This is so emphatically the children’s age that a good many of us are thankful that we were not born in it. The little girl who said she wished she had lived in the time of Charles II because then “education was much neglected” wins our sympathy. It is a doubtful privilege to have the attention of the civilized world focussed upon us both before and after birth.
