Judge — April 11, 1925 — page 33: what you’re looking at
What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising and editorial content**, not political cartooning. The main advertisement promotes a **rebuilt Underwood typewriter** for $3 down, marketed as "just like new" after complete factory remanufacturing. It emphasizes the company's 33-year history rebuilding machines and offers a 10-day free trial—typical early 20th-century sales tactics. Below that are several brief **humorous anecdotes** reprinted from other publications (Louisville Courier-Journal, Tit Bits, Answers magazines). These joke columns touch on marital affection, police encounters, and burglary—standard period humor with no political content. The page also contains advertisements for **rings and a radio**, plus editorial notices about manuscript submissions to Judge. The accompanying illustration of a woman at a typewriter is **product advertising imagery**, not satire. There are no political cartoons or caricatures visible on this page—it represents the advertising-heavy format typical of early 20th-century magazines.

) I nelor ach, imes amp. ught long cr a for sur- es I clear nter- uto- nso ver- st to oted ning i ——— proper flower quotas, and the idea is that this dissatisfaction and unrest will somehow seep through to hus- bands and that husbands will have to buy. I wonder if the grape growers would profit or lose by a great na- tional campaign with the slogan, “Say It With Grapes.” Somehow I feel it would rather stultify my grape buying. I would then have to hunt for some token of affection more spontancous than grapes—maybe sedans, fur coats, shoes, or something in the hardware line. As I walked through the flower show yesterday, I thought that flowers are all right, and I rather re- gretted that they have had to be reduced to an industry and adver- tised into our * sciousness,” as the advertising men say. At. the same time, I realized that some pople would never send flowers to anybody unless they were instructed to. Ad- vertising probably is responsible for the success of florists, and some of our best flowers are raised by florists. Therefore, since I do like flowers and the flower show, maybe I am all wrong about the “Say It With Flowers” slogan. Next Question “Hubby, do you love me “Yes.” “How much do you love me?” “How much do you need?" —Louisville Courier-Journal sas | Magistrate—Did you, or did you not, strike the policeman?

Waters—Did he get anything? “He certainly did! The poor beg- gar is in the hospital. My wife thought it was me.” —Answers (London) pss An American scientist predicts that by the use of a new rapid growth serum with which he is experiment- ing, the farmer will plant wheat one day and harvest the crop the next. That will leave $63 glorious days in which to grumble. —Humorist (London) “Brought Me This Genuine ." 3) UNDERWOOD” , only $3 brings this genuine Shipman-Ward | Rebuilt Standard Underwood direct {rom our factory, and then only small monthly payments while you are using it.
