What you’re looking at
This page contains **humor columns and advertisements** rather than political cartoons. **"With the College Wits"** features brief jokes from various college humor magazines (Cornell, Princeton, Jack o' Lantern, etc.), poking fun at common college-era scenarios: religious hypocrisy, romantic relationships, and advertising. The "doughty colonel" verse appears to be mock-heroic doggerel. **The advertisements** dominate the right side: Moon Motor Cars emphasize luxury and European refinement (appealing to wealthy readers), and the "1,000 Island House" resort advertises upscale leisure accommodations in New York. The page reflects **1917 American middle/upper-class concerns**: courtship rituals, consumer goods as status symbols, and leisure pursuits. There are no identifiable political figures or historical events referenced—this is primarily commercial entertainment for college-educated readers with disposable income.

Its seats are just as comfort- able and inviting as those big chairs at the Club and are finished in real tan Spanish leather. The aisle be- tween the front seats allows easy entrance to the rear. The backs of the former are upholstered all the way down to the floor — in keeping with the refinements of a handsomely appointed club room. Moon cars have surplus power.
