Don’t Let The “Ads”
Deceive YOU!
Many of the Popular Magazines have recently run full-page
“Ads” depicting typical scenes of life in “The Home-Loving
Land of Our” and trying to make us believe that “BEER BE-
LONGS.” It DOES Belong and Just WHERE is indicated by
the following poem :
BEER BELONGS
i saw a liquor ad one day
Deceive the madding throng.
It showed a home—the modern
way—
And said that “Beer Belongs.”
It showed the sweetest family
scene.
With children singing songs;
The mother kept the home so
clean.
The ad said, "Beer Belongs.”
But when I saw that liquor ad
My heart defied such wrongs,
For I recalled my drunken dad
Who thought that “Beer Be
longs.”

Christmas
And I recalled my mother’s tears
Soul-scared with iron tongs.
The family fortunes plagued with
fears,
Because well--‘Beer Belongs.’
Oh! beer belongs where sin is
rife,
The heart of crime and wrongs.
Behind the scene in family strife.
In jail
“Beer Belongs.”
