This page is primarily **advertising and editorial masthead** for *Judge* magazine and its sister publication *Popular Radio*. The main cartoon shows a domestic scene: a boy caught smoking a cigar by his parent, claiming he bought it "at Hamilton's"—a likely reference to a real tobacconist—and offering to order more for the father. The joke relies on the boy's innocent shamelessness about his vice and the parent's implied interest in obtaining the same product. Below is a theater review column discussing plays by the Provincetown Players, including Strindberg's "Dream Play," and brief critical notes on other productions. The page includes an "Applause Card" contest inviting readers to vote on the magazine's funniest 1926 contributions, with prizes of $500 for winning artist and writer. The content reflects 1920s magazine culture and theatrical criticism rather than political satire.

Judging the Shows (Continued from page 16) Il yatriotically put on two plays, “Adam Soli- and “The Man Who Never ”’ and learned that patriotism y often be the worse part of manu- script judgment, the Provincetowners have pulled down the flag and fallen back on their venerable camarado, Strindberg. Their presentation of his “Dream Ple is an interesting one and is to be recommended to all such persons as firmly believe that old August could write nothing that didn’t have to do with mayhem, cholera morbus germs, insane asy- lums, degeneracy, paralytic strokes and murder. In this “Dream Play” we find the first seeds of the later Expressionism. And, in addition, one of the worthy dramas of the modern theater. —Passing Show IV “M ve On,” by Charles B.
