# Judge Magazine, April 26, 1923 This page contains three distinct pieces: 1. **"How to Remain Single—Females"** by Kitty Parsons: Advice column satirizing dating and courtship, suggesting women wear spectacles, carry books, eat onions frequently, and adopt masculine mannerisms to discourage suitors. 2. **"Rhetorical"** by Gardner Rea: A brief humorous exchange mocking Southern nostalgia, where a Texas colonel romanticizes the Civil War as "Yanks in France," suggesting outdated thinking about regional conflict. 3. **Large illustration**: Depicts a dark interior space (marked "EXIT") with a May Day pole-dancing celebration visible through a small window—likely satirizing the contrast between traditional holiday celebrations and modern urban life or socialism-related May Day observances gaining attention in 1920s America.
