Mrs. Hattie Hendrix Allen, wifeM)i Judge John T. Allen, passed away at her home in this city Sunday evening", March 12th, at half-past eight o'clock. Mrs. Allen had been in ill health for the past several months, and medical skill and tender care failed to restore her to health. Her vitality gradually succumbed and she grew . weaker, yielding to death after a brave and patient fight for life. It \ was realized a few days before she - died that the end was approaching, And her death was not unexpected but came as a shock to her loved ones. The news of the death of Mrs. Allen was heard throughout the city with profound sorro-w, and the sympathy of all our people went out to the stricken home. The funeral services were held at the residence Tuesday morning at eleven o'clock by Rev. T. G. Watts and Dr. J. W. Goode, in the presence of a large concourse of people, who gathered to pay the last tribute of respect to one whose life had been . spent in this community, and had won the love and esteem of our people. The remains were interred jn the city cemetery, the procession being one of the longest ever seen in the city. The Cadet Battalion of the Georgia Military "College acted as an honorary escort, and the pallbearers ? were: Messrs. J. E. Pottle, W. T. Garrard, L. C. Hall, John T. Day, Dixon Williams, J. D. Howard, John Conn, J. F. Bell, R. B. Moore and Dr. George E. Green. The floral offerings were large in numbers and beautiful, coming from sympathetic friends in this and other cities. j Mrs. Allen before her marriage was vMiss * Hattie Hendrix, the second daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Hendrix, and was born and reared in tfcis city. In early womanhood, soon after her graduation from the Georgia Military College, she was united in marriage to Judge John T. Allen. Four, children blessed their ^union and her love and affection centered. around the home, she giving ^largely of her time and thought for i ^e ^comfort^ her loved, ones, no sacrifce being too great * for her to make. As the years passed and her children were growing to man and womanhood, she proved a ; loving and sympathetic wife and companion, aiding and encouraging in times of adversity and prosperity alike, meeting, the duties and responsibilities cheerfully and happily. ^ iffrs. Allen,was a member of the - Presbyterian church and always manifested^., interest in its advancement, being connected with the Woman's Missionary Society, fathfully discharging her duties. She was an active worker in the R. B. Lee Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy and the Woman's Club and other civic organizations. Mrs. Allen was one of Milledgeville's best beloved women and her passing away is a distinct loss to Milledgeville. She will long be remembered by-hundreds of friends, who loved her. She is survived by Judge Allen, a son, Mr. Marion Allen, of Atlanta: three daughters, Miss Isabel Allen, of this city: Mrs. Loyd D. Brown, of Gainesville, and Mrs. W. T. Garrard.

George, Mrs. James Caugnman, Miss Ellen Hendrix, and Mr. Ed. T. Hen' drix of Columbia are cousins of the departed one. "A JOB FOR MY BIDDY." Spurred on by the fact that many ex-servcie men are still jobless, the American Legion has launched a nation-wide 30-day employment drive through its 11,000 posts. Employed veterans everywhere in the United States have volunteered to devote their spare time and money for the big job-hunt, in behalf of their less fortunate comrades. The President's Conference on Unemployment in Washington, has been J asked to cooperate. All the backing j it can give, together with the use ol its machinery and organization, has been made available. Hanford Mac"Vi/Jor "National Commander of the Legion, will direct the campaign from his headquarters in Indianapolis. "A Job for my Buddy" is the idea with which every employed veteran will work until April 20. SMALLPOX. The Department of Commerce, through the Bureau of the Census, announces that there have been very few deaths from smallpox in recent years. Since the beginning of annual compilations in 1900 the highest rate from this cause in the death registra! tion area of the United States was 6.6 per 100,000 population in 1902, while in 1903 it was 4.2 and in 1904. 2.1, since which time the rate for the registration area has never reached 1 per 100,060 population. Much higher rates in certain States and cities however, clearly show that the danger of smallpox in an unvaccinated population must noFTJe lost sight of.. The high rate (9.2) in 1920 in Louisiana should serve as a warning. STRAW HAT DYES?CLEANERS.
