When Benjamin Franklin had fin
ished reading the book of Ruth to a
group Of literary men in Paris, and
on asking their opinion of it, they
were amazed at its freshness and
merit as q classic Real friendship is
expressed by the heroine, Ruth lwhose
name means Mercy. when she refus-
ed TO leave her mother-in-law.
'Intreat me not to leave thee, and
to return from following after thee,
For whittier thou goest, / viii go;
where thou lodgest, | viii lodge: Thy
people shall be my people, aud thy
God my God: Where thou diest, Will
die, and there will / be buried:
The Lord do so 10 me, and more also.
If aught but death part thee and me. -
The strength of their love for each
other lay in the fact Of Naomi's devo-
ton TO the God of Israel, whom Ruth,
because Of her, came TO love.
Henry Clay TrImbeIl, one of the
greatest teachers of the nineteenth cen
tuEy, defines human friendship in the
following true sentences;
Friendship is TO be valued for what
There is in it, not for what can be got
ten out of it. When two people appre-
ciate each other because each has
found the other to have around, they
are not friends, they are simply ac-
quaintanees with q business under
standing. To seek friendship for its
utility is as futile as to seek the end
of a rainbow for It's bag of gold. a
true friend is always useful in the
highest sense; but We should beware
of thinking of our friends as brother
members Of a mutual benefit associa-
Tion. with It's periodical demands and
threats of suspension for non-pay-
ment of dues"
We treat. with too much careless
ness, the true souls, whose friend
ship We should cultivate most. Robert
Browning, prince of poets, flashes
this striking truth before US: Hush
I pray youl That if this friend hap
pen to be God" Surely, he could be
no better Human friends, at best
have their faults. They may prove
| strong, true and noble in most instan-
ees, but there is a friend that stieketh
closer than a brother. I'VE offer
Christ the submission Of our hearts,
and the obedience OF our lives; and
He offers us His abiding presence.
We take Him as our Master; and He
:akes US as His friends" To His dis
eiples He said: Il call you no longer
servants, have called you friends
''Ye are are my friends if We do what
soeyer ! command you" We are in
yited TO observe Lent twelve months
of the year. Obedience in all things
will develop friendship, so true and
intimate that We shall learn the true
secret Of life: to serve Christ, with a
pure heart, feryently."

Mr.. Cooper said that he was con-

that Department is housed in an IN
