ENGLISH PROVERB
'Tis easy enough to be pleasant,
When life flows along like a song;
But the man worth while is the one who will smile
When everything goes dead wrong;
For the test of the heart is trouble,
And it always comes with the years,
But the smile that is worth the praise of earth
Is the smile that comes through tears.

Powder your face with sunshine, put on a great big smile
Make up your eyes with laughter
Folks will be laughing with you, in a little while
Whistle a tune of gladness, blue never was in style
The future's brighter when hearts are lighter
So smile, smile, smile

A smile is worth its face value.
AMERICAN PROVERB
We human beings are very proud of being the only animals that can smile. And yet we don't show a very proper appreciation of our gift. Though we may realize its magical qualities, we often fail at the critical moment to use them. For example, we may know that when we have to choose between smiling and frowning the consequences will greatly affect our own peace of mind. If we frown we shall be further involved in trouble. If we smile we may obviate the trouble.
