FRIENDSHIP fBest Esmyj Friendship is a world problem, or perhaps it would be better to say the lack of friendship is a world problem. The only way it is possible to achieve the goal of all mankind PEACE is to obtain universal friendship. Before global friendship can even be hoped for, we must first of all learn to live happily with our neighbors. It is easy to talk about friendship, but quite a different matter to do something about it. In order to achieve world friendship, it seems the best place to start is with little types of bickering. If everyone in the world should decide to change every enemy into a friend, through personal acts of friendship, it would be a small matter to obtain world friendship. As of right now the chances of a third World War in the near future are certainly great. The only way the problems between the United States and her enemies, who need no mentioning, can be overcome, is through the peace organization, the United Nations. The object of the United Nations is to get all countries to live together in peace, to depend upon each other for vital necessities, and to lift the iron curtain which now cuts off parts of the world from each other. This can only be if first we learn to live in friendly atmosphere within our own towns and cities. That is the first step toward world friendship. GORDON NIXON Yreka High School FRIENDSHIP QSecond Place Ermyj First of all, what is friendship? Friendship is a state of being friends, a respect for others, an affection arising from mutual esteem and good will. There can not be friendship without confidence. Second, where is friendship found? Friendship can be found only in the hearts of those who want to have friends and be happy. You see little boys and girls outside making mud pies together or at a park, ioo, and many other places. Maybe they don't even know each other, but they don't care, it's someone to play with and soon they become great friends. ' At home if you are taking care of your little brother or sister, or at a neighbors taking care of their children you gradually win their confidence, and when they get hurt they come running to you ,for help. Why? Because they trust and have confidence in you. If you say, Oh, don't bother me, or something of the sort, that friendship is broken. I think friendship is the best thing a person can have or gain. SHARON MYERS, '52 Butte Valley High School. 25
