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."

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