Caldwell ALL FOOL'S DAY All Food Day, or April Fool's Day, is one of those traditional events that's been with us tor a long time, but no one knows exactly how it ' started. '. j The most r, i pro b a b I e explanation tracts it back to France. In old en lime j, before France adopted the new cal endar in 1 564, the year began on April 1st for Frenchman. It was the custom to exchange gifts on that day and to make calls on friends and relatives. After New Year's Day was switched to January 1st under the modern calendar, some practical jokers continued to make mock calls on April 1st, and to present comic gifts. Even In the present time, anyone fooled in France is called a pois son d'avril ... an April fish. April Fool's Day isn't a bad day to have around ... to re mind us once a year that things aren't always what they seem, that a stray hat may have a brick under if . . . and that there's a little bit of the gull ible fool in all of us, any day of the year.
