What you’re looking at
This is primarily an **advertising and announcements page** from Judge magazine, with minimal editorial cartoon content. The main cartoon (center) depicts two men discussing military recruitment for aviation. One recruiter boasts they've enlisted clergymen, calling them "sky pilots" (a nickname for military chaplains). The other man makes a dark joke: "No, as birds of pray"—a pun conflating "birds of prey" with clergy, satirizing the irony of religious men being recruited for warfare. The page is dominated by **commercial advertisements** (health belts, diamonds on credit, watches) typical of early 20th-century magazines. Several short **joke items** appear, including quips about immigration restrictions, horse-training, and Christian Science. The bulk of the page announces **next week's cover** by Orson Lowell titled "Khaki the Universal," suggesting the magazine was addressing military/wartime themes—likely from WWI era based on the aviation recruitment joke and the cover's title reference to military uniforms.
