ARMY DISCHARGE FOR KELLY
Sergeant in Battery B. Purchases
Release From the Service.

James H. Kelly. sergesnt-instructor OF
Battery B, received his discharge from
the army by purchase yesterday after
noon.
Kelly has been with the Missouri Ma
tional Guard for about fifteen months.
during which time he has served with
Battery A Of St. Louis and Battery Of
Columbia.
About a month ago charges we're filed
against him asking for his removal from
the state. However, it appears that the
charges were Of personal rather than Of
military nature and, accordingly, he
was permitted to purchase his discharge
despite the charges.
Officers under whom Sergeant Kelly
has served since coming to Columbia say
that his services have been satisfactory.
Sergeant Kelly has served about eigh-
teen wears in the army as an enlisted
man. During the World War he was an
officer and attained the rank Of Captain
of Field Artillery, but after the emer-
gency he was discharged and subsequent
" re-enlisted.
