He ayes have it." So says the Chair- man of a commit- tee meeting when a question has been happily settled. And when a woman sits critically before her mirror asking her face where her greatest fascination lies, the answer is the same, only we spell it differently-"The eyes have it."
Your eyes are the mirrors. of your personality. Through them you express Joy and sorrow, love, Life, laughter, romance and happi- ness. We should therefore plan to make our eyes, as beautiful as possible.
