The Census Enmity at a Boarding House Experience
A humorous tale follows Miss Harkins and fellow boarders as they discuss the census. The party exchanges views on secrecy and embarrassment while the landlady cleverly manages the filling of forms, adding comic friction over who writes whose line. A narrator describes Nora’s reluctance and the enumerator’s arrival as the papers pass from hand to hand. The piece blends social satire with census protocol anecdotes from a early 20th century setting.
