According to the Census of '1920 10.8 per con, or about two-fifths of he people of the state of South Caro ina are either infants or children inder 15 years of age; 10.9 per cen4 tre young people 15 to 19 years old; 13.8 per cent, about one-third, are nlen and women in the 1prime of life, Ieing from 20 to 44 years old; while 14.4 per cent, being 45 years of a-ge and )Yer, are ,well along in middle life if hey have not reached old age. The urban population as compared v'ith the rural shows some rather trilking diffeiences In age, the per -entage 20 to 4. years of age being 13.2 )er cent for the uriin 'population as -ompared-wIth 31.8 per cent for the ru -al, while the percentage nider 15 rears of age Is 30.2 per cent in the irban ipopulation as against -13.1 in lie rural. These differences may indi ,ate larger families of children in the -ountry than in the city, but probably ndicate also the fact that country -hildren as they growt up have la ten lency to flock to the cities, thereby in ,reasing the active adult population of he cities at the expense of the rural listricts. Over two-fifths of the population, [6.3 per cent, are old enough to vote, )eing 21 or over; and in this class lie men and -women are practically qual in numbers. The males of mil. ary or fighting age, IS to 41, consti ute 36.5 per cent of the male popula ion and 18.2 per cent of the total ,pop ilation.
