What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising and humor columns** rather than political cartoons. The satire is collegiate and social rather than political. The "College Wits" section features humorous pieces from university publications (Dartmouth, Yale, etc.), poking fun at student life and contemporary manners. These include: - **"The Queen's English"**: Mocking working-class accents and flirtation ("Second Avenue Sadie") - **"A Patriot"**: Satirizing overly cautious Americans who won't express opinions, sending them "parcel post" instead—likely referencing WWI-era patriotic pressure - Various jokes about romance, laziness, and social pretension The page is dominated by **commercial advertisements**—cocktail mixers, hotels, patent services, and novelty items. One notable ad mentions **Allen's Foot-Ease for troops**, indicating this is from the WWI era (the reference to "German and Allied troops at the front"). The humor is genteel, collegiate satire rather than sharp political commentary—typical of Judge's middle-class, educated readership in the 1910s.
