And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street

was the first children's book of Theodor Seuss Geisel, and it was finally published after many rejections in 1937. His second book was the great, The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins in 1938. Doctor Seuss, used as his alias, was a notable anti-fascist of his day. He would not be lauded on Fox and Friends. Well, we were on Mulberry Street (not in his Springfield Mass., but Cleveland O.).
Stella Maris  ( [Our Lady] Star of the Sea) is one of the many titles given to Mary, the Mother of God. Under that title she is the guiding star that leads men (especially sailors) to Jesus. In 1948 a priest at St. Malachi's (which is steps away) worked with Alcoholics Anonymous to create a residency for the drunken homeless to be cared for. That work continues. [painter W. Sherman 2016]
 'M' is for Mulberry
