What you’re looking at
This page contains two winter-themed comic strips. The **top panel** shows a horse-drawn sleigh where Mr. Clark asks Fresh kid about "where has Jones gone to?" Fresh kid replies he doesn't know for certain, but thinks Jones went "where the neighbors all said he ought to go when he died"—implying Jones went to Hell. The **bottom panel** depicts an anxious mother asking Bobby Puddinghead if he knows where her son Jimmie is. Bobby responds he last saw him "standin' where that 'ole is," referring to what appears to be a dangerous hole in frozen ice. Both strips use dark humor about uncertain, potentially fatal destinations—one theological (Hell), one physical (through thin ice)—playing on winter peril and childhood mischief.
