Mr.. Sydney Brooks, writing in Har
per's Weekly, gives some of the rea-
sons why Punch has so strong a hold
on the affections of the British public
and why it fails to appeal to Ameri-
cans The great virtue of Punch, he
says, is its seriousness, in which opin-
ion there will be many on this side
OF the water TO agree with him The
great fault of the American comic
papers, it appears, is that they are not
serious enough. They are always max
ing jokes. Punch, ON the other hand
eyades these mistakes. because it is
really not humorous, but critical
