The story centers around Artie, who is having a birthday party, but who isn't happy as his mother made him invite all the little tots. Mother Goose pays a surprise visit from the moon. She is so annoyed by the way the elder children doubt her iden tity that she changes them into Mother Goose characters to the de light of the little tots. These won derful "transformations" are accom plished by waving her magic feather over their heads, one at a time. However, the jaunty old lady al most comes to grief while changing them "back to normal." While Artie and Irene are still in their nursery book characters, or "Moony," as Mother Goose calls it, she proves she's only a silly old goose after all by changing herself into an "earth person." No longer being Moony, she cannot make Artie and Irene in to real children, as the feather simply will not work magic for an "earth person Presbyterian Rev. James Douthitt, pastor 9:45 a. nil.
