What you’re looking at

This page collects humorous short jokes and comic sketches from college humor magazines (Harvard's Lampoon, Yale's Record, etc.), reprinted for Judge's readers. The humor targets typical college and young-adult situations: romantic misunderstandings, flirtation, domestic squabbles, and generational conflict. Key jokes include: a soldier discouraged by a woman yelling "Attention!"; a father confused when his son calls him "the poor fish"; and a student explaining he stays behind in studies *to pursue* them. The cartoons depict dating scenarios and social awkwardness. The page also advertises Judge's "Art Print Department" offering a popular image called "The Curse of Drink" (showing a child, visible in the sketch), reflecting Progressive-Era moral concerns about alcohol. One advertisement recruits cartoonists for newspapers, indicating cartooning as a viable profession. The overall tone is lighthearted satire of young people navigating romance and family expectations during WWI (note the soldier reference).
