THE BAD DAYS.

THE BAD DAYS.
&c, now and then there comes along
A day when everything goes wrong,
L seems 70 be the fate Of man,
Although he does the best he can.
= meet from time 20 time a day
When all his plans will go astra-;
Ee may have rested we'll at night
&c has his hearty appetite,
HIS body feels no touch of pain,
Hes keen Of eye and quick Of brain
o. so he thinks himself TO be-
And ye, his work is poor to SEQ.
HIS fingers tumble all they touch,
Els hands will not accomplish much.
He makes mistakes which are alb
supd.
Aisunderstands the spoken word.
And though he diligently tolls,
Whate'er re tries to do he spoile-
From dawn urtn the day is gone
His troubles pie up one by one.
4 constantly before lis eyes
New difficulties eeem TO rise
Nor skill nor strength nor all hi.
pluck
Can save him from his sorry luck.
On such a day. and to US ALL.
It seems that such a day must fall;
In vain it il to fret or curse
Bad conduct makes bad matter,
worse;
Go take the losses and the cares.
Let failure strike you unawares
And miss the goal you ought to win
But meet your troubles with a grin:
Laugh at the plans which go astray-
You cannot help them anyway
Bad days depart Just like the rest
And no mans always at his best.

foreign relations reads:

to do that early next year, the con-
sumner expects to pay more.
Apples are high and scarce, the
controlled price being 10 cents a
pound. 1t is expected, however. that
the fine crop here in England will
serve to reduce this price materially
before the winter comes.
Bakers and the government expect
an increase in the cost Of bread. There
are abundant wheat supplies in Aus
tralia and the Argentine. but the scar
city of shipping makes immediate de-
livery impossible. So England must
depend on the United States and Can
ada which, the authorities say, means
costlier loaves.

men can do little work with small

the railroad for not putting up plat

Practically all of the boys from
Summerton who were called to the

war and those who saw service on the
foreign fields of France have return
cd. All towns and cities have had
homecoming celebrations, to welcome
tho boVs home again and this should
be mighty glad occasion, something
to offset the bitter feeling of having
TO part with them once, perhaps not
knowing for sure their return safe.
What about celebration of this kind
for the boys of Summerton? They
will appreciate it. We have had one
or two small occasions where some
were present but as all have practi-
cally returned, now would be the pro-
per time to. have this great occasion
and celebration with plenty to eat and

be glad for you to show them that
you appreciate what they did for YOU

TURNS AGAINST SOVIET
Former Hungarian Premier; Then
Takes His Own Life.

Geneva. July 29.-(By the Associat-
ed Press. )-Alexander Girbain, presi-
dent of the Hungarian Soviet govern
,nent, killed himself in the assembly
building at Budapest after delivering
speech against the soviet and the
communist supporters and accusing
Bella Kun the soviet leader and min
lister of foreign affairs, of leading the
nation to ruin, according to the Mum
ich Nachrtem.
According to the Munich Nachrich-
ten, M. Galbai until recently was : =
puted to be one of the strongest SUP
porters Of the soviet government, but
lately he is said to have opposed Bella
Kun. He was quoted us saying he
realized the futility of the govern
ment's course and its dangers to the
country.
Alexander Garbai was appointed pre-
mler in the reconstructed Hungarian
cabinet early in April. Bella Kun,
who was made minister of foreign af
fairs and minister of war, quickly be-
came recognized as the leader of the
communist faction.

Mr.. Branch said that greater at
