Let: Us Smile
The thing that goes the farthest
Towards making life worth while,
That costs the least and does the

most,
Is just a pleasant smile.
The smile that bubbles from heart
That loves it's fellow men
Will drive away the cloud of gloom
And coax the sun again.
It's full Of worth and goodness, too,
With manly kindness blent;
It's worth a million dollars,
And it doen't cost a cent.
