In the 1921-1922 Holiday Number of the last men- 

 tioned publication the lineage of its name is charmingly 

 traced in most graceful lines: 



The sainted Louis leads his knights of France 

 To wrest from tyranny of Paynim band 

 The Saviour's tomb and all the Holy land: 

 His royal standard heads their brave advance, 

 Inspiring courage, steadying each lance. 

 Their eager souls await their lord's command. 

 Beneath his Fleur de Lis, on Syria's strand; 

 They hail the snowy folds with loving glance.
