ing the game. They had absorbed all
the motions, gestures, earnestness and
gusto, and If they had been black you
would have sworn they were little
negro boys just rolling out French
instead Of English with the dice. It
was sure funny TO listen to their
seven come eleven and other dice
phrases 7 doubt if they learned so
much about the game from our negro
soldiers only"
