he Origin of April Fool's Day
This holiday happened since 1545 because of an unfortunate accident.A
Norwegian scientist,named Loof Lirpa,invitd King Heary to attend his
demonstration flight which was the firt time in the world on April,1.
Nevertheless on the right day,Mr.Lirpa didn't show up at all.And the
reason was that his flying-machine crashed into a tree,which led to his
death and also the secret of flight. From then on ,people play tricks
on others on April 1 just as Mr.Lirpa did on the King,--though the
fact wasn't so .Actually,"Loof Lirpa" Wasn't his real name :if you say
the two words backwards,you'll find what his name really was --April
Fool.
