What you’re looking at

This page from *Judge* magazine features humorous college anecdotes and advertising rather than political satire. The "College Wits" section collects brief jokes and witticisms attributed to various college publications, organized by category: "Consoled," "The Point of View," "Going Some," "Nationality Again," and "The Girl Question." The humor targets typical college life: romantic confusion (a girl who slaps a boy regardless of whether he tries to kiss her), dating rituals (calling on girls for various reasons—pianos, father's stories, warm hearths, cigarettes), and academic struggles (a French student suddenly appreciating the language). There's also social commentary on practical concerns like borrowing money and missing classes. The cartoons depict domestic romance and youthful misadventure in understated pen-and-ink style. The surrounding advertisements promote theatrical productions and a correspondence school for cartooning. This page reflects 1920s college culture humor with no apparent political commentary—purely entertainment focused on student dating, academic life, and adolescent sensibilities.
