What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising and advice content** rather than political cartoons. The main features are: 1. **"What the Boss Requires"** - A satirical "Ten Commandments" from a Canadian business, offering workplace advice. It's a humorous critique of employer-employee relations, mocking both demanding bosses and lazy workers through exaggerated demands (don't lie, watch your work not the clock, don't steal). 2. **Brief jokes** from various publications about domestic life (boiling water, dance crazes, children playing trains) — typical early 20th-century humor reflecting middle-class concerns. 3. **Multiple advertisements** for sex education manuals, newspaper clipping services, hotels, and patent commercialization. The "Lady Pirate" advertisement on the right promotes a colored print from Judge's art department. **No clear political satire or caricature appears here.** This is a miscellaneous page of light humor, workplace advice presented comedically, and commercial advertisements typical of Judge magazine's format.

What the Boss Requires P in Canada there is a successful business concem that expects, as most successful concerns do, that every employee shall do his full duty. To assist him in the task that con- cern places conspicuously before him these ‘Ten Demandments” 1. Don’t lie. It wastes my time and yours. I am sure to catch you in the end, and that is the wrong end. 2. Watch your work, not the clock. A long day ’s work makesa long day short; and a short*day’s work makes my face long. 3. Give me more than I expect, and I will give you more than you expect. Ican afford to increase your pay you increase my profi 4. You owe so much to yourself you can not afford to owe anybody else. Keep out of debt, or keep out of my shop. 5. Dishonesty is ne’ an accident. Good men, like good women, never sec temptation when they mect it. 6. Mind your own business, and in time you'll have a business of your own to mind. 7. Don’t do anything here which hurts your self-respect. An employe who is willing to steal for me is willing to steal from me. 8. Itis none of my business what you do at night. But if dissipation affects what you do the next day, and you do half as much as I demand, you'll last half as long as you hoped. 9. Don’t tell me what I'd like to hear, but what I ought to hear. I don’t want a valet to my vanity, but one for my dollars. 10. Don’tkick if 1 kick. If you're worth while correcting you're worth while keeping. I don’t waste time cutting specks out of rotten apples. ‘The young man in business—and no few of the old men as well—can get a good deal of profit from close perusal of these demands of the Canadian firm. A quiet self-examina- tion of himself will develop in his own mind whether he is giving his employer all that employer has a right to expect. And it isa good deal easier for needed reprimands to be self-administered than to come from the “boss.” —Houston Post.
