THE THINGS WE LEAVE UN'
DONE.

1t isn't the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing YOU leave undone,
That gives you a bit of the heart
ache
At the setting of the sun.
The tender work forgotten;
The letter you did not write;
The flower you did not send, dear,
Are your haunting ghosts at night.
The stone you might have lifted
Out of a mothers way;
The bit of heartsome counsel
You were hurried too much to say.
The loving touch of the hand, dear,
The gentle, winning tones,
Which you had no time nor thought
for
With troubles enough of your own.
Those little acts of kindness
SO easily out of mind.
Those chances to be angels
Which we poor mortals find
They come in night and silence,
Each sad, reproachful wrath,
And hope is faint and tagging,
And a chill has fallen on faith.
For life is all too short, dear,
And sorrow is all too great,
To suffer our slow compassion
That tarries until too late;
And, it isn't the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone,
Which gives you bit of heartache
At the setting of the sun.
BY Margaret Sangster.

LIEUT. BURNS
GIVES TALK TO
Hi SCHOOL

Lieut.. Bryan D. Burns addressed
the pupils of the sixth and ceventh
grades and the high school,, Wednes-
day morning. Mr.. Burns Is one of
the youngest ieutenants in the army.
He is the son of Mr3. ]. c. Burns, of
Covington, a woman who has labor
ed necessarily for every good cause
before our community. and has been
especially diligent in helping Ameri-
ca win the war. She is proud of
her son, as il every citizen OF st.
T mmmany, for his patriotism.
Mr.. Burns told many interesting
things about camp l.fe, and he took
special pains to d;sabuse the mind OF
the public Of any rumor that the boys
were not we'll cared for in camp. He
said that of the 1900 men in Camp
Funston, in Texas, 1900 made good.
One-third failed at Camp Logan
Root, Ark. That 80 per cent of the
men in camp were over 25 years of
age, and that among them we're ex-
I'm ted States Senators and Congress-
men.
He said that the men we're fed and
cared for better than 80 per cent Of
the men at home, and that the dis
cip-ine and training. they got was
worth great deal to them, physical
ly and mentally. He told the pupt-s
that when he was one of them at
school he did not appreciate the
value of the discipline Of the school,
but he learned it's value in the army.
His tax was very much enjoyed
by the school. Lieut.. Burns Will
leave shortly to report for duty.

Every Available Building
Being Used as Hospit-

One of the most horrible disasters
ever chronicled In history occurred
at Halifax, Nova Scotia, December Z.
1t is estimated that four or five thou
sand were killed and wounded, prob
ably 1000 killed. Many bodies are
still to be recovered. The most har-
rowing details are published Of the
suffering Of the people. The accl-
dent was caused by the Iona, q Nor
wegian ship loaded with relief sup
plies for Belgium, crushing into the
Mont Blanc, a Frnech ship loaded
with war munitions and benzine.
There was a heavy fog and there
seemed to be some irregulardty as to
the whistle soundings. When the
crash came 1t was seen that the ben
zine was let loose and would soon
reach the engine room. There was
little time to do anything. All were
ordered into boats and made their
escape as best they could. The ex-
plosion that followed shattered or
burned everything within square OF
two and q half niles. People and
houses were blown to atoms. Fires
broke ont In all directions and. .
reign Of terror followed. People be-
came erased. Many school children
walked about blinded by glass blown
in their eyes. One woman was found
walking about holding the head OF
one child by the hair In one hand and
leading another by the hand, her
mind q blank. Two babies were tax
en- from the arms OF another. She
did not know they were dead. Con-
ditions are inde7crtba bly, horrible.
On top Of this came the blizzard,
with three feet Of snow, adding to
the dihiiculties Of the relief squads.
All vehicles were commandeered and
rich and poor worked together In the
