A `moral' lesson on temperance, with a photograph of a young girl kneeling by her father in a tavern and the rhyme: Father, Come Home; 'Father, dear father, come home with me now, The clock in the steeple's struck one! You promised, dear Father, that you would come home, As soon as your day's work was done. Our fire has gone out - our House is all dark. And Mother's been watching since tea, With poor Brother Benny so sick in her arms, And no one to help her but me.'
