of course, nobody paid any atten-

Trend of Population IN the
United States Is Steadily
TolCard Cities.
BY DAVID DIET.

THE population of the United
i States doubled itself between
1860 and 1890, and then almost but
not quite repeated the performance
between 1890 and 1926.
In 1920 the population was three
and half times what 1t was in 1850
Any attempt to understand what
has been happening in the United
States since the Civil war can not
succeed unless this important TACT
is kept in mind.
Professor Louis Bernard Schmidt,
who has been studying what he
calls the agricultural revolution"
in the United States. has collected
figures upon the subject. He says
THE population Of the United
States, excluding the non contigu-
Gus possessions. numbered 81. 443, 32I

1920 it passed the 100000 mark,
reaching the number of 1o5,710.62o.
Immigration supplied 28,749 ,245.
OF this number 1878, 628 arrived in

been its sole representative for the
past thirty years.
By his marriage with Eliza Moon
there were ten children born, seven
of whom are now living. He has spent
his entire life in what is now Garrett
county, having in 1910 disposed of his
large farm near Oak Grove to the late
E. C. Harvey and in that year moved
to a smaller place near Mountain
Lake Park where he now resides with
his present wife, Hester LowerWhite,
and daughter Hulda Ellen.
He has been a member of the NJ. E.
church for many years, having joined
that church when he was about 10
years of age, and for many years
was class leader and Sunday school
superintendent. He well remembers
when his church held its first camp
meeting in a grove between Oakland
and the Park when he was about II
years of age, having occupied tent
with his parents during the meeting.
In addition to following farming,
using the sickle, scythe, fail, cradle,
moving machine and reaper, he also
followed the trade of shoe and boot
maker, the shoes which he made hav-
ing sale in England and many of
the States of the Union.
He has remarkably good health and
is active in both body and mind. He
still follows the pillow on his small
farm, goes to market and spends a
considerable part of his time in read
ing, of which he is very fond. He
recalls with vividness that during the
Civil War, right after the battle of
Richmond, the Confederates passed
through this section and compelled
his family to cook about everything in
the house to feed the men and supply
hay and grain for the horses. He re-
members also the building of the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad from Cum
berland to Wheeling.
He is of the old Maryland stock,
his grandfather, Henry White being a
Marylander, and his maternal grand
father, Murray Thayer, a native Of
Massachusetts.
He is receiving the hearty congrat-
ulations and well wishes of his host of
friends.

ENUMERATORS ARENAMED
TO TAKE COUNTY CENSUS

great, planning for its control is i'm
possible. The Census of Unemploy-
ment taken in April will give US a
fairly definite measure of its extent
if answers to the questions asked are
freely and carefully given. 1t will
then be possible to consider plans for
the control of the evil of unemploy-
ment.
The Unemployment Census is to be
taken as a part of the Census of
Population. In connection with the
population inquiries the enumerator
will ask questions as to employment
of all persons who are usually en-
ployed at some gainful occupation.
This will include in particular all per-
sons who usually earn wages. The
question will apply also to persons
who carry on, or who have carried on,
independent businesses of their own,
though it is not expected that very
many unemployed will be found in
this group.
The names of all gainful workers
who were not at work on the day pre-
ceding the enumerator's call will be
recorded on a special Unemployment
Schedule. Not by any means all of
those persons, however, will be coun-
ted as unemployed. Several addition
al questions will be asked with regard
to each of these persons, the most i'm
portant of which is this: "Does this
person have job of any kind?" On
the basis of the replies to this ques-
ton the returns will be separated into
two parts. Those persons who report
that they have no job will be asked
whether they are able to work, wheth-
er they are seeking job, and what is
the reason for their being out of
job. Those who report that they do
have job will be asked why they are
not at work and whether or not they
lose pay by not being at work.
Questions are to be asked, both of
those without jobs and those on lay
off, as to how long they have been
idle. It is of great Importance that
the answers to these questions be cor
rect and complete. For the extent of
unemployment depends as much on
the length of the period of idleness
as it does on the number idle. There

SOUTHAVEN NEW
DEVELOPMENT

Thirty miles from Washington
and located on the beautiful
shores of the South River, near
Camp Parole, is Southaven, Wash
ington's nearest saltwater suburb.
While the development is care
fully, but sensibly restricted, its
residents enjoy all the convent
ences Of city life, as its close
proximity to Annapolis makes
possible the delivery of such
necessities as groceries, milk, ice,
and laundry.
All outdoor sports, such as
bathing, fishing, and boating, are
available, together with com
munity piers and park facilities.
Two splendid golf courses are
within Is or 20 minutes driving
distance.
The development is ideally To-
Gated on the north shore of one
OF the clearest rivers in the State
OF Maryland. It's shore front,
covering a mile and three-quar-
terS, Is beautifully wooded and,
with g south and west exposure,
affords residents and guests of
Southaven cool river breeZeS, even
during the warmest weather.
Southaven is easily reached
from Washington by way of the
Defense Highway. It is located
21R miles from the Memorial
Cross at Bladensburg.

Is, 1t was learned yesterday. and
with this new piece of road in
operation the distance from Wash
ington to the 160-acre develop
ment of Woodward and Vieth will
be shortened to 35 miles. When
completed, the road will eliminate
approximately 10 miles of what is
now considered the most difficult
part Of the drive, namely the
stretch Of road between Marlboro
and Sunderland.
A sufficient. number Of Ken
wood Beach property owners have
applied for the installation of
electrical service that the devel-
opers feel certain that the major
ity Of the 33 bungalows already
completed will be equipped with
this convenience not later than
July l. This is a big step toward
civic improvement in a new COM
munity of this sort.
The Kenwood Beach Hotel will
be under the management of Mrs.
Edna M. Unruh, of Cherrydale,
Va, this season and will be Of
ficially opened on June 10.
The management of the beach
has reserved the use Of the big
property and beach for the ex

BIC SEASON

With more than 35 cottages
completed, Plum Point Beach, To-
Gated on Chesapeake Bay, about
40 miles from the District Line,
is preparing for one Of the most
prosperous seasons in the history
of the development. The owners
of the beach are doing their best
to make this summer haven and
the colony adjoining it the finest
of it's kind and the artesian wells
found in the cedar groves lining
the three-quarter mile beach pro-
vide the fresh water that is so
necessary to the success Of such a
development.
A modern bath house, capable
of accommodating 1000 people,
has been completed near the
waters edge. On the second floor
a 20O-foot promenade has been
installed so that its patrons nay
have a complete view of the de-
velopment and Chesapeake Bay.
The dancing pavilion now under
construction will be completed by
July / while commodious tea
house on the hillside overlooking
the bay is ready for business.
The developers of Plum Point
are planning a Venetian garden
division which when completed
will eclipse any other development
