Barnett as coxs wain of a tank lighter In the am- Shlblous assault at Salerno, Italy, ept. 910, 1943. When the boat officer of his craft was seriously woundod during an extremely Eerilous run to the beach In the ice of intense enemy artillery fire, Whitehead unhesitatingly as sumed the responsible duties and, with complete disregard for his own personal safety, skillfully piloted the boat to the assigned landing point and effected the successful, expeditious unloading of the vital cargo. His essential task completed, he later volun teered to serve as coxswain of a tank landing craft which had lost many of its crew. Whitehead's in spiring initiative and valiant de votion to duty throughout these hazardous operations contributed materially to the success of the assault and were in keeping with the highest traditions of the Unit ed States naval service."

The Japanese treated Filipinos fairly well and tried to win their cooperation, the lieutenant re ports, but "the Filipinos are not ignorant so the Japs didn't do so well." " Schools were furnished for children, but the youngsters were taught only pf the glories of Ja pan, t lie "New Order" and "what skunks the Americans were." They were taught to speak Japa nese, but were not taught to write Ihe language.

EDWARDS Consciously or unconscious ly, each of us magnifies some thing, and the thing we magnify reveals our charac ter. One magnifies sell, an other enlarges on his pre judices, while a third exalts his possessions. Each per son who does this lives below the high standard of a true Christian. Paul found many things in which he might glory, but he declared to the i Phllippian church that what ever else happened, he would magnify Christ. To magnify Christ may demand sacrifice, of every Christian. For us to magnify Christ today means to show others some thing of His divine nature which means to bring Him closer to suffering humanity. As we magnify Chi'ist, we make is possible for those arbunc. us to know, under stand and apprecia'e Him more fully. To magnify Christ may demand sanifice, It may require readjustments in our ways of living, but it is well worth the cost. We most fully live when we mag nify Christ. We are epistles lead T)f hien, and conscious ly or unconsciously we re veal out relationships with Him. Amen. and grandaughter, Margaret Ellen.
