Barney Tobey remembers a popular 1911 song in this cartoon from some half-century later. The song title is a long one and the cartoonist almost gets it right.
March 12, 2016 Update: This cartoon was published in the New Yorker. I have updated the caption on the cartoon art to reflect this.
Note: There's more on these subjects in the archives:
