Excerpt from Torontonians as We See ‘Em, 1905: Cartoons and Caricatures
But there is another pantheon, where the living may repose in comfort and whose only conditions are that they be representative of the interests of people now on earth - and look pleasant. On these trifling conditions, the boon of immortality is conferred upon men by those latter-day Olympians, the caricaturists of the daily press. Little Gods of the Brush and Pencil whose creations shall endure so long as men prefer to smile rather than to weep.
