This page features the winning entry in Judge's "Draw Your Own Conclusions" Contest No. 41—a four-panel cartoon by E.H. Purdy depicting characters living inside a large tree trunk with holes. The humor appears to derive from the visual pun: the tree's natural openings become "faces" or living spaces for the cartoon figures, creating an absurdist domestic scene. The "Runners Up" section shows six additional cartoon entries playing with similar visual wordplay and surreal scenarios—anthropomorphized animals and exaggerated characters in unlikely situations typical of Judge's comedic style. The right side comprises advertisements for self-help products (memory training, hair loss treatment) and business opportunities (tire puncturing, auto body parts), typical of 1920s-era magazine advertising targeting male readers with promises of success and self-improvement. The cartoons themselves are purely whimsical rather than political or socially satirical—representing Judge's general humor content alongside its advertising revenue.
