They tell the story of a harvest festival held in a small french village.It would be a week of celebration and thanks. Quote! The smallest good deed is better than the grandest good intention.
It would be a community effort. Each family was to contribute some of the food and drink. In fact they would make filling the wine barrel at the fair grounds a cooperative effort. Each family would bring five liters of its own wine and pour it into this community barrel from which they would all drink.
On the final day of the celebrations the mayor of the town was asked to open the barrel and pass around the wine for one great toast. He opened the tap and drew the first glass. He tasted it. It was only water.

You see, each villager had brought water and saved his own wine at home. Each one was so sure that in so large a barrel a little water would never be noticed.
