D. 808) and the Domesday Book of William the Conqueror (A. D. 1086) are celebrated mediaeval censuses. Inter, tho census disi appeared from Europe.

INTRODUCTION

On Jtmo 1. 1921. the Census of the Dominion will be taken. The Census ihas been called “the larg- est single not of administration of tho Government." iin reference partly to its physical extent—-thc census organization covering every section of the country for u complex and many-sided thsk—anil also to the great importance of census results in the general inac- hinery of Government.

O

it may not be generally known that the credit of taking the first census of modern times belongs to Canada. The year was .1666; thcQensus was one of the Colony of New France. There had been learller records of settlement at ‘Port Royal (11605) nnd Quebec. (1608). ibut the census crf 1666 was n systematic "norminiil" enumer- tion of therpeoplie, (l. o.. u record of each individual by mime). taken for ZLHXOd date, showing the age sex. 1ilaco of residence. occupation nnd ‘conjugal condition of each person. Tho results are to be seen in document of 154 pages in the Archives of Paris, of which u transcript is in Ottawa. Altoge- ther thiis Census recorded 3,215 souls. When it is recalled that in Europe the first modern Census llilLCll ‘only from the eighteenth century (those of l-‘runce and Eng- " lztnii tinting from the first your of the nineteenth), whilst i_n the Un. ited States no (‘ensus was token before 1790, the ziirliiicvemciit of the priniitivc St. Liiwroncee Col- ony "in instituting what is today one of the [lflllfllill instruments of Government in cvrry- civilized com- munity inuy call for more than 1mg. sing 2l[)])l'0(;ill.ti0l’l. t This initial Czuitiiliiin (‘cusus was repeated several tliuos iluring the French rcglinc. iiflci- ivnii~|i n scrlos of Ices Qiiiillilrilif? invt-sligzi»

The success of the Census de- pends largely upon the coopera- tion cf the people. Without gen- eral appreciation of the ends in view. and without the cordial as- sistance of individual citizens tn- wards those ends. u gnoii census wilill ‘be impossible. A brief ties- crption of the scope. methods and purpose or the census and of its place In statistical and general ad- ministration will therefore be of interest and utill-ty at the present moment, '
