The day before the big English at tack near l.oos, in northern France," the British soldiers in the tlrst trench saw a board shoved up b\ the Ccrnians in the trench opposite. It bore the in scription: "The English Are Fools." Nobody took the trouble even to shoot al it. Soon the board was lowered, then raised again with this addition: "The French Are Fools." The Fnglish soldiers ignored that. too. But they began to wake up when the board was lowered again and hoisted with tho legend: "We Are Fools." That drew loud and prolonged applause. The next time the board disappeared the British waited eagerly for its appearance, and bur^t into an uproar of applause when they read: "Why Not All <;o II aie," Foi' once, in .one little segment of miles of trenches, common sense reigned.
