Things
WILL COUNT UNEMPLOYED

An army of 10000 census takers

the biggest question campaign of the
decade. Everyone alive on Tuesday,
April 2, will be counted; disregard

ufacturers and other business, such as
wholesalers and retailers, started on
January 2 and are still operating. The
tally on housing and agriculture will
start next week.
Populations enumerators started
their rounds Tuesday because of a
technicality. Ten years ago Congress
ordered censuses to begin April 2 each
decade, because April /, 1880, was on
Sunday.
Things to be tabulated include not
only the age, sex and location of every
person, but such other items as indi-
vidual income from wages up to five
thousand dollars, location five years
ago, education, citizenship, employ
ment status, marital status and occu-
patton.
In the housing census will be ques-
tions about value, type and size of
structures, mortgage indebtedness and
whether occupancy is by owners or
renters.
The agricultural census will tabu-
late the number, acreage and value of
farms and farm buildings, nature and
acreage of different crops, mortgage
indebtedness and number of workers.
Next to the population total, the
figures most sought in the census will
be the count of unemployed the
first such tabulation in the history of
the country. This figure may be the
basis of far-reaching legislation in the
future.
Some of the enumerators working in
Garrett county include Dwight SPEECH

DANIEL SCHELL KILLED IN
MINE BY FALL OF ROCK
German Man was Working Alone
In Opening When Caught

Daniel A. Schell, about So years f
age, of near German, was killed when
he was buried under a quantity of
earth and rock in a small coal mine,
known as the SEES" mine at Cor
man, Monday afternoon about 300
o'clock. His body was not found until
three hours later, when his family be-
came worried about his absence from
the evening meal, and search was in
stituted. His body was discovered by
Earl Schell, a son, only about seven
feet from the mine entrance. A ply
stefan placed the time of his death at
about three o'clock.
Mr.. Schell had gone to the mine
following his midday meal to clear up
fall of rock, preparatory to placing
some timbers to support the roof. He
was evidently at work at this task
when the fall occurred, covering him
completely except for the top of his
head. 1t appeared as though his faith
full dog and constant companion had
dug around his head in an effort to
get to him. A cross tie lay over his
back. The examining physician said
there was no bones broken and it is
not known whether he was rendered
unconscious and suffocated, or whether
he suffered pain prior to his death.
he suffered prior to his death, but the
earth was wet where his head lay and
it is presumed he must have suffocated.
Mr.. Schell was born in Maysville,
West Va. Surviving are his widow,
Mrs. Pearl Schell, and the following
children: Carl and Herman Schell, of
German; Harold Schell, Mountain
Lake Park; Eugenia Evans, Western
port; Mrs. Mary Rowe, Akron, o.;
Elizabeth, Lucille and Eleanor Lee, at
home; also four sisters, Miss Provo
Schell, Medley, w. Va; Mrs. Kate
Davis, Gormania; Mrs. Marion Bosley,
Franklin, Md, and Mrs. Martha Rick
er, Purgittsville, Nd.
Funeral services were conducted on
Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
at the Methodist church in Gormania,
with Rev. Ira Lyons officiating. In
terment was in the Pope cemetery,

weather conditions to make the sap

long and then let go in too big a
hurry. Ideal sugar weather is warm

Trout Season Opens-Weather
Favorable For The Fish

The trout season opened Monday

have been out the last four days, only
few catches of any size have been re-
ported. Arden May, Oakland, landed
a 24-inch trout.
Streams of the county have been
well stocked by the State, but the
weather has not been favorable-ex-
cept for the fish. Rains and thunder
storms the past few days have made
waters high and muddy.
