This page showcases the winning and runner-up entries for **Judge magazine's "Draw Your Own Conclusions" Contest No. 45**, a visual humor competition where cartoonists completed a narrative sequence. The **winning cartoon** (by F.A. Purdy) depicts a humorous hunting mishap: a man encounters a bear while carrying a rifle marked "license for shooting bear." The four-panel sequence shows the man's escalating panic and the bear's aggressive response, culminating in comedic chaos. The **runners-up entries** feature similar themes of outdoor misadventures and animal encounters, rendered in the exaggerated, slapstick style typical of early 20th-century American comics. The humor relies on physical comedy and unexpected reversals of fortune common to the era. The page also includes subscription offers for Judge itself and an advertisement for Maurice Switzer's book *Satire & Song*, alongside Ford automobile pricing—typical of magazine content mixing editorial, contests, and advertising.
