PAQC Five Mrs. mison Sure Is Proud of Her Soldier Brother 1 Camden Womsm Learns About No. 1 Patriot of Century Division. Sirs. Hubert Wilson. Hampton St is hiighty proud of her brother. Pfc. Edward J. Arthur. form^^'ldSUtiv expon- tlve aud mayor of" Union. And she has reason to be. For Pfc. Arthur, 50“ years of age. is the Century iMvlalon's nominee for Patriot No. I, on the western front. This 5n.year-old aoTdler left ’IT mighty nice home” two years ago to enlist in the Army. Not content in a rear-echelon job. he appealed to be assignee! to a combat outfit and was sent to the Century Division’s Quart ermaster company. He is the father of four children. “But my family Is well tgken ogre of, and I wanted to get Into the service and help out.” he says, “so I enlisted.” Arthur has thr^e brothers who are full colonels on active service. He wak him.self a commissioned officer in the National (^uard for 12 years— but he says he woiiJdn’t change his present status for anything. “Bars and stripes carrj- too much responsibility,” is his Idea. The ex-mayor, bank( r and auto deal er is In his second war. In World War 1 he was a machine-gunner in the Fifth Regiment of the 2nd Marine Division and fought at Champagne, In the Argonne and at St. Mihiel. “W’hen I returned from the last war In 19.19, I vowed that I’d never allow any son of mine to get Into the serv- ice. I said then that I’d shoot him In Ihe foot first.” In a change of view, however, Arthur enlisted In the National Guard several years later, and by 1936 had served two years as a master sergeant and 12 years as a commissioned offi cer. During his civilian career /In Union, he served variously as com mander of the American Legion post (1930), as vice president of the Arthur B4Mc, of which he and his three broth, •rs are part owners, and as head of an automobile concern. Although training in this war came a little tough, Arthur says he under went the hikes with full field pack at’Fort Scrlven, Ga., and Camp Sutton, N. C., without too much trouble.
