We foret the pain of striving
When sue ,ess has come our way;
We forget thdoruise Of batte
When we've conquered in the fray
We forget the storm that dashed us,
When the sun begins to shine,
And we're mighty glad we're living
On day that's clear and fine.
There are times we turn to doubling
Days we wonder as we go,
If the end is worth the struggle
And the lauhgter worth the woe.
Then our cares begin TO tighten
As our skies begin to clear
And the sun comes out to greet us
Then we're mighty glad we're here.
There are times when we are children,
There are times with care ahead;
That, like little boys when punished,
We sit wishing we were dead
And we wonder if the future
Holds a joy worth living for
But the care is all forg )tton
When the smiles return on &c more.
Wen forget the present sorrows
When the goals we seek are won;
Wen forget the cares that fretted
When at last the tasks are done: -
In the sunshine of the future
We shall dance and sing and smile
III be glad that we are living
In the glorious afterwhile.

Copenhagen Sept 10.-(Delayedl-
The choice of DR. George Michaelis for
the post of imperial German chancellor,
according TO belated revelations by the
socialist Vorwaerts, of Berlin was due
to hasty decision by Emperor William,
who originally had another candidate
in view and had not even considered
DR. Michaeis until three hours before
his appointment.
The newspaper says that DR.. Won
Bethmann.Hollweg the former chancel-
lor fell because he had been deserted by
all parties except the radicals. 1t adds
that when the emperor instructed the
crown prince TO ascertain whether Dr.
Won Bethmann-Hollweg possessed the
confidence of the reichstag, the crown
prince found that only the radicals clear
ly wished the chancellor's retention, and
that the socialists and conservatives
worked together to overthrow him.
Vorwaerts concludes by saying that
there is no reason to wait for another
invitation to the crown prince to repeat
the act with regard to DR.. Mchaelis.

open up a vast field not only for the
period Of the war but for the years to
follow and prove an object lesson TO

GENTLY blurred and discredited of late

harmful and demoralizing in it's in

WASHINGTON. Sept. 13.-The en-
tire American sugar industry will be
placed under government control Oct.

nounced by the institution of licens-
ing system to include manufacture, re-
filming and imports. The step was de-
cided on with the approval of Presi-
dent Wilson to prevent speculative
prices and TO assure equitable distrib-
ution.
Beet sugar producers already have
accepted a scale Of prices suggested
by the food administration which
means a saving to the, consuming
public of more than $30,000,000 be-
tween now and the first of the year.
Cane sugar refiners have agreed to
import all their requirements through
committee to be named by the food
administration, which will apportion
shipments among them.
Institution of a. licensing system will
prevent boarding and will insure a sta.
bilized price, according to food admin.
istration officials. Within a short time
the food administration will announce
price W, ich wholesale sugar should
be delivered to all the consuming cen
tiers.
