The Bahcall-Soneira (1984) model for the distribution of stars in the Galaxy is compared with the observations reported by Gilmore, Reid, and Hewett (1984) in two directions in the sky, the pole and the Morton-Tritton (1982) region. It is shown that the Galaxy model is in good agreement with the observations everywhere it has been tested with modern data, including the magnitude range, V = 17-18, and provided that the globular cluster feature is included in the luminosity function of the field Population II stars.
