# Analysis of Judge Magazine Page (December 5, 1922) The top cartoon shows a figure riding in a cart pulled by an ostrich, captioned "Look Goose Here!" This appears to be satirizing someone's poor judgment or foolish behavior—the ostrich as a beast of burden is inherently absurd. The page's main content is a poem titled "True Love" by Ruth Hussey Thompson, a sentimental piece about Christmas fading and lost romance. Below it are humorous short exchanges, including a joke about a stenographer and a manicurist. The large illustration depicts bears gathered around a tree, seemingly celebrating Christmas in a forest setting, with a botanical note about mistletoe growing near Bruintown—a whimsical, non-political animal vignette typical of Judge's humor content.
