# Analysis of Judge Magazine Page 2 This page contains several humor pieces from Judge magazine. The main cartoon, titled "C'mon Rolo, the janitor wants to look up," shows a sleeping child being awakened—likely satirizing the contrast between innocent childhood sleep and the intrusion of adult responsibilities or domestic workers. The other sections include "Likely to Stop," "A Positive Bait," and "Down to Hard Pan"—brief comedic observations about social behavior. These appear to mock contemporary customs: wealthy pretense ("Positive Bait" references sheepskin attracting wolves), courtship rituals, and dental hygiene among young people. The "Famous Partnerships" section lists well-known entertainment duos of the era. The humor is genteel, focusing on social observation and mild mockery rather than political commentary.
