WAR AFFECTS BIG-GAME HUNTING.
The war in Europe has reached into the heart of the African jungles to cause a most unusual unemployment problem. Osa Johnson, in Hollywood to supervise the editing of Columbia's "I Married Adventure," has received the news from her personal safari servants in Africa. The servants complain that during her absence they have no means of earning a livelihood because the, war 's preventing biggame hunters from going to Africa. The cessation of big-game expeditions has thrown practically all of the native gun bearers, cooks, houseboys, and other natives out of employment. Mrs. Johnson has forwarded to her servants, who have been with her for twenty years, funds to feed and clothe them until she launches her next expedition.
