DR. W. J. HOOD DEAD
Dr. W. J. Hood, well known Jack
|Son county physician, passed away
| at his home, near Cabin Creek church,
| four miles south of Commerce, one
i day last week, and the remains we.ee
interred in Woodbine cemetery, this
city, the following day. His funeral
was held at the local Baptist church,
conducted by Rev. P. B. Cash, as
sisted by Rev. A. J. Johnson.
Dr. Hood was at one time a citi
zen of Jefferson, and the firm of
Drs. Smith & Hood, and later Smith,
| Hood & Tuck, was composed of Dr.
j S. \ Smith, Dr. W. J. Hood and Dr.
John A. Tuck, all of whom have
crossed over the river. For a short
while Dr. Hood practiced his profes
sion at Pendergrass; but for the past
twenty years or more he has lived
at the old home of his father, the
late Hon. Zilman W. Hood. In young
manhood he was united in marriage
to Miss Mattie Watson, daughter of*
the late Dr. and Mrs. W. A. Watson,
and a sister to Miss Callie Watson.
She survives him.
Dr. Hood was a quiet, peaceable
citizen, a clever neighbor and friend,
and at the time of his death was a
member of the Baptist church at
Nicholson. He also belonged to the
Masonic fraternity and possibly oth
er orders. His many friends are
grieved at his passing, and will kind
ly remember those most bereaved.
Besides his widow, he is survived by
his aged mother, three brothers,
Messrs. J. M., R. C. and S. T. Hood,
and one sister, Mrs. Lovie Holland.
“In the quiet' of the evening he
fell on sleep.”

JUDGE HUMPHRIES
IS NAMED JUVENILE
WELFARE PRESIDENT
A movement to launch a cam
paign of education and propaganda
in behalf of the mentally defective
children of Georgia was inaugurated
Saturday in the chambers of the
Fulton county juvenile court at
which Judge John D. Humphries, of
the Fulton superior court, was elect
ed president of the temporary orga
nization, of the “Children's Aid So
ciety of Georgia.” Robert B. Mc-
Cord, known throughout the state
for his activity in children’s work,
was lamed executive director.
One of the major objectives of the
organization will be to arouse senti
ment in every county in the state
with a view to supporting the next
session of the legislature in making
a substantial appropriation for en
largement and betterment of the
state school now operating on a small
scale at Gracewood. It further was
announced as an objective of the
campaign to rai.e a fund to enable
those handling the campaign to have
access to sufficient moneys with which
to do temporary work of a construc
tive nature while the movement is
gaining impetus.
GEORGIA STEPS ON THE GAS
The State of Georgia, with fifty

in the list of states having large au
tomobile registration, according to
a report just issued by the federal
bureau of public roads.
The report gives Georgia a total
registration of <tw> hundred and
thirty-eight thousand, six hundred and
eighteen passenger cars and trucks
for the six morfths* period. Only
Florida exceeded Georgia in the per
centage of increase in automobile
registrations.
