ROAD ADVOCATES 'HOLD MEETINGS Interest Growing in Bond Issue for Roads of Georgia. Atlanta, Ga. f Aprif 19. — Sup porters of the $75,000,000 road bond issue are enthusiastic this week over reports coming into headquarters from counties which held mass meetings last week in the interest of the road bonds. In the past ten days good roads advocates have held mass meet ings in Eastman, Oglethorpe, Cuthbert, Gray, Metter, Lump kin and Dalton, at each of which enthusiastic endorsement of the bond campaign was given and plans laid for perfecting county organizations so as to get the bond issue before the people throughout the counties who had not attended the mass meetings. At Dalton eighteen North Georgia counties represent ed by their county commissioners, and each county pledged its sup port to the bond issue. North Georgia is particularly enthusiastic over the bond plan of completing the state highway system, for this section of the state suffers more, probably, as a result of impassible roads than does the lower sections of the state. Citizens of this section contend that when the state sys tem is completed, the mountains of North Georgia will become as popular summer resorts as are the mountains of North Carolina; therefore, instead of regarding the proposed bond issue as a pos sible burden upon the people, they consider it the wisest sort of an investment and they are working hard to see that it goes through. i- > Two Men Are Shot in Jeff Davis County. Hazlehurst, Ga., April 17. —As the result of a shooting affray five miles from here yesterday morning, Floyd Whitfield, said to be dying, and Cliff McCormick are in a local sanitarium and W. H.

Waycross, Ga., April 18.—D. L. Keen, of this city, was drown ed in the Satilla River near Folks ton early yesterday morning.
