OUT OF ARMY INTO GOOD JOB

SON OF PROMINENT RENSSELAER ATTORNEY IS MAKING GOOD. Edward P. Honan received a letter from his son Thursday night. The virile young man writes, “Do not address me as sergeant any more, as I am now just a plain citizen.” The father in answering will undoubtedly address his son- as “Mr. Honan.” Edward, Jr., has been discharged from Camp Funston and is now with a large independent oil refining company in Kansas. He is ■in the chemical department, and the vafue of his service to the company at the start was fixed at f 125 per month. Wq rejoice with Mr. and . Mrs. Honan in the disposition of their son to get busy immediately upon his release from the army and to exhibit in the realm of peace that high quality of citizenship which was so evident in-the conduct and character of the American soldier. The character of young men like Edward Honan, Jr., are the best proof that the Bolsheviki, I. W. W. nor any other lawless gang can destroy that high ideal for Which this government now stands and for which it has ever been ready to fight.
