Naugatuck, May Ii = Although some believe that chivalry Is dying in the world today, there are en- couraging signs that the code of knigl1thood will live, Edward J. Ke- hoe, member of the Naugatuck High school faculty, said at the annual Communion breakfast of Ojeda Council, Knights of Columbus, at st. Cecelia's hall yesterday. About 75 attended the affair. Close to 100 received Communion in body at the 9 o'clock Mass at St. Francis church.
 MT. Kehoe, John Mccarthy, Rev. F. Dunn, Rev. Albert Taylor and Francis Caulfeld were speakers. William J. Lawlor was toastmaster. If chivalry is dying, 1t Is serious matter, for chivalry has given those virtues which have proved our Sal- vation in the past, Mir. Kehoe said. He reminded that Wilfred of 1var1- hoe said that chivalry has curbed the powers of tyrants.
 The trafic of some of our indus trialistS with German manufactur- CTS, the payment of huge bonuses apparently to evade taxes, and the delay of important legislation are some of those things which have not helped, the speaker pointed out.
 But on the other hand, we find many businessmen cheerfully pay ing large taxes and some political leaders working long hours to plan for the defense of liberty. Young men of today are not clad in sable armor like the knights of old, but they carry on the principles of knighthood in the olive green of the army, and in their hearts are like the knights of old, he said.
 Plan For Tomorrow
 Although our sole aim now Is to win the war was soon as we possibly can, we are at the same time fight ing to make the world of tomorrow a better one, MT. Mccarthy said Those principles for tomorrow's world need to be won as well as the Axis powers subdued, he declared.
 An aftermath of previous wars has been that the cause of the fighting has ceased in the minds oi many. Many problems arise because we haven't planned for the future He reminded that despite the fact hundreds of thousands of Catholic men fought for this country in the past World War, soon after 1t there was . tidal wave of discrimination agatst Catholics in this country God grant that that won't happer again." he said.
 You have the right to expect thai your children will live in a world 1T which there are right principles, ht said, He urged unity of Catholic: and urged his audience to plan fou the future.
 Many mothers in the world are sad on this Mothers Day because their sons have little hope of find ing their mothers and families again, Father Quinn said. Mothers of today find their sons confronted with every possible form of evil There is Q lack of virtue, the kinc of virtues mothers inStill in theil children to make them happy ant successful, such as kindness, hon esty, truthfulness, loyalty, courage zeal for God, the priest said.
 He reminded that if things ar' based on human gain they must fai Ee pointed out Christ's mother wa! q gliper-mother, and watched he boy go through A natural human life. He failed, died deserted by HI followers jeered by the people, be trayed by one of His priests, but il that failure of death, He won for H conquered death sin and evil and Il the very act Of doing 1t, he gave t us His Blessed Mother. If we are t aave ourselves from hour our humal failures, we must attach ourselves t the Holy Mother, Father Dunn said
 Father Taylor congratulated tn society and extended best wishes Q Monsignor John J. Fitzgerald Grand Knight Caulhield welcomes the gathering.
