FRIENDSHIP

Friendship has no existence
except upon the higher plane OF
living. Friendship on a basel
level is but a counterfeit, and
bears fruit according to its
kind.
Friendship that will stand
the crucial test is constructive
in the sense that it brings out
the best elements in human
character. 1t builds up the in
dividual; it builds up society;
it builds up Gods kingdom on
earth.
Let these thoughts serve as
high lights to guide my hand,
should ever attempt to
write more at length. Till the
spirit calls me to that larger
effort / shall be found meditat-
ing upon the vitality of the
subject as applied to the af-
fairs of man in any station,
and in every cline.
