After a month's illness, Mrs. D. A. Warlick, nationally-known leader in the Women's Christian Temperance Union movement, died in a hospital here at 7:40 a.m. yesterday. She was 59 years old. Her illness had been serious only for a day.
W.C.T.U. leaders from various parts of the sate will come to Macon to attend Mrs. Warlick's funeral at 5 p.m. today in the chapel of Hart's mortuary. Dr. Ed F. Cook, pastor of Mullberry Street Methodist church, will conduct the services, interment will be in Riverside cemetery.
Mrs. Warlick, formerly Miss Leila Hart, was born in Montpelier Springs in Monroe county, Nov. 14, the daughter of John W. and Mrs. Elizabeth Hawthorne Hart. She had made her home here most of her life and recently had lived with her brother, J. Freeman Hart, at his home at 418 College street. She attended grammar school and high schools here and took literary and musical courses later at Wesleyan college.
Active in Church
Mrs. Warlick was active in all affairs of Mulberry Street Methodist church, of which she was a member. She took part in the church missionary society and its Sunday school, in which she was president of the Loula Evans Glass class for several years.
Her most outstanding work was in connection with the W.C.T.U. For eight years she had been president of the local unit of the organization and during her presidency the Macon union has grown to be the largest in the state. For seven years she was president of the sixth district W.C.T.U. and had held various other local offices, serving also a number of state W.C.T.U. committees and directorships. She attended national W.C.T.U. conventions in Minneapolis, Minn., and San Francisco, Cal., and the world W.C.T.U. convention in Philadelphia, Pa., and Lausanne, Switzerland, the latter in 1928.
Leadership was characteristic
Her characteristic work in the W.C.T.U. was the leadership in obtaining interesting new workers and training children, her associates said yesterday. Even after she had been confined to bed in her last illness, she continued planning committees and organization outlines for the state W.C.T.U. convention in October.
Among the state W.C.T.U. leaders who will come here to attend Mrs. Warlick's funeral will be Mrs. Mary Scott Russell, Atlanta, president: Miss Florence Ewell Atkins, Milledgeville, state field secretary. The Loula Evans Glass class and the Mulberry Missionary Society and the Macon W.C.T.U. will form an honorary escort at the funeral.
