There were so man ythings to

they flew past cities, river and
fields, that Tad was very tired by

Good Humor Just a Good Habit

when you're more disposed to
|frown, you have loosened the fet-@
tiers which bind you to your bad
habit.
1 know it's osmetimes hard to
do these things, for there are days
for all of us wheen we feel that
we just CAN'T smile.
Into each life some rain must fall
Some days must be dark and
dreary."
However, each time we DO
smile when a frown would more
nearly express the state of mind
and heart, we are just that much
nearer victory.
| When the victory is won. our
hearts are infinitely lighter and
our burdens are less. We are bet
ter fitted to meet the days tasks
when we are cheerful, and all
those with whom we come into
contact are helped by that cheer
'fulness-for the smile always
