Taft pointed out that. Admiral

final assault will be primarily a
land operation. But he said he un.

FOR, GRACE TO DIE

may have the grace to die. Take
away from us, o Father, whose
plans for Thy children lnclude

for a cause that is linked with Thy
Kingdom and with Thy holy pur-

hourly conscious that we are more
than mortal bodies; that we are
immortal spirits, destined to eter-

but in the glad consciousness that
our times are in Thy hand may
we do life's duties serenely, be-
cause Thou hast taken from us
all fear of death. Thus would we
be good soldiers Of our Captain
Jesus Christ, who had no fear 10
