What you’re looking at

This page mixes a **whiskey advertisement** with **college humor** from various university publications. The top features a **Sunny Brook Whiskey ad** with an "Inspector" character—a reference to Prohibition-era federal alcohol regulation. The ad claims fifty years of quality production and boasts being "the largest distillers of fine old whiskies." The inspector figure ironically represents government oversight, while the ad emphasizes the product's legitimacy under "U.S. Inspectors." Below is a Leslie's Weekly promotion for articles about Alaska by Edgar Allan Forbes. The right side collects humorous riddles and jokes from college newspapers (Stanford Chaparral, Harvard Lampoon, etc.). These include mild, period-appropriate humor: a riddle about men following women until darkness (implying impropriety becomes invisible), jokes about police ("bobbies"), bald men watching dancers, and domestic humor about women's minds. The humor reflects early-20th-century college attitudes—somewhat risqué by era standards but relatively innocent today.

I wonder why ! u But when to shadows of the Quad The maids drew nigh, And were no longer rare and bright In silhouetty western light, ‘The roughs went by, As though some newly thought of need Had pressed them in a burst of speed To pass the maids without a sigh. J wonder why !—Stanford Chaparral. Behold the nobby bobby, Filet minion of the law! His one and dearest hobby Is to fill the world with awe, To fill the air with thunder, To fill the crowds with fear, To fill the mobs with wonder, And to fill himself with beer. —Harvard Lampoon.
