m.gnx x tx-s nnnu'xumr. . : .::- :. A p . -. Many years ago, when chivalry was in its prime, young men were knighted when they had reached a s certain age. First they had to go through years of training. This ceremony meant that the young boy became a man, ready to face the world. It was the all important step in a young man's life. - ,. xvme A xhx JJIIII! x I hlhlhlhhhln w: . utS - .wti -n!A 3!?v. .1932. n . vix - 32:2. Wenw .! ' 13.9,? h -.--n an.- -.n lim Vlzgjtaggrw lull . In our modern 1951, we also are being knighted. The whole world awaits us outside-but we are ready. We, like the young knight, have had years of training and are believed to be young adults, the new generation. We are the people to whom the older generation are handing the world and its. , problems. They are sad to have .to give it to us in . its. present insecure and chaotic state. But the knights didn't have a pleasant looking future either, back in the medieval ages. So we, like they, shall leave the protecting walls of our castle and enter the chaos called our future confident that we will fight for a better world to hand to the next generation of Knights? lh- lam m.;.;;.e.:....-.......iat,n;..;h.e..e .'.W
