NOT REACHED GOAL OF
STRUGGLE SAYS BAlF0UR

London Nov. l3.--''We have not
yet reached the final goal of the
struggle" said Foreign Minister Bal
four in a speech before group of

"Perils are still ahead of the attain

have finished their work forever, but
their sacrifices will be in vain II the

FAIR VIRGINIA GIRLS
WELCOME THIS SONG
QUAINT BALLAD CALLED ITS
NEVER TOO LATE TO BE
SORRY"

A new song has Just appeared which
bids fair to rival many OF the modern
love tales. II is called: It's Never Too
Late To Be Sorry and Is tribute to
woman's loyalty and her fidelity for
the man she has chosen. Some OF the
lines of the song are quite poetical.
One verse runs:
Il watched a sweet rose droop and die
For want of rain. and wondered why
The rain drops when at last they came
Could not restore it's bloom again.
You're like the rose, I'm like the E2tn.
You wanted me and called in vain"
And then follows the music, which
seems to be really catchy:
