‘Ding’ cartoon of the month
REFUGE/DDWS
In honor of Memorial Day on May 29, we will feature a potent message from our namesake in the form of an editorial cartoon titled “To sacred memories and forgotten hatreds.” Pulitzer-winning Jay Norwood “Ding” Darling published the cartoon in the May 30, 1928, edition of the Des Moines Register. His cartoons have remained famous nationwide for a relevancy that carries on to this day. The “Ding” Darling Wildlife Society-Friends of the Refuge owns the copyright of the “Ding” Darling cartoons.
