Judge, the great national week
ly. has suggested February 5 to IL
as national smile week. Governor
McMaster has endorsed their pro-
gram and says Every smile is a
smile worth while. We can't have
too many of them" This certainly
is cheerful proposition if nothing
else, and just now good cheer is
about as much needed as anything
else. This may go a long ways to-
ward smashing business depress-
sion and general downheartedness.
A smile costs but little effort and
does much god.
