Ancient fables and modern facts
Cartoon by Carey Orr entitled "Ancient Fables and Modern Facts," depicts "authors of Arabian Nights' fables," surrounded by a "magic lamp," "flying carpet," "magic wealth," "magic rope," and a book of the "Arabian Nights." The authors hold a newspaper with headlines such as "airplane travels three miles per minute," and "photo sent by wire." In response, one author claims, "By the beard of the prophet, we're outdone!"
