PREFATORY NOTE
These drawings are selections from Cartoons published, for the
most part, in a daily newspaper. They represent the emotions evoked
by the news from day to day, and make no pretense to a philosophic
viewpoint. They do seek to express, however, a deep conviction that
Germany is chiefly to blame for the war.
Boardman Robinson.
April, 1915.
