...with a feeling akin to sadness that the same readers now grown to manhood, greet the announcement that the Women's Christian Temperance Union has taken these self-same rimes and jingles and converted them into Prohibition propaganda. But the old order changeth and Progress is an exemplary ambition. Perhaps Mother Goose willingly aids and abets the Noble Experiment. Forsaking her eternal kingdom she will be seen in the night air stealthily aeroplaning--of course her broomstick is antiquated--hither and yon disseminating the evils of drink.
