Will Start On Journey To War Zone Tuesday.

Verne Davisson, son of Harvey Davisson, and Samuel Duvall, son of John Duvall, will leave Rensselaer Tuesday morning for New York City, from where' they will leave on the U. S. Steamship Chicago on next Saturday. „ . .. Davisson and Duvall will be in th» service of the United States as ambulance drivers on the French battlefields. With the entrance of these two young men Rensselaer will be well represented in the war. Fred Hamilton has been in France for over a year and Alfred Thompson sailed last month. Harry Hickman and Earl Hemphill have touched shores of Europe within the last few months. Probably no city the size of Rensselaer in the state can boast of having six young men at present actively engaged in fighting the Germans., Mr. Davisson, before leaving, disposed of his interest in the College Inn to his partner, William Waymire.
