laugh heartily is a sign not alone that

capacity to laugh is much more than a
capacity to see the funny side of

People who take themselves too seri-

who are too overwhelmed by existence
cannot laugh naturally. To laugh is
not to be callous, it is to be balanced.
And true laughter, being the expres

Value of Courtesy
Courtesy is the one medium of ex-

by the people of every country on the
globe. Courtesy radiates a spirit of
good feeling and suggests that we are
not working entirely for the material
returns of work, but for the friendly
human associations as well. Life is
not too short, and we are never too
busy to be courteous,
Courtesy is the outward expression
and an inward consideration for oth-
ers is always an effective lubricant
that smoothes business and social re-
lationships, eliminating friction.—Phil-
adelphia Public Ledger.
