You Are Never Licked I ntil You
Quit Fighting and Smile
"To be patient is not always easy,
To be cheerful is much harder still;
But at least we can always be pleasant,
If we make up our mind • that, ill.
And it pays every time to look kind!;
Altho you feel worried and blue
If you smile at the world and he chi r rfnl,
The world will smile back at you
So try and brace up and look plea
No matter how low you are down;
Good humor is always contagious,
But you banish your friends when you frown.
