NICHOLS United Press Feature, Writer Washington (U.P.) If you are a parent, you must have curled up with the kids and read and re-reatl a lot of Mother Goose. And if you are old enough t o remember some of the originals, you know that a lot of the classics have Harman Nichols uecn ic-wiii.- ten to conform to the modern pattern of non-violence. For example, the fat old hag who lived in a shoe and had "so many children she didn't' know what to do" used to skin her younguns half to death and send them to bed without even any crumbs from the corn bread. Today, folks, she kisses them fondly" after she tucks them in. The gingerbread boy no longer is slapped to death by the fox from whom he hitch-hiked a ride back "happily into the arms of the little old man and little old woman who lived on the side of a hill." One Exception One standout exception to this tinkering with the old standbys is the "Little Engine That Could." It remains across the years the same nice little old engine it always was. The little old chugger still has a hard time making it up that grade. The art work pic tures it face twisted, and the stack of puffing out black smoke. Toady as always i says on the upgrade,: "I think I can, I think I can," puffing away "hard as it approached the top. Then "I thought I could, I thought I could, I thought I could.".

Jacobs, which came out in a magazine in 1910. A thing call ed "Kindergarten Review." Miss Jacobs got all of a dollar bill for her effort. Funny thing was that . Miss Jacobs herself filed her original a little late and wound up with second prize. Rules, you know. Other entries came in too late One was from a Miss Erica May Brooks, of New York, who for warded a photostat of an auto biography published in Germany back -in 1894. It mentioned "I think I can." Miss Mary H. Corlev of Con necticut recalled having heard the story in Sunday school in 1888. Too bad the person who really aia put me little engine on pa per could not have collected royalties.
