FACTS and FIGURES
By FULLER WARREN

is equally true that few great
men laugh. but it must be con-
fessed that all who laugh are not
great. But l would rather trust
my life and liberty in the hands
of a laughing fool than in the
hands of a frowning tyrant.
Nations do not suffer when
their rulers sincerely smile, and
govern with love and mercy. But
God pity the land where ruler
frowns and rules with an iron
rod. and God pity the ruler him
self. for the harvest of his frowns
is death.
The frowns of Caesar made
nations quake, but the harvest of
his frowns was daggers, conceal
ed under the cloakS of Shudder-
ing Romans, until the blood of
Caesar dripped from the blade of
treason in the corridor of the Ro
man capitol.
Napoleon frowned and the
world trembled, but his frowns
were only the prophecies of Wa
terloO. which left the flower of
France lying dead in pools of
blood, while the uncrowned and
unthroned Napoleon wandered
aimlessly on the battlefield. the
'Somnambulist of vast shattered
dream
Where there is no laughter.
there is no genuine love. Where
there IS no love. life is a desert of
evil Laughter and love are the
companions of pleasure. the pa
irons and allies of civilization. the
handmaidens of religion, the
evangelS of God"
