Berlin has ordered that the schools in Alsace and Lorraine only teach German. The new teacher will arrive tomorrow. Today is your last French lesson. I hope you will study hard..."
I heard Mr. Hamel say to me, "I don't blame you either, little Franz. You must feel bad enough yourself. That's it. Everyone thinks like this every day:" forget it, there's plenty of time. It's not too late to learn tomorrow. \ "now look at our results. Alas, we have to put off learning until tomorrow, This is the greatest misfortune of the Alsatians. Now those guys have reason to say to us: "why? You still say you are French, you can't speak or write your own language!" \'but poor little Franz, it's not your fault. We all have a lot to blame ourselves for.'
"Your parents don't care enough about your study. In order to earn more money, they would rather ask you to leave your books in the field and go to work in the cotton mill. Don't I blame myself? Don't I often ask you to leave your homework and water the flowers for me? When I go fishing, don't I just give you a day off?"
