One now hears that a French dirigible has been dropping bombs into Luxembourg a much more dignified retort. War is a grim game. Able editors and club-chair politicians have been clamoring for it for years past. They thought it was all goose-step and bands. The truth is bad enough, God knows. There is no sense in making things out worse than they are. When this war is over we have got to forget it.
The père dropped upon his knees beside her.
