What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising**, not political satire. It contains product advertisements (diamonds, whiskey, cigars, ginseng gum, pipes, cameras) typical of early 20th-century magazines. However, it includes one **poem by Edgar A. Guest** titled "The Vote of Thanks," which offers social commentary. The poem satirizes workplace dynamics: it critiques how idle people avoid labor while industrious workers carry the burden, then receive only hollow "votes of thanks" as reward. Guest contrasts the many who rest in comfort against the few who toil, suggesting this pattern continues even into the afterlife ("at the heavenly banks"). The satire targets **lazy colleagues and passive management**—those who benefit from others' work while offering only perfunctory gratitude. It's not political satire but rather social commentary on workplace fairness and the disconnect between actual labor and symbolic recognition. The page otherwise serves as a time capsule of early-1900s consumer culture and advertising practices.

And when his arduous tasks are done, From out the idle ranks There promptly steps a grateful one To move a vote of thanks, Where more than three foregathered are In meeting, club or lodge, Some cheerful soul must do the work Thatrall the others dodge. Some one for all must toil and plan, Some one the money banks, For which the shirkers to a man Will move a vote of thanks. The many spend their hours in ease, While busy are the few; The glory of the game they want, But not its work to do. Untroubled here on earth they live; The strength that’s in their shanks They save, to those who toil to give A rising vote of thanks. Some day, when all the work is done And rest has settled down, Perhaps the weary toiler then Will wear a golden crown. Upon his breast may medals flash, And at the heavenly banks Perhaps they'll even let him cash Those rising votes of thanks. —Edgar A. Guest, in Detroit Free Press, Disappointed—‘‘I will confess to you,”” she said, ‘‘that I am older than I look. I will be thirty-one my next birthday.’” “Really!”? he replied. ‘Hardly any one would guess that you were more than about twenty-nine.” “‘That’s the last time,’’ she said, when he had departed, “that I'll ever try to be nice to a brute.’’—Chicago Record-Herald. Homesick—‘‘Did you give this man the third degree?”’ asked the police officer. “Yes, We browbeat and badgered him with every question we could think of.’" “What did he do?”’ “He dozed off and merely murmured now and then, ‘Yes, my dear. You're per- fectly right.’ ’’—Chicago Record-Herald. Proof—‘‘Freddie has a fortune in pol- itics. He knows the ropes,’’ declared the admiring friend. “Yes, I judged that from the campaign cigar he gave me.’’—St. Louis Republic. Efficiency—‘‘Our boss is a crank on effi- ciency.’ ‘‘What’s he up to now?"" “Trying to teach the stenographer to chew her gum in two movements less per minute to the lower jaw."’—Louisville Courier-Journal, We Draw the Curtain They had broken a wishbone together. ‘What was it you wished?’’ laughed she. “IT wished that you’d let me kiss you; Now tell me your wish,’’ said he. Her eyes fe!l—she paused a moment, While her blushes deeper grew. “‘My wish was,”’ she prettily stammered, “That what you wished would come true.”” —San Francisco Chronicle.
