As examples: (a) Spinner, (b) Cotton mill; (a) Solesmon, (b) Grocery; (a) Foremon, (b) Automobile foctory. The material worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Lahorer," "Foreman," "Manager," "Dealer," etc., without more precise specification, as Doy loborer, Farm loborer, Laborer - Cool mine, etc. Women at home, who are engaged in the dutics of the house- hold only (not paid Housekeepers who receive a definite salary), may he entered as Housewife, Housework, or At home, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home.

EXTRACTS FROM THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS GOVERNING THE RETURN OF CERTIFICATES OF DEATH

A physician shall forthwith, after the death of a person whom he has attended during his last illness, at the request of an undertaker or other authorized person or of any member of the family of the deceased, furnish for registration a standard certificate of death, stating to the best of his knowledge and helief the name of the deceased, his supposed age, the disease of which he died [defined so that it can be classified under the international classification of causes of death], where contracted, the duration of his last illness, when last seen alive hy the physician, and the date of his death. . . . - Revised Lows, Chap. 29, Secs. 10 and 1, as amended by Acts of 1910, Chap. 322.

No undertaker or other person shall hury a human body . . . until he has received a permit from the hoard of health or its agent, . . . or .. . from the clerk of the city or town in which the person died; . . . no such permit shall be issued until there shall have been delivered to such board, agent or clerk, . . . a satisfactory written statement con- taining the facts required by law to be returned and recorded, which ... shall he accompanied by a satisfactory certificate of the at- tending physician, if any, as required by law, or in lieu thereof a certifi- cate as hereinafter provided. If there is no attending physician, or if, for sufficient reasons, his certificate cannot be obtained early enough for the purpose, or is insufficient, the chairman of the board of health, if a physician, or any physician employed by said board or by the selectmen for the purpose, shall upon application make such certificate as is required of the attending physician. If death is caused by violence, the medical examiner only shall make such certificate. ... The person to whom the per- mit is so given and the physician who certifies to the cause of death shall thereafter furnish for registration any other necessary information which can he obtained as to the deceased, or as to the manner or cause of the death, which the clerk or registrar may require. - Revised Laws, Chap. 78, Sec. 38.

Medical examiners shall, in all cases, certify to the city or town clerk or to the city registrar in the place where the deceased died, his name and residence, if known, otherwise a description of such person as full as may he, with the cause and manner of his death, and shall make examination upon the view of the dead bodies of only such persons as are supposed to have come to their death by violence. - Revised Lows, Chop. 24, Sec. 8.

RULES OF PRACTICE

The fulfilment of the purpose of these laws calls for the observance of the following rules of practice:

(1) Attending physicians will certify to such deaths only as those of persons to whom they have given hedside care during a last illness from disease unrelated to any form of injury.

(2) Board of Health Physicians will certify to such deaths only as those of persons who, though disahled by recognized disease unrelated to any form of injury, have died without recent medical attendance or whose physician is absent from home when the certificate of death is needed.

(3) Medical examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths sup- posably due to injury. These include not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following abortion, hut also deaths from disease resulting from injury or infection related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disahled hy recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.

N. B .- Every item of information should be carefully supplied. AGE should be stated EXACTLY. PHYSICIANS should state CAUSE OF DEATH in plain terms, so that it may be properly classified. Exact statement of OCCUPATION is very
