All the more mod- ern agencies of benevolence are in good working order—day nurseries, all kinds of homes for the sick and the ailing and for all ages. ‘Chattanooga, says Mrs Brock, is considering the question of pro- viding homes for the aged dependent husbands and wives and not parting them in their declining years. This merciful idea of caring for the aged whose welfare becomes the duty of the city has gained wide attention and is gradually being accepted in all munici- ‘palities. Mrs. Brock Earnest Worker In Civic Associations. Mrs. Brock is an earnest worker in the local Y. W. C. A. and in numerous civic societies. Though -deeply inter- ested in politics and those measures which relate to education, sanitation and more stringent enforcement of the law, like nearly all Southern women she plays her role less vocally than her sis~ ter voters in other parts of the Union. A constant reader of general literature #nd of the topics of the day, Mrs. Brock is & conversationalist and will without doubt prove a gracious and successful senatorial hostess. Senator and Mrs. Brock were mar- ried in 1903 and they have two sons. ‘The elder, Mr. William Emerson Brock, jr. is married and resides in Chatta- nooga. The second boy, Richard Acree Brock, is 16 and is a student at St. Alban's, in Woodley, more familiar to g:lg.{nmnh.m as the Cathedral School s. ‘The new member of the Senate and his family are Methodists and since coming to the Capital have afliated with the Mount Vernon Church, on Mount Vernon place. Mrs. Brock will add to the l}woup of senatorial hostesses who are college bred. She received her education at the Cox College, at College Park, near Atlanta, Ga.
