ON FRIENDsHI

Friendship is never established
as an understood relation. It Is a
miracle which requires constant
proofs. 1t is an exercise OF the
purest imagination and the rare
est faith.
BY friendship we mean the
greatest love, and the greatest
usefulness, and the most open
communication, and the noblest
sufferings, and the most exem-
plary faithfulness, and the Sc
verest truth, and the heartiest
counsel, and the greatest union OF
mind, of which brave men and
women are capable.
FRIENDSHIP, is the nearest thing
we know to religion. God is love
and to make religion akin to
friendship is simply to give 1t the
highest expression conceivable by
man.
Our actual friends are but dis
tant relations to those to whom
we are pledged. We never ex-
change more than three words
with a friend in our lives on that
level to which our thoughts and
feeling almost habitually rise.
A friend is that one who can
associate with our choicest
thought. We always assign to him
a nobler employment in our alb
sence than we ever find him en-
gagged in; and we imagine that
the hours which he devoteS to us
were snatched from a higher So
ciety.
AS Cicero once said: Friend
ship improves happiness and
abates misery, by doubling our
Joy and dividing our grief"
Friends are an aid to the young,
to guard them from error; to the
elderly, to attend to their wants,
and to supplement their failing
power of action; to those in the
prime of life, to assist them to
noble deeds.
Honest men esteem and value
nothing so much in this world as
a real friend. Such a one is as Il
were another self, to whom we
impart our most secret thoughts
who partakes of our joy, and
comforts us in our affliction; ado
to this, that his company is ar
everlasting pleasure to us.

1855.
In these articles, 1 have frequently
mentioned are 65 as the earliest age
at which a person can qualify for old
age payments. This has been true
since the beginning of social security
insurance payments. 1t still holds for
men. The recent amendments, how
ever, provide for the payment of
benefits to women beginning at age
81. In my next article shall explain
how women-retired insured workers
and wives and widows or mothers of
retired or deceased insured workers
can start getting benefit payments

through the second quarter of 1857

not then be insured for retirement
benefits, as he would not yet be 65,
but if he should die at that time, sur
vivors' payments could be made to
certain of his dependents, as he
would have met the minimum re-

Ordinarily, benefit amounts are
based on persons average earn

ment covered by the law after 1850.
If all the time elapsing after 1850
were used in figuring this average,
self employed professionals newly
brought under social security would
have five years in which these earn
lngs were not covered and would
count against them. The amended
law permits the dropping of these
five years.

any other person whose work was
first covered by social security this
year, will not have his average earn
