The Friends Of Youth.

This is one reason why the MAX
ing of new friends Is so much easier
in youth than later on: Friendship
comes to youth seemingly without any
conditions and without any fears.
There is no past to look at. with
much regret and much sorrow. We
never look behind us until we miss
something. Youth is satisfied with the
joy Of present possession. To the
young friendship comes as the glory
of spring, a very miracle of beauty,
a mystery of birth; to the old it has
the bloom of autumn, beautiful still,
but with the beauty of decay. To the
young it is chiefly hope; to the old it
is mostly memory. The man who is
conscious that he has lost the best of
his friends, naturally lives a good
deal in the past.-Hugh Black.
