Louis Wain Fact #61:
Despite the fact that his annuals were aimed primarily towards children, he often used them to voice his political stances, such as his support of suffrage and dislike of socialism. This may have been a cause for the troubled relations between him and his publishers, of which he went through many.

Full to the brim of sours;
But I rather think the sun doth shine
Though many golden hours.
Note how the lark doth speed with song
On merry, tripping wing;
Pack up your world of troublous cares -
A merry heart doth sing.
