Lying

If you catch one of your children lying, don't grab a club and rush at him like an ogre. Be honest with him. TeIl him the truth. Tell him you've told hundreds of them, yourself. Tell him that between truth and lying, truth is the best policy. Tell him you know-you've tried both.

'SA WONDERFUL LIFE

It's great to be an editor, and sit up late at night, And Scratch your woot and shoot the bull, And write, and write, and write.

Ups And Downs

The life of the lumber dealer is all a matter of ups and downs. When he isn't trying to get some new customer to pay something down, he's trying to get some old cus_ tomer to pay something up.

No Saucer

There was a young sculptor named phidias, Whose art was very insidious, A SMILE

(You can sing this to the tune of Auld Lang you want)

. A smile is quite a funny thing. It wrinkles up your face, And when it's gone you cannot find, Its secret hiding place.

But far more wonderful it is, To see what smiles can do, You smile at one, he smiles at you, And so one smile makes two.

He smiled at some one, since you smiled, And then that one smiles too, And he sends smiles around the world. 'Til they come back to you.

"'Whatts yourn?"

"Coffee and rolls, my girl.,'

One of those iron-heavy thick mugs of coffee was pushed over the counter to him. He looked surprised.

"'Where's the saucer?" he asked.

"We don't use no saucers here, see? If we did some low-brow would come pilin' in an' drink out of his'n, an' we'd lose some of our swellest trade, see?,'

Omar And Spring

Come. fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling; The Bird of Time has but a little way

To f,utter-and the Bird is on the Wing.

-F'rom the Rubaiyat.

And since a smile can do great good, By cheering hearts of care, Let's smile and smile and not forget, That smiles go everywhere.

Heart Service

Syne if

Brain service can be bought. Lip service can be hired. Physical service can be contracted for. But heart service is the kind you get when you pay in the coin of apprecia_ tion, kindliness, and consideration of others.

BUDDHA SAID:

Delusions, errors, and lies are like huge, gaudy vessels, the rafters of which are rotten and worm-eaten, and those who embark in them are fated to be shipwrecked.
