HALF OF AMERICANS WORK
Fifty Per Cent of Those More Thar
Ten Years Old Employed

Fifty Per Cent of Those More Thar
Ten Years Old Employed
More than so per cent of the inhab
itants of the United States more than
ten years old work for a living, the
census bureau announces. Persons OF
both sexes engaged in gainful occupa
tions total Al ,6O9,1 1872, the bureau states
on the basis of the 1920 census.
This represents 1914 per cent of the
total population and 50.3 per cent of
all persons more than ten years old In
1910 the workers numbered 38, 1877 1886
or per cent less than the 1920 fig
ures, but the workers then comprised
41.5 per cent Of the entire population
and 53.3 per cent of the inhabitants
more than ten years old at work
This drop in the ratio over 1920
probably is due to the change in the
season for taking the census, the bu-
reau states The last census was taken
in the winter of 1920 when work was
at minimum. Of the 1920 totals, 3d.
O59,593 were males and S549, ,399 were
females Workers of both sexes in
creased proportionately since 1910,

BRITISH LOSE BILLION
Hit Hard by Strike and Boycott
in India.
Ghandi, Boycott Leader Considers
Violence Mortal Sin-His Punish
ment Would Set All India
Afame.

Washington.-Ho a slender, mild
hammered man of fifty-two, who be-
lieves violence of any kind mortal
sin, has caused the British government
more trouble than any number Of
revolutionists, was described in an aQ-
dress to the National Popular Govern
ment league by Syud Hossian
"The English government knows not
what to do with this man, Mahatma
Ghandi," said Hossan.
IF they imprison or execute him 1t
will set India afiame. If they allow
his non-violent, non-co-operative move
ment of boycotting British goods and
everything British to proceed, it will
bankrupt them and overturn the
strategic center Of empire in the
Orient.
This month is the first anniver-
sary of the start of the boycott insti-
tuted by Ghandi, and it has already
cut down English export trade to 25
per cent of it's normal volume, result
ing in cash loss of not less than
$1,000, 100000
II the same success ATTENDS tnc
refusal to pay taxes, which began
last month, it will mean loss Of
S3000O0,000 per year in revenue to the
government, which means collapse.
John Bull is being hit in his most
vulnerable spot-his pocketbook."
Hossian described Ghandi as the
most remarkable person he had ever
met He quoted Colonel Wedgewood,
member Of parliament, as saying:
"Ghandi is the only man in the
world whose name can be mentioned
with that of Jesus Christ without
bIasphemy."
Although a trained lawyer" said
Hossian, "Ghandi earns his living as
weaver. He works at his modest
home, is great reader and student.
"Ghandi believes the use of vio-
lence in any form is a mortal sin.
Physical force he regards as the wea-
pom, not of the strong, but of the
weak
"He thinks the most potent instru-
ment for all purposes is soul force
and the power of self suffering and
does not permit himself an unkind
thought, even toward his bitterest enc
miles,"

COURT CANCELS DEED BY
SCION OF GEORGE III
Mental lncompetency Inherited
From Royal Great-Great-
Grandfather Is Alleged.

| H. G. Huffaker, an eccentric minis
ter and large land owner of Wayne
county. Kentucky, was a great great
grandson of King George III Of Eng
land and inherited insanity from his
royal ancestors, according to testimony
presented to the Court of Appeals. The
suit was one filed by heirs to set aside
deed made by Huffaker to a son on
the grounds of mental incompetency.
That kentucky had long been en-
pertaining unawares direct descend
ants of Farmer George was set forth
by a witness, who said:
"In 1860 a daughter of George III
married Scotchman named Graham.
The couple immigrated to North Caro-
lima, where they founded the town OF
Graham Their daughter married a
Lowe and a daughter of this marriage
became the wife of Christopher Huff
faker, father of II. G. Huffaker. Ec-
centricities developed in every gen
Grafton of the line Family records
proved the authenticity of the claim of
royal ancestry.
"Huffaker believed that one Swift
had discovered silver on his place.
Swift was killed by Indians and
Huffaker dug all over the place try
ing to find the vein of silver or the
place where the Indians had buried
their loot He also was confident
there was oil, and there he was right
"It was his action in deciding the
mineral rights to his son, B. G. Huffa-
ker, in 1914, that resulted in the suit
being brought by other heirs after the
oil was struck. Huffaker died in 1917
at the age of "a years"
The Court of Appeals affirmed the
deed and Judge Sampson, in his opin-
ion mentioned that "Huffaker was q
direct descendant of King George I'LL"

Animal Did Not Stop Though Shot
Three Times at Close Rance

Three Times at Close Range
OF all the adventures experienced by
hunters this season, Samuel Crone. q
Shamokin Pa, butcher, can boast OF
one of the most thrilling. Crone occu-
pied the Hays road cabin in the four
teen-mle narrows of the Buffalo noun
tains above here, and was out for bear
the other morning when he encoun-
tered one that weighed about 400
pounds.
The hunter dropped the animal with
a bullet from his rifle, but the bear
rose and, bowling with pain, raced
toward Crone on all fours Two more
shots were fired and struck the tough
hide of the animal, infiicting painful
wounds, but each time the bear re-
fused to stay down. and by the time
1t was 10 feet in front of Crone the
latter's weapon jammed.
Desperate, the hunter decided to
battle with the stock of his rifle as a
club and stood his ground as the ami
NAL rose on It's hind legs as If to rush
him. Suddenly the bear changed its
mind and turned and ran limping into
the woods.

chasing until he got to the door OF

any trouble running when you thought
he was after you.
Mr.. Fox tried TO look very meek and
forlorn, but he was not quite sure how
il would work now. 81 think could

If you have any chicken broth yor

YOU will have TO brace up enough Il

The look in his wife's eyes as sh'

strongerll He jumped up from the foo

that il would be better for his happi
