What you’re looking at
This page features several humorous cartoons typical of Judge's satirical humor: **Top cartoon (Wacklin):** A man explains his racing success to a friend named Porky, claiming it was pure luck—a play on beginner's fortune. **Hanna cartoon:** A wealthy man asks a poor laborer what he does for work; the man replies "only at intervals, sir"—satirizing unemployment or sporadic employment during economically uncertain times. **Garrett cartoon:** A boy named Willie uses a globe as a surface to save—a visual pun on the conservation slogan "save the surface and you save all," mocking children's literal interpretation of adult sayings. **Kock cartoon (bottom):** Two golfers discuss a riddle about cider with raisins. The punchline plays on "hard cider" (fermented/alcoholic cider)—the second golfer adds raisins to increase alcohol content, suggesting Prohibition-era drinking practices. The page also contains period advertisements (pistols, automobiles, birth control) reflecting early 20th-century consumer culture.
