What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising content** with one small editorial cartoon. The main "Judge" cartoon shows a figure labeled "REJECTED MSS" (rejected manuscripts) being examined by a stern-faced character labeled "JUDGE," surrounded by editorial tools. The satire appears to mock the magazine's editorial process—suggesting that Judge's editors harshly reject submissions. The cartoon plays on the magazine's name as both a publication title and a literal judge figure, making a visual pun about editorial gatekeeping. The surrounding advertisements (Philip Morris cigarettes, Pears' soap, Lifebuoy soap, champagne) suggest this is a wealthy readership aimed at. The page contains no identifiable political figures or references—it's largely commercial in nature with light editorial satire about publishing itself.

“An inany people. But he does not average American knows always know where they are. He has a thousand friends and acquaintances. Where are they at this particular moment? He can be sure of some of them—perhaps adozen. But he wants to locate one or more of the others. The Bell system enables him to reach them. If he finds his friend at home, or in his place of business, he talks with him at once. If helearns. that his friend is in some other town the Bell System will furnish the connection. Cities are larger than they used to be. Men know and need to know more people. Yet the need of keeping in touch is as great as ever. Without Bell service there would be hopeless confusion, The range of the telephone is | not confined to one town or one community. It is not satisfying simply to learn that a man is out of town; through the Long Distance Service of the Bell S tem he may be reached wherever he is. The Bell Service extends to all communities. It reaches the mill- ions of American people. One in twenty is a Bell subscriber. The other nineteen can be found, be- cause Bell service is universal service. The telephone does more work for less money than any other servant of mankind. There is economy as well as efficiency in one system, one policy, universal service. Every Bell Telephone is the Center of the System.

WITH the single excep- tion of this column, Jupce for this week is edited by contributors. Even the regular editorial | page is given to an expres- sion of their views. Au- thors have so long said that editors rejected their fun-! niest jokes, that JupcEe thought it was time to give them an! opportunity to offer their wares to the public. When the idea of such a number was suggested to William J. Lampton, he replied, ‘‘ The idea is a good one if you will carry it to its logical finish; that is, publish whatever any writer-humorist will send to you over his signature. But if you still assume the editorial prerogative of ‘swatting’ the manu- script, what's the good of sending any-| thing? Of course, if an author sends inore than one thing, and by that at- cempts to unload on you, you can send hack the surplus; but one thing at least you must take."’ This is exactly what the editor of Junce has done. The case now govs before the court of public opinion. What is your verdict? For the best letter received, JupcEe offers a prize of five dollars, A second prize of three dollars and a third prize of five three months’ subscriptions to Jupce will be awarded for the next six best letters. Everybody is eligible to vote, whether subscribers to JupGE or not. One can vote on both sides of the question, as prizes are awarded on the merits of the letter. Authors, however, must not stuff the ballot box. VALENTINE NUMBER Out next week, Along with the com- ical sentiments of the day will be a serious one worth framing.
