That was several days age and so far we have hsd no opportun- ity to exercise our powers of detee- years who are always engaged in violent friendships never seem to get aliead. You make friendo. but you lose them. Indeed your idea seems to be on mak- ing a new friend to break with the old ones. There is no accumulation of friendships. No matter how much money a man may earn, he will nevei be rich if he spends it as fast as h^ makes it. Likewi.e, no matter how many friends you acquire, you will not be rich in fric::ds if you drop an old friend as soon 3.< you make a new one. Accumulating friends is fai more importar.t to happiness than ac- cumulating money. What sort ot start are you making? â€" Forest Stand- ard. St.Mary's Anglican Church MAXWELL Rector. Rev. Maurice F.
