T 11 E A R T [SAN S ' 30 ALL FOR ONE, ONE FOR ALL By Norwin Johnson BLARE IF ' I RUMPETS, the measured roll of drums! The King and his musketeers are marching by ! There goes 1 I ' Artagnan, proud, gallant. loyal youth, Athos, the great nobleman, the true friend, beloved by all who know him, Porthos, strong, pompous, lovable, with the heart of a little child, Aramis, supercilious, elegant, the exquisite dandy to his finger tips, yet as tempered and deadly as a Toledo blade; four men. men of different characters. welded together by loyalty and love, a perfect union — Cavaliers — the sign symbol of that heroic age. France in the seventeenth century was undergoing a renaissance. I lie nobles who were supported by hand- of mercenaries and had held selfish sway over the country, were being broken by the genius of the great Cardinal Armand de Riche- lieu. Xew idea- so necessary to a country ' - gn.wth were permeating the minds of men : and hum of those ideas, living exponents of them, were the Cavaliers. Their cry was Viv le Roi! They shed their blood and they laid down their live- at the king ' s command. They instilled into France the vitality that was to make of her the greatest of nations. What was the influence that they and their descendants held over the history of France? We can point to no one virtue, to no one characteristic. They combined bravery, ingenuity, loyalty, and a wonderful and terrible vitality into a superqual- lty that made them irresistible. There are no words adequate to describe them. We salute them. Magnificent Cavaliers! They were men who endured, who suc- ceeded or died. They were men who built a country with their bones, who ce- mented its fabric with their bl 1. Their descendants followed Napoleon aero-- a continent. Today they rule a va-t colonial empire, holding it so well that no hint oi insurrection escapes. From the thrilling days of the seventeenth century when 1) ' rtagnan and Cyrano de I ' .ergerac walked the streets of Paris until the present time they have always been found on the road that lead- to glory. And though thev may have died in gallant lights in desert wastes and their bones now lie mouldering in obscure graves, their spirit marches on and inspires the living sons of France to fight a brave fight. Their bodies may have been torn b shot or pierced by steel but the lesson that they teach and the fame of their deeds can never die. Though they are dust, though nothing mortal remain- of them, they can never be forgotten. They are an imperishable part of French history. Their memory is held dear by the mother land. Across the vista of centuries we salute them ' Cavaliers! We of this age mav never approach their greatness but we can follow in their steps and face life with their imperturbable calm, lie loyal, brave and honest, then as true nobleman we may keep our honor like a trusty blade, clean and unsullied, and deserve something at last. Hola! Cavaliers!
