Value of CheerfuIness

Cheerfulness is one of the most val.
liable assets that girl can possess.
For 1t will make friends. will hold
them, and, best of all. it will inspire
the individual with courage during diff.
ficult experiences that she might fail
in did she not buoy herself up with
an outward pretense Of happiness.
The cheerful girl is distinct addition
in any group. She need rot be witty
nor constantly talking. If she has Sc.
renity and happiness In her disposi.
ton, for she gives II out as uncon.
sciously as the sun sheds its ravs. and
1t Is sufficient. In point Of fact. peo.
pie are like plants: they turn to the
light Of happiness and from the shad
ow of discomfort
To tell the truth. no persons life ia
entirely free from perplexities of
some kind Everyone has his own
troubles; and to forget them ia a
component part OF happiness Each
individual has far roo many woes to
wish to hear those OF others If we
did not have trouble we should not
have happiness; If life were all one
round of pleasure. then we should
know nothing of the real meaning of
happiness II would BE- as dull as q
