THE HUMOROUS SIDE.

The humorous side is always good.
No other should appeal. A sense of
humor smooths the way and helps us
with our spiel. You can't succeed and
be crouch. l care not what your
game, and he that's always out of
sorts, has but himself to blame. A
joke, a smile, hearty laugh, will
throw you into gear, and kill the pes
simistic bug and down the phantom
fear. So put it over with a joke.
Don't see the other side. Cut fret and
worry with a laugh, and you will turr
the tide. The anxious man is not the
one to whom you pin your hopes. He
shadow boxes till all in, then floun-
ders on the ropes. He's always 60
ing some, and yet he don't seem to
arrive. His poise is out of killer, and
he don't know he's alive. He hits at
all the wide ones, he has lost his
batting eye, nobody home and no one
cares for any such guy. Just cult
vate sense of fun, you'll find it
worth your while, the world reflects
the sunshine, and will reproduce your
smile. If you should find that you are
shy on sense of humor dope, just play
you have it, learn to laugh; it is your
only hope. The man who laughs is
welcome thrice, for him we have a
place. But let the Crouch grow whis-
hide his face. ">H J..>1kA.
