A letter from Lieut.. T. c. Madden
to his wife states that he has been
detached to the recruiting service Of
the division stationed at Camp Funs-
ton and will be sent to Missouri and
Kansas to carry on this work. He
had been hoping that he would re-
ceive his discharge some time soon,
but from the present outlook it would
appear that there is little hope for
that until about September 30th,
when according 10 tho present rule
of the war department every officer
In the reserve will have to be dis
charged from active service. Toms
many friends in Brookings sincerely
hope that he may be liberated soon,
so that he may return to the prac-
tice of law and attend to his own
affairs. He has given what would
seem to be enough of his time to
! the service of his country.
