1930 The Saloon in the Home
A THOUGHT (Magistrate Violet J!,. Fahnestock in the "Phz"ladelphz'a Record") H ERE is just one evidence of the benefit that has resulted in Philadelphia. When children of the neighborhood were taken into the Methodist Episcopal Deaconess Home on Vine Street at Franklin Square, because of the drunk– enness of their fathers or mothers, before prohibition, they al– ways spoke of their parents as 'the old man' or 'the old woman.' Now they refer to them as 'father' or 'mother.' That accomplish– ment alone justifies the Eighteenth Amendment. The lives of just a few of the younger generation have been bettered."

WATER! W ATER! water! cries the bird, Pouring from his little throat; Water! water! clear and sweet!
With his singing, gentle note: And the liquid sound is heard
Te-weet ! te-weet !
