part, new and 1850 part, in
building her husbands future

She often works in an Office and
cooks and cleans at home and
does her own laundry. and some
times that of her husband. She
has a complex life and should
learn to organize it so that her
health will not suffer. She and
her husband should try to find
time for outdoor exercises even If
it is just walk before going to
sleep at night or a few exercises
taken together in the morning.
There are SO many exercises
which are good for both men and
women. For instance, they can
both profit by the front bend and
the following abdominal exercises.
Lie on the floor on your back with
your legs straight and your arms
resting on the floor at your sides.
Lift the left leg from the floor
(knee stiff. AS you lower the left
leg to the floor lift the right leg.
One leg moves down as the other
moves up. Do not touch the heels
to the floor if you can help it,
once you begin this exercise.
Bring the heels close to the floor
but do not touch it.
Another: Lie on the floor on
your back. Bend both knees close
to the stomach, straighten the
legs toward the ceiling and slowly
lower legs to the floor, knees stiff.
Posture exercises are helpful to
both the man and the woman.

you bring them sideward-down-
ward. Keep your head erect.

FoshionNotes

Eve Arden, vivacious and chic
star Of the theater who is now ap-
pearing at Olney Theater in "Over
21." remarked the other day that
though she likes the idea of East
ern women adopting California
casualness in their clothes, she
wishes more women would go back
to the habit of dressing up" for
occasions.
She sort Of misses this, and
feels that one step in the right
direction would be if women would
sort Of pull themselves together"
and pay more attention to the
small details Of fashion. These
include always wearing clean
white gloves (the great American
fashion signature note>, under
stating their fashions by always
choosing the neatest and not the
busiest kind Of dress, and not
the easiest item in your wardrobe
to get into. Another pet peeve of
Miss Arden's lies in the print
dress domain. Most women
seem able to pick out the most
horrible ones to wear" she stated.

wide selection" she followed
quickly.
Finding the correct hairstyle is
the most difficult thing for a.
great many women. She feels
that it can make or break a wom-
ans otherwise attractive appear
ance.
Regarding her stage wardrobe,
which is the last word on the
fashion scene, she finds that two
complete wardrobes are needed.
One alternates with the other in
the event Of cleaning. or an emer-
gency such as a dress whose zip
per won't zip. She does not wear
her stage fashions off-stage. but
is terribly fond of their slick styl-
ing. which was done for her by
Ruth Gompert on the West Coast.

Confusion in Census FIGURES Is
Caused by Including University
Students in Towns Population;
Comparison with $40 Difficult

A letter to Mayor Edwin S.
Lanier from ]. D. Rogers, Jr., Of
High Point, U. S. Census Super
visor of this territory, gives the
1850 population of the town Of
Chapel Hill-that is, inside the
corporate limits, not including
any of the suburbs-as 9,169.
This is an increase of 5,515, or
$50 per cent, over the 1910 Cen
sus figure, 1864.
But it does not mean what it
appears to mean, for the reason
that this year, for the first time
in the history Of the Census, Uni
versity students were counted as
part of the Chapel Hill popula-
ton. A special order from the
Census Bureau in Washington,
issued shortly before the Census
was taken three months ago, di-
rected the inclusion of students
in the population Of all univer-
sity and college towns, though of
course the great majority of stu
dents are only temporary resi-
dents-as ordinarily understood,
non-residents.
To get the true population Of
Chapel Hill in 1950-that is, the
number of real residents-you
have to deduct the students in
cluded in the 1850 figure. But
they cannot be deducted because
nobody knows how many. there
are. Even a careful checking of
the sheets turned in by the
Ienumerators would not give the
information, because the ques-
tionnaire did not include any
question a. to sh4thar or not tbs

The University records show
4,299 students in dormitories and
fraternity and sorority houses.
The number in trailers (includ-
ing all family members) is esti-
mated at 425. Suppose you add
800 (this is just a guess of the
editor's) for the students living
in homes and other lodging
places in the town. These figures
add up to 5,024. Subtract 5,024

Mrs. Chamberlain 80;
Birthday Celebrated

A gay company thronged the
home of Mrs. Hope S. Chamber
lain on East North street We'd
nesday evening. The occasion
was the celebration of her 80th
birthday. She was born June 81,
1870, in Salisbury.
Relatives of hers at the party
were her nieces, Miss Jane Sum-
merell of Greensboro and Miss
Bessie Summerell, of Spartan
burg, s. c.; her daughter-in-law,
Mrs. John Chamberlain of Ra-
leigh; her granddaughter, Mrs.
Max Edney of Chapel Hill; and
her niece-in-law, Mrs. julius
Chamberlain, with two daugh-
ters and one son.
Books by Mrs. Chamberlain
are "Old Days in Chapel Hill, !"
illustrated with her own pen
and-ink sketches, and "This
Was Home" the recollections of
her youth in Salisbury. She re-
Gently completed q biography of
her grandfather, the scientist,
Elisha Mitchell, for whom Mount
Mitchell, the highest peak east of
the Mississippi, is named. And
she has written numerous arti-
cles for magazines and newspa-
pers.
Mrs. Chamberlain makes few
concessions to age. She has had
to slow down a little as far as
physical movement is concerned,
specially movement up and down
steps. But she still goes about.
She attends to her housekeeping
she weaves rugs expertly; she
converses in spirited fashion
with friends who come in; she
continues to write; and now and
then she paints q picture.

at High Point:
Orange county; 1850 popula-
ton 34,415; 1910 population, 3d.
072; increase, 11,343. Since Uni
versity students were included
in the count this year, and were
not included in 1910, and since
the University enrolment at the

$500, the increase of the resi-
dent population in Orange county

Hillsboro: 1860 pop, 1918;
1910 pop, 1911; increase, Z.
Carrboro: 1850 pop, 1889
1910 pop, 1,455; increase, 334.
For each of these two towns
the figure is for the population
inside the corporate limits. Both
communities have had a large
growth around the edges, out
side the corporate limits.

twenty days after the day,
