Ching Chow
''Ching Chow'' was a one-panel cartoon that was created by Sidney Smith and Stanley Link in 1927 and ran for at least 50 years, under a variety of different creators. It was distributed by the Chicago Tribune/New York Daily News Syndicate.〔http://www.toonopedia.com/chingch.htm〕 The title character was a stereotypical Chinese man with slanty eyes and a big, toothy grin. He offered pearls of Confucius-style wisdom, like "Beware of silent dog and still water."〔http://www.umich.edu/~csie/comicart/StripArt/chingchow/chingchow.html〕 As one critic wrote about ''Ching Chow'', "It wasn’t as much a strip as it was a daily fortune cookie."〔http://bmj2k.com/2011/08/27/the-saturday-comics-ching-chow/〕 In later years, ''Ching Chow'' was viewed by many as a secret tip sheet for playing the numbers -- the panel would appear far in the back pages of the ''New York Daily News''. In a 1978 ''Village Voice'' article, one believer is quoted as saying, "Why you think ''Ching Chow'' has been in the newspaper all these years? Because it's funny? Hah, hah."〔http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1299&dat=19780731&id=eA4QAAAAIBAJ&sjid=aosDAAAAIBAJ&pg=5084,2267476〕 The strip was discontinued on June 4, 1990. ==References==
