"CHIN LIFTERS"

Smile For Today ~

"Of all the excuses there are

By which this old world is accursed

This 'haven't got time' is by far

The poorest, the feeblest, the worst.

A delusion it is, and a snare;

If the habit is yours, you should shake it,

For if you want to do what is offered to you

You'll either find time or you'll make it!"

~ Detroit Free Press

"Chin Lifters" were originally published in pamphlet form in the early 1930's ~ a project initiated by Richardson, Bond & Wright.  Submitted entries ~ "Chin Lifters" ~ were to give a 'lift' to spirits weighted by the anxieties, discouragements and despairs of a great depression."

The above excerpt is one entry in a resulting book, 100 CHIN LETTERS, published in 1954.
