Has such a papera claim upon the reading public?

In short, has it a function P There is food for thought in these questions. Some years ago a similar paper, “The Grip” was started in 1‘0- ronto, edited by that noted cartoonist.

As is often the ca3e, however, the failure of an enterprise does not, in the long run discourage, but nets as a stimulus to further activity. Strange as it may seem, failures are necessaries in We and Without them there would be little progress. The birth of “ The Moon” is the, proof of this. It remains to be seen whether it will survive the No reasonable person \\‘lil deny the influence of the stage for good ; i. e. ol Cetus: the r. oral stage. '1 he stage that pictures to us He as enacted in the past and present. Whether the drama be of humorous or serious na ure‘ it is not without its. good results. We have it on prod authority, that “ all the \x‘m'ld‘s a stage, the men and women are merely players."

It is true \\'t: have a deluge at the present time of the socalled comic opera, just as we have :1 deluge of the trashy comic paper printed in the United States.‘ Such operas and papers will in the end largely bring about their own downfall. Canadian journals have sought a higher plain and it is to be hoped they will never sink below their own standard. In this year of our Loni 1903, a new pubhcation in Untarxo has sprung to ('1 the stage. It caters to the public along ' the same lines. But in some respects it has greater potency, especially in that department of the paper where the car- toonist with a few bold strokes of the pencil represents to the public in a hu- morous or ludicrous light, the actions of public men and of nations It has been found true that often public men i and nations can, in this manner, see their short comings in a clearer light and be more effective for reform, than all the fusilage of wit, humour, satire aimed at them from the public platform, or on the floor of the legislature. It is essential that the cartoonist, as Well as the writer be truthful, if he wishes to be beneficial, i. e., he must strike only at that which needs reform and he must , measure the force of his blow according ‘ to the extent of the evil. If he should overdo it, then sympathy is extended to the object of reform, and the work is ineffictive. He must in his manner of attack, as justly represent public opinion, as the artist in this landscape picture endeavors to represent truly a scene in nature. lhc function 01 the satirical paper is almost of ‘. parallel nature to that of At the present time there is a tenâ€" dency of men, men from the old sod, who, in some manner, largely through acmdents and having a fair amount of ability, have reached a certain degree of distinction, to come over to this side of the water to display their knowledge and experience upon the lecture platâ€" ; form, or their meagre amateur theatri- cal ability upon the stage, to the nomad Canadian race as one American writer in his ignarzmce is pleased to style us. This custom was hit of? in a very realisâ€" tic manner in an article in the Moon, ? March 15th; A few lines of quotation will show how a satirical paper deals with a matter of this kind.
