Three monkeys sat in a coconut tree
Discussing things as they are said to be
Said one to the others, "Now listen, you two,
there's a rumor around that can't be true
"That man descended from our noble race
"The very idea is a great disgrace.
"No monkey has ever deserted his wife
"Starved her babies and ruined her life
"And you've never known a mother monk
"To leave her babies with others to bunk
"Or pass from one on to another
"Till they scarcely knew who is their mother.
"Here's another thing a monkey won't do
"Go out at night and get on a stew
"Or use a gun or club or knife
"To take some other monkey's life
"Yes, man descended, the ornery cuss
"But, brother, he didn't descend from us."

This week is the 200th celebration of Darwin's birthday...
News Item:
This morning a zoo keeper was astounded to enter the chimpanzee enclosure at the city zoo. He found a chimp holding the Bible opened to Genesis in one hand and a copy of Darwin's 'Evolution of Species' in the other...and he heard the chimp whispering to another, 'Am I my keeper's brother?'
