What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising and humor content**, not political cartoons. The main editorial element is a Leslie's Weekly advertisement addressing **World War I**. The **central question** posed—"Not who started the war—but who is going to end it?"—reflects American anxiety circa 1914-1917 about U.S. involvement in the European conflict. The ad targets military men and foreign office officials "sick of fighting," suggesting this appeared when the war's end seemed uncertain. The remainder of the page consists of **college humor jokes** (puns and wordplay from university publications like *Stanford Chaparral* and *Wisconsin Awk*) and **product advertisements** for cocktails, books, Ford joke collections, and ink pencils—typical Judge magazine filler. The Leslie's ad positions the magazine as providing authoritative coverage of war developments through "picture reporters" and Washington correspondents, marketing itself as essential reading for understanding America's potential role in ending the conflict.
