# Analysis This Judge magazine page contains several brief satirical items and a cartoon. The main topics are: **Content items:** - A jab at Turkish cigarette importers and an Ottoman protester - Mockery of Rochester University's "Atheistic Club" (called "The Damned Souls Society"), suggesting it would make pedestrians eligible [for something—the joke is unclear] - A police note about a captured ex-convict and radio thefts - Commentary on Soviet marriage statistics in Leningrad, sarcastically claiming the short four-year average duration proves Leningrad won't produce successful movie stars - A claim that sex originated 70 million years ago, crediting Michael Arlen (likely a contemporary writer being satirized) **The cartoon** shows a rural/farm scene with anthropomorphic animals and someone asking "How much ya gettin' fr sausages now, Schultz?" The humor appears to involve dark implications about the fate of farm animals. The page dates to **April 29, 1926**.
