Is the Bicycle Bringing Back the Age Of
ChivaIry2


Il the Bicycle Bringing Back the Age OF
ChivaIry2
There is certainly something in the
habitual riding of a bicycle that cult
Yates among men the fine spirit Of gen
erosity, helpfulness. kindliness. as weu
as of chivalrousness toward women.
Does an accident occur to a wheel or
wheelman on the road? Instantly half
dozen friends are at the spot to aid, al
though they never saw the man or he
them before. / have been particularly
impressed with the courtesy Of wheel
men, perfect strangers, to wheelwOmen.
The attention is never obtrusive, like
that of the leering idiot who elbows wo-
men in street car, but il prompted by
frank kindliness and sense Of comrS5e-
ship. My observation goes to show that
men who are themselves fond Of cycling
have a real respect for women; that
they will do anything to aid them and
forward their comfort and pleasures on
the road. One Sunday morning lately
three women were riding III the conn
try when, suddenly descending a slip
not so bad fall, but it twisted her
handle bars around galley west, 50 to
speak. In a twiri ling two young gentle
men were ON the scene, entire strangers
to her and all her party. They helped TO
pick up the remains, and one of them
whipped out a wrench and had the han
die bar Strengthened in no time When
L.. ~. L.
ed their caps and were off before they
could be even thanked III due form. 1t
does seem as If the bicycle, among its
other numerous and mighty blessings,
is bringing back the age Of chivalry. In
that golden age, according to the chroni
clers, gallant men went up and down
the earth, ever keeping an eye out TO
aid forlorn women who were in distress
or needed assistance Having given the
aid, these blessed knights of the olden
time went their way, with 10 ulteriOr
thought of pursuing the acquaintance
thus accidentally made or Of taking ad
vantage Of it in way that might be
unpleasant 70 womankind, high OF low.
If any class Of men now living deserve
to be hkened 10 these gentlemen of old,
it is the American wheelmen. So say
women.
