Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 5 Oliver R. Whitley (Rule No. 6 - Don´t Take Yourself Too Seriously, page 6) is a fairly regular contributor to our pages. This article, we think, is tops for our readers, and you men still in the line of duty and you who have returned to the good old U. S. A. will benefit by reading it. But you will appreciate it even more when you know a little of the background for the author´s philosophy. He hasn´t had everything "rosey" since his return from the service. He´s been in the hospital for many months, and at the time of writing is undergoing major surgery "in the form of thoracoplasty, which means the removal of several ribs... This operation," he writes, "should speed my recovery greatly, and make it possible for me to return to Yale next fall." Ch. Rupert L. McCanon (In a VA Hospital, page 23) is a chaplain in the Veterans Administration Hospital at Excelsior Springs, Missouri, and is an enthusiastic booster for Link and the SMCL. Chaplain McCanon has organized a League unit among the patients, and a lively program of events is the order of the week. For more details see photographs and text as mentioned above. Lee Edwin Walker (Thinking of Marriage, page 24) was attached to the 11th Airborn Division, from its activation throughout the entire war, as a paratroop chaplain. He saw action in New Guinea, Leyte, Mindora, Luzon and Japan in eighteen months of overseas´ service, and was awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart medals. His experience in counselling service men with regard to their life problems has given him wisdom and understanding. With this issue of Link we present the lead article in the series on courtship and marriage. Dr. Raymond L. Edie, editor of The United Presbyterian, kindly offered to share this series with you service men. As you read "What a Girl Admires in a Young Man" and "What a Man Admires Most in a Girl" we know you will look forward to next month´s presentation of "The Meaning of the Engagement." Mr. Walker, since his discharge from the service, has returned to Somonauk, Ill., as pastor of the Presbyterian Church. Helen B. Cook (Lincoln at Gettysburg, page 29) is the Civilian Circulation Manager of The Link. History is a "natural" with her, as you would find out if you had the privilege of striking up a conversation with her on things historical. She has a way of giving color and perspective to her subject. In private life Mrs. Cook is the mother of 18-month-old Ruth Angela; her husband saw service overseas during the war. R. W. Spicer, John L. Payne and Eleanor R. Collier (Tailor-made Education for the Veteran, page 30) are the directors of the Public Relation Departments of Yankton College, Davidson College and Boston University, respectively. In the January issue of Link we presented information on Marietta College in Ohio and Austin College in Sherman, Texas. Next month we plan to continue this informative series on church-related schools. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
