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

For many oceupations 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," "Foreman," " Manager,' - "Dealer," ete., without more preise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborer - Coal mine, ete.

It the occupation has been changed or given up on account of tlic 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 oceupation 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 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," unquali- fied, is indefinite); Tuberculosis of lungs, meninges, peri- toneum, ete., 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, etc. The contributory (secondary or inter- current) affeetion need not be stated unless important. Example: Measles (discase causing death), 29 ds .; Broncho- pneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symp- toms or terminal conditions, such as "Asthenia," "Anemia" (increly symptomatie), "Atrophy," "Col- lapse," "Comna," "Convulsions,"""Debility" ("Con- genital," "Senile," cte.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Hemorrhage," "Inanition," "Maras- inus," "Old age," "Shoek," "Uremia," "Weakness," cte., when a definite disease ean be ascertained as the eausc. Always qualify all diseases resulting from ehild- birth or miseurriage, as "PUERPERAL septicemia," "PUER- PERAL peritonitis," cte. State eause for which surgical operation was undertaken.

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.)

Statement of occupation. - Precise statement of occu- pation is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known. The question applies to cach and every person, irrespective of age. For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, c. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Compositor, Architect, Loco- motive 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) Sales- man, (b) Grocery; (a) Foreman, (b) Automobile factory. The material worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Laborer," "Foreman," "Manager," "Dealer," etc., without more precise specification, as Day laborcr, Farm laborer, Laborer - Coal mine, etc. Women at home, who are engaged in the duties of the household only (not paid House- keepers who receive a definite salary), may be entered as Housewife, Housework, or At home, and children, not gain- fully employed, as At school or At homc. Care should be taken to report specifically the occupations of persons engaged in domestic service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, etc. If the occupation lias 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 indicated thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have 110 occu- pation whatever, write None.
