**The Main Cartoon ("Goodbye, Doggie"):** A dachshund (German dog) swims in water while an American eagle dives at it from above. The cartoon satirizes German-Americans during World War I, equating the German breed with enemy Germany. The image implies the need to eliminate German influence from America—a common wartime xenophobic sentiment. Railroad workers apparently found it resonant enough to post in offices. **Context:** America entered WWI in April 1917, making this July cartoon timely propaganda. Anti-German sentiment was intense; dachshunds became objects of suspicion as "enemy" symbols. **Other Content:** The page includes three humorous anecdotes about wealthy socialites, a famous Harvard president dismissing bores, and an Irishman's joke about Heaven—typical light satirical fare for Judge. Ads for hotels, ink pencils, and glue round out the commercial space.

“Goodbye, Doggie” CARTOON MAKES HIT WITH RAILROAD MEN A cartoon which appeared in a number of Leslie’s magazine of re- cent date, seems to have made a hit with railroad employes of _ this city. Several of the men have clipped the cartoon and posted it in a conspicuous place in their offices and others have been heard discuss- ing it. The cartoon drawn by Charles Sarka, shows a dachshund (German dog,) swimming about in the water, while the American eagle comes swooping down on it from above. The title of the picture is “Goodbye, Doggie.”"—The Logans- port Reporter. —| This. cartoon, 9 x 12, printed in sepia, mounted on a heavy mat, will be sent post paid to any address, for twenty-five cents. —— Leslie’s Art Department 225 Fifth Avenue New York } ———— Passing the Mustard The Idea!—Mrs. rich was talking to her broker over the telephone. “Kindly buy me a hundred. shares of steel at the market,” she said briskly. “Certainly, with pleasure,” the broker replied, “common or preferred?” * Preferred!” replicd Mrs. Neaurich, icily. “T never purchase anything common.” —The Lamb, Short Way with Bores—Dr. Charles W. Eliot, who recently celebrated his eighty- third birthday in Cambridge. has always had a short way with bores. In a hotel, one day, a bore tackled Dr. Eliot and talked straight ahead for to minutes about classical literature, the best. 100 books, 10-foot shelves, and so forth. “T tell you,” Dr. Eliot interrupted warmly—"T tell you, man, there are no mussels to compare with the abalone mus- sels you in ‘Frisco.’” No doubt,” said the bore, “but what has that got to do with what I was talk- ing about Dr. Eliot yawned. “What were you talking about?” he said. What He Would Do—An_ Irishman who was rather too fond of strong drink was asked by the parish priest: “My son, how do you expect to get into Heaven?” ‘he Irishman replied: Shure, and that’s aisy!) When I get to es of Heaven [ll open the door and shut the door, and open the door and shut the door, an’ keep on doing that till St. Peter gets impatient and says, ‘For goodness’ sake, Mike, either come in or stay out!" —Tit-Bits. A Lesson in Love NNETTE was reading when I called (I'm glad to say I was invited), And something in her book, it seemed, To joyous laughter her excited. She asked me if I wondered why, But I could offer no suggestion— “He'll never win the maid,” she said, “If that’s the way he pops the question.” Just think! I called there to propose, And much of thinking I gave to it; Thad been wondering all the day Of just the way T ought to do it. Her laughter set my brain awhirl My poor heart beat in awful fashion, And then I asked her how she thought The hero should have told his passion. ‘Then she proceeded to explain, The while my heart unduly fluttered. I marked each gesture that she made; T noted every word she uttered. At once my hesitancy fled; My manner grew to inspiration— T can not tell just what occurred, But soon you'll get an invitation!
