Forty Years
CartOOning

TIME signature "W. A. Rogers has
been familiar to those who have fol-
n lowed political cartoons during the
last forty years. II is the hallmark OF
William A. Rogers, one Of the first and
most popular Of American cartoonists,
whose personal "reminiscences have been
published under the title Of "a World
Worth While"
Politics having been until recently
mans game, Mr.. Rogers's cartoons have
been Of men, and his book deals with those
masculine leaders Of political thought
whom he studied from the life during his
long and busy years Of cartooning.
Even now that women are in politics,
one se.dom-in fact, never-sees them car
featured in the newspapers, he pointed
out. "Are the cartoonists too gallant" he
was asked.
"Yes, ! think the average cartoonist
doesn't want to cartoon Women" he said.
Zone of the two caricatured was that
woman who used to throw bricks and
things-Mrs Pankhurst. But never car
featured her after 1914, because she did
magnificent things during the war;"
But this is deteriorating-f force
Of habit-into the usual story about
wcmen Let us turn back, then, with the
famous cartoonist 10 some Of the great
men who filled the work-days Of his past
Because Of this mellow experience with
the greatest men in the past half century
he was asked:
"What one quality did most Of these
men have in commonW
ain the really great men ] have known,
She cartoonist answered slowly, Il would
say that the most predominant quality
common 10 all was simplicity.
"An example Of a simple modest man
was little Joe Wheeler, one Of the greatest
cavalrymen in the South. I've sat a whole
evening with-him, but could hardly per
suade myself that he had done all th'

Another very simple, modest eharacte
was Mckinley. He was man who hat
been through any number Of politiea
fights and yet who was always a simple
quiet gentleman. They talk about his no
having any baekbone-that Mark Ham
dominated him. Why, Mark Hanna woul
