Brown Announces 'Smile Week' Here’s a date you can face with a smile. National Smile Week has been scheduled for Mar. 6-11, the theory being that anyone CAN smile—but too few do! Joe E. Brown, generally acknow ledged as proprietor of America’s broadest smile, is the booster and guiding light of the campaign. “The idea is simple,’’ says Joe. “It is just a week in which every body. is asked to concentrate on smiling and making someone else smile. “Be a Joy Scout! “Try bringing a smile of happi ness each day to Someone who is weary, who is troubled, who is ill, or feels forgotten.’’ Brown, top ranking among the world’s dispensers of happiness, can speak wi£h authority about the power of a smile. During the war, Joe’s grin brought relief from pain and nostalgia to thousands of serv icemen all over the world. He seri ously backs this special week out of a conviction that smiling is good for the people who do it, and for the people who see it. So—Mar. 6 through Mar. 11— the order of every day will be to Smile! At the traffic cop, the landlord, the howling children, the clerks and conductors, AND—with nine days leeway —even at the Income Tax Collector! It might, praise be! become a na tional habit.
