only few months back that the Ger
mans had the armies of the Allies
backed to the wall. In those critical
days the whole world somewhat
ENORMOUSLY asked: Where Is FOch''
"Foch has heart as well as brains.
He sat tight because he knew thou
sands upon thousands of human live,
depended upon his every decision.
Men of his type do not take long
chances-only fools and gamblers and
German military leaders, to whom
soldiers are cannon fodder, do that.
"Foch sat tight letting the world
pass such comment as it might He
knew that he would be responsible
for the resultant he accepted that
responsibility seriously. Foch waited
until the chances at least were equal.
The world knows what happened but
1t little appreciates, now, the lives he
saved.
"There is lesson here for every
one. 1t is to sit tight until you are
sure you may 60 ahead with the
minimum chance of disappointment
OR failure.
Unless you have something
worth while to offer when a subject
is presented, sit tight. If you don't
know what it is all about there Is
all the more reason you should sit
tight, for in that way you will be
learning something instead of dis
playing your ignorance. Sit tight,
but say the right thing at the right
time. Criticize when you can criti-
oize constructively, when you can
suggest something better for the
thing you tear down"
