Charlie Chaplin is a great comic for his native land Britain, but even more so for the world. On the
stage he often wore tiny moustaches, huge pants and tailcoats that were perhaps more characteristic of
Europeans and may be not much of the British. Since more than half of the roles Chaplin played were
in silent films, people throughout the world had no difficulty understanding his films. With sound
movies, Chaplin created a nonsense language that sounded like no known nationality and was accepted
and appreciated by people all over the world. For most of his lifetime he did not stay in his mother
country; he traveled througho

ut the world to appear on stage for people of different nationalities.

Compare the new welfare system with the old one and you would find a world of difference between
the two. Under the new welfare system, the law encourages welfare clients to work on their own for a
gradual shift away from welfare, and this is not the case in the past. Welfare clients now can develop
their talents to make money. In the past, they often cheated to bleed the system for a few extra dollars.
Now caseworkers will gladly help their clients find appropriate jobs rather than act like detectives to
try to seek out any unreported properties. Today many welfare clients have made a choice to live a life
of complete honesty and they tell the truth to caseworkers and declare any extra income they make.
In cases like this, caseworkers will feel greatly relieved because they don't need to search for any
cheating as in the past.

Sticking to high moral standards is easier said than done. Once, a young British car sales manager
who had just finished courses on business ethics was sent to sell cars to an African country. The
negotiations had been going on

for months without any real results．He was at his wits' end. Finallyxhe
hit upon a solution．One day he bought a popular novel and slipped a check of #20,000 in the book.
Then he presented it to the minister in charge of transportation. This minister examined its contents，
pretending he didn’t see the check at all．Then he said with a smile："Young man，I hear London is at
its best in May.”The sales manager, who was quick-witted, replied: "My company in London will be
most honored to welcome your visit！”A short time later, the deal was approved in London！
