KNIGHTHooD UP TO DATE.

The valorous knights of olden times
Were courteous constant, brave and
true;
They suffered dlscomforts manifold
In search of merciful deeds to do;
And we still have knights on earth today,
Tho in numbers not like the grains
OF sand;
They are the men who cannot sit
In a crowded car while women stand.
The chivalrous knight of long ago
Was pledged to protect all womankind;
His aim in life was to lessen grief
And do all the good deeds he could find;
But we have knight in this day and age
Whose chivalrous spirit should inspire;
He is the man who cannot sleep
While his wife gets up and starts the
fire.
No, the knightly species lie not extinct
There are sundry sparks still kept
aglow,
They have been transmitted from soul
to soul,
Tho pessimists may deny It's so;
Men may as a whole be the weaker sex,
But, tho you may have far TO roam,
You'll find a few men who will not allow
Their wives, to help finance the home.
