Floody,• aged 51 years; 8 • months and 18 days, founder of garden cities, in Worcester and oth- er cities, died of grip at lois home; 1193,Orafton street, yesterday morn- ing. Rev, Dr. Floody has been in failing health .the past winter and the past year he devoted the greater 'part of his labors to outdoor work for the benefit of his health. Me was "known all over Worcester as a friend of the boys and,.girls, especially the young- sters who had- an aanbition to work and become good citizens. Ile organized the garden cities in Worcester eight years ago and under his direction these gardens have spread to, all sections of Worcester, interesting hundreds of boys and girls. Rev. Dr. Floody .was born at Cart- wright, Canada, and was educated in the Public and High schools of Clin- ton, Ontario, Canada, and took a course, in the Teachers' training school. His early ministerial work was at Gladwin, Mich. Iie served al- so in the Freeport. and Olivet church- es. .He was married to Miss Addie Beecher in 1884. IIe graduated from Albion college in 1899 and that, col- lege conferred upon him the degree of doctor of divinity. He entered the School of tiaeology in 1894. In the same year he earned the degree of master of science from Albion college. In 1895 he became a member of the American association of science, and took a post -graduate course in sociology and psychology in Boston university, atter which he did work in the New Testament history seminary. After completing his college work, Ile served two years in the Shawmut church, Boston. he •is the author of the book entitled "Scientific basis of the. Sabbath aM Sunday.” Rev. Dr. Floody's contention was that the bad boy is a myth. IIe of- ten stated all the bad boy wants, in order to be a good boy, is a kindly interest in his welfare, together with a little industry that will absorb his excess energy. The garden cities, as established by Rev, Dr. Floody, consisted of plots 10 feet by' 18, arranged like a city, with streets On two sides. of each garden. The little folks pay 10 cents for each lot, do all Use work and own all of the garden products they raise. Under Rev, Dr. Fleetly's leadership and organization, • each garden city has' a mayor, city councilof seven members., garden commissioner, street commissioner, tool commissioner, water commiesioner, animal commis- sioner and others in addition to 40 police officers. Under the personal rubors of Rev. Dr. Floody, garden cities were organ - "zed at the Island garden city, Deav- er garden city, Quinsigamond garden city, Meadows garden city, Green frill garden city, Lake -view garden city and others. • Rev.
