AS EASY TO SMILE AS TO FRowN.
When life has notion OF treating us wrong,
Or we fancy, at least, this is SO;
When we notice the discord that sounds in its
song,
And hear it wherever we go,
Why. then, there's maxim that we may
apply
And by it our troubles may drown;
It's as easy to laugh.as to weep or to sigh,
And as easy to smile as to frown.
If the day has a way of weeping a bit,
What matter what matter to you?
Tomorrow the specter of tempest will fit,
The skies will be CHEEKY and blue;
So, though the world.move in devious way,
Look urwardIardlonward, not down.
For Care writes his record in wrinkles and
gray
It's as easy to smileIas to frown.

Matt. XVI. Il; Rom. viii, 81
The saddest story to be found on the
pages of human history is the one
/. contained in the reference selected
from the third chapter of Genesis-the
fall of the first man and woman into

/ had been created in the image of God.
He was like God in that he was per

: was a perfect being, like God, and as
: result God walked with him and
: talked with him in the garden of Eden,
his home But. though perfect, man
was not immune from temptation and
q sin. To prove his worth it was neces-
3 sary for him to be subjected to temp
tation. In the wisdom of God this
must have been wise and even good
q or else God would have willed it other
wise And yet the greatest problem in
human life is the coming of sin into
