Sidney Smith is the creator of the popular Andy Gump, and the "Oh, Min!" pictures in the Chicago Tribune and its syndicate. For that reason Mr. Smith got over in Chicago. Elsewhere he will no get over. His scope is limited to newspapers, where he has been a proven and decided success. This is not because Mr. Smith is not a good artist or a good humorist, but because he is not a good vaudevillian.
