed or given up on account of the DISEASE CAUSING DEATH, state occupation at beginning of illness. If retired from business, that fact may be indi- cated thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have no occupation whatever, write None ..


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


(name origin; "Cancer" is less definite; avoid use of "Tumor" for malignant neoplasms); Measles; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular heart disease; Chronic interstitial nephritis, 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 syinp- toms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "Anemia" (merely symptomatic), "Atrophy," "Col- lapse," "Comna," ""Convulsions,"" "Debility" ("Con- genital," "Senile," etc.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Hemorrhage," "Inanition," "Maras- inus," "Old age," "Shock," "Uremia," "Weakness," etc., when a definite disease ean be ascertained as the cause. Always qualify all discases resulting from child- birth or miscarriage, as "PUERPERAL septicemia," "PUER- PERAL, peritonitis," etc. 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 such, 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


under the head of "Contributory." ( Recommendations


on statement of cause of death approved by Committee on Nomenclature of the American Medical Association.)


Cases for the Medical Examinors. - Under the provi- sions of chapter 24 of the Revised Laws deaths under the following conditions must be referred to the Medical Examiners :


1. Deaths following injury or violence, as Burns, Falls, Drowning, Gas poisoning, Suicide, Homicide, etc.


2. Deaths supposedly caused by violence, as Criminal abortion, Poisoning, Starvation, Suffocation, Exposure, etc.


3. Sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, as A death upon the street, or one supposed to be due to Alcoholism, etc.


4. Deaths under circumstances unknown, as A person found dead, etc.

Statement of cause of death .- Name, first, the DISEASE CAUS- ING DEATH (the primary affection with respect to time and eausation), using always the same accepted term for the same disease. Examples: Cerebrospinal fever (the only definite synonym is "Epidemie cerebrospinal menin- gitis"); Diphtheria (avoid use of "Croup"); Typhoid fever (never report "Typhoid pneumonia"); Lobar pneumonia; Bronchopneumonia ("Pneumonia," unqualified, is indefi- nite); Tuberculosis of lungs, meninges, peritonaeum, etc., Car- cinoma, Sarcoma, etc., of - (name origin; “Can- cer" is less definite; avoid use of " Tumor" for malignant ncoplasms); Measles ; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular Heart disease; Chronic interstitial nephritis, etc. The eon- tributory (secondary or intercurrent) affection need not be stated unless important. Example : Measles (disease eausing death), 29 ds .; Bronchopneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symptoms or terminal condi- tions, such as "Asthenia," "Anaemia" ( inerely symptom-


atic), "Atrophy," "Collapse," "Coma," "Convulsions," "Debility" ("Congenital," "Senile," etc.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Haemorrhage," "Inani- tion," " Marasmus," "Old age," "Shock," "Uraemia," "Weakness," etc., when a definite disease ean be ascer- tained as the eause. Always qualify all diseases result- ing from childbirth or miscarriage, as "PUERPERAL septi- chaemia," "PUERPERAL 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 such, if impossible to determine 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 under the head of "Contributory." (Recommendations on statement of cause of death approved by Committee on Nomenclature of the American Medical Association. )


NOTE .- Individual offices may add to above list of undesirable terms and refuse to accept certificates containing them. Thus the form in use in New York City states: "Certificates will be returned for additional information wbich give any of the following diseases, without explanation, as the sole cause of death: Abortion, cellulitis, childbirth, convulsions, baemorrhage, gangrene, gastritis, erysipelas, meningitis, miscarriage, necrosis, peritonitis, phlebitis, pyaemia, septicbaemia, tetanus." But general adoption of tbe minimum list suggested will work vast improvement, and its scope can be extended at a later date.
