What you’re looking at
This page contains miscellaneous literary content and illustrations rather than coherent political satire. The items include: **"Mother Goose Revised"** and **"A Practical Farmer"** — brief humorous dialogues with no clear political target. **"The White Man Comes Back"** — A cartoon showing two figures (possibly caricatured as racial stereotypes based on the exaggerated features visible) exchanging or competing over goods. The title suggests commentary on colonialism or racial dynamics, though the specific context remains unclear without additional historical markers. **"Aviator's Lullaby"** and other poems appear to be general humor rather than satire. The page functions primarily as filler content—jokes, verses, and illustrations—typical of Judge's miscellaneous entertainment rather than focused political commentary.

WOMEN can keep the secrets of their own making much better than those imparted to them by another. A little thing like get- ting into deep water does- n't embarrass the man who paddles his own canoe. It is true that money once made the mare go; but now it buys an auto and the mare is allowed to stay in the pasture. A woman wants to be prettier than she was the last time, and not quite as what I can’t be. RESIST EVIL. By W. B. KERR. F A BRIBE is offered you, Promptly spurn it; If you write a thing untrue, Better burn it: If you ever go amiss And in stealing seek for bliss, Should you’ merely steal a kiss, Best return it.
