What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and filler content** rather than political satire. The dominant features are: **Editorial Content:** - "The Skater": A nostalgic poem celebrating ice-skating as superior to modern inventions (airships, autos) - "A Boy's Essay on Stockings": Humorous piece mimicking a child's misspelled, rambling thoughts on different types of stockings and their uses - "Nothing To Do 'Till To-morrow": A brief anecdote about a Chinese gardener who works every day except Sunday afternoons (when he does laundry) **Social Context:** The piece uses period-appropriate ethnic humor (the Chinese laborer character "Charley Sing" speaks in stereotypical broken English). This reflects early-20th-century American magazine conventions. **Advertising:** The page is dominated by ads for whiskey, hotels, skating equipment, and other commercial products—typical of Judge's revenue model. No significant political satire or sophisticated cartooning is evident on this particular page.

SMITH, Managing Director Plaza Hotel, Chicago, under same management. The Skater. Ho’. DEAR to my heart are the scenes of my childhood, As fond recollection presents them to view; But dearer than those of the meadow and wildwood Are those of the lake und the river I knew. Here fishing and swimming and boat- ing in season Gave summer a charm that no weather could mar, Though winter, in after-life dreaded with reason, With skating a rarer delight gave by far. This age has its wonders in joyous devices, With airships and autos and other new things; But pleasure to me still continues where ice is, For skating is almost like speed- ing with wings. A Boy's Essay on Stockings. GSTORRIGS was invented to keep boys from going bear foot. Addam had no stokkings. Neither did Kane when he sloo his brother Able. Those were the happy days. There are three kinds of stokkings mans ladies and childrens. Mens stok- kings are not stokkings at all. They are socks. Some people call them hoes. Ladies stokkings you aren't alloud to talk about, they are supposed to wear nothing but skurts. Childrens stok- kings are long in winter and short in summer. Because heat contracts father says. After I get long pants I wont have to wear no stokkings. Stokkings are very usefull to carry mud and stones in when you are digging for a gold mine. They are good things also for pirates to blind fold their viktims with. Stokkings can be worn untill the holes show above your shoe tops. Then you have to change them or paint the holes with ink because it isent polight to show your bear skin. Except your face and hands. If they are washed. Stokkings are very valyooble at Christmas. This vear I am going to hang up my nite shurt with the botom tide together. Godfrey Horry. Nothing To Do ‘Till To-morrow. Charley Sing, a Chinese gardener, peddles truck in Salt Lake City. One of his best customers is a banker. One morning Sing drove up to solicit orders for vegetables, and he found the banker working among the flowers in the yard. It was Decoration Day and the bank was closed. “*You no work to-day?’’ inquired Sing. “I should say not!’ replied the banker. ‘‘This is a holiday.’’ “*Me work all same,’’ said Sing. ‘‘Me work all same every day ‘cept Sunday afternoon.’’ **What do you do Sunday afternoon, if you don’t work?’’ inquired the banker. “Me washee plenty shirt last all week!’ was the Chinaman’s reply.
