CHARLES G. WOEHLER
Charles G. Woehler, secretary and treasurer of the Hudson Company, was born in
Minneapolis, on the 5th of December, 1891, a son of Gustave E. and Abbie A.
(Sholes) Woehler, extended mention of whom is made on another page of this work.
The public schools of this city afforded Charles G. Woehler his early
educational training and in due time he enrolled in the University of Minnesota,
in the engineering department. He made his initial step into the business world
in the trust department of the Minnesota Loan & Trust Company, a connection he
maintained six years. He then became associated with the Lincoln Trust & Savings
Bank for six months, and during his association with that institution organized
the new business department His business career was interrupted by the entrance
of the United States into the World war, when he entered the Naval Reserve
Corps, on the 21st of December, 1917, as chief yeoman, and was stationed at
Cardiff, Wales, as purchasing agent for Base 29. He was released from active
duty on the 28th of July, 1919, and received his honorable discharge on the 21st
of December, 1921. In January, 1922, he became associated with the Hudson
Company, Incorporated, which company succeeded the Hudson Publishing Company,
and the T. B. Automobile Route Book Co. of Kansas City, Missouri, and he was
made secretary and treasurer. He has proved to be the right man for the place
and the efficiency with which he discharges all duties devolving upon him has
won him confidence and respect.
Since attaining his majority Mr. Woehler has been a strict adherent of the
repub­lican party and the principles for which it stands. His religious faith is
that of the Lutheran church and fraternally he is a Scottish Rite Mason, having
received all degrees up to and including the thirty-second, and holding charter
membership In University Lodge. He is identified with the Minneapolis Athletic
Club, the Auto Club and the Aero Club, and he is a member of Phi Sigma Kappa
fraternity. For recreation he turns to golf, in which sport he is proficient,
and he spends a great deal of his spare time in reading, keeping well informed
on all the important questions and issues of the day.
