'Further Symptoms of Mild Distemper Appear', by Arch Dale
In this 'biting' cartoon of Premier Aberhart, Winnipeg Free Press cartoonist Arch Dale played on the idea of distemper (an illness affecting dogs and other animals) and the common saying attributed to Charles A. Dana: 'When a dog bites a man that is not news, but when a man bites a dog that is news!'
