WIRELESODED CARTOON
DAVID LSIV Af;o THE PLOT .David Dow’s; cartoon on October 9 made history in more senses than one, for it was sent to Now York by wireless and iliei'o reproduced. One would like to see that reproduction, and will look eagerly to find what degree of perfection was attained. Kntitied ‘Dock Dobin,’ it pictured the protagonists of the Naval Pact imbroglio— Beavcrbrook and Jlearst; ,'l. Driand as Chautceier; Cushoiidun as a large, black beetle; IMiissolini, a very large and ugly monkey; Coolidge, m course, as the American eagle; and our own Stanley Baldwin a.- the British Dion; Dos has, too, broken into verse:—Who Killed the .Pact? “ We,” said the I’n - . “ We pul)li.sJ:cd the Mess, We killed the Bad.” Who saw U Die!-' “ I,” said Sir JOvegiius. “ With my little spyglass, I saw it die.” Who saw its Blood ? “1,” said iVD Briand. “Jo vois Tonjours le :;n;g, I saw its blood.” Who’ll make its Shroud? “I,” said Lord Cush. “ Jn secret! flush, hush; I’ll make its shroud.” Who’ll toll the Dell? “J,” said l.lie Dace, “(Dad of the excuse; I’ll 101 l the Dell.” Who’ll dig its ((rave? “.I,” said cool Cal. “Sure, .1. say, J shall! Dll dig its grave.” Who’ll sing a .Psalm? “ D” said poor Stanley. In tones soft but manly, “ I’i! sing a psalm.” ! All the birds of the air Pell a-sighing and a-soMiing When they heard of the life. Of this hit of cock-eyed jobbing.
