# Judge Magazine Page Analysis This page from Judge magazine contains mostly **humorous beverage recipes** rather than political satire. The "HIGH HAT" column presents cocktail and punch recipes submitted by readers, many featuring "Gordon Water" (likely a brand name product). The cartoons are brief comedic illustrations with minimal political content. The main visual shows a tall man in formal dress interacting with a shorter figure—typical Judge-style social humor about class or appearance contrasts. **"The Last Laugh"** story describes an elderly man entering a bank, withdrawing money from a savings account, then punching the cashier—the humor being the surprise violent punchline after building sympathy for the struggling senior. The "**Talk is Cheap**" section references a silent film with Bruce Ginsberg, typical of 1920s Judge content commenting on contemporary entertainment. This appears to be a **non-political Judge issue** focused on lifestyle humor, recipes, and entertainment references rather than political satire or commentary on current events.

The Last Laugh Grow but surely, step by step, the little old man made his way along the crowded city streets. Every few seconds he would pause to rest. and lean against the side of a build- ing until he gained strength enough to continue his journey. Hours later he stopped for his last rest before the ornate entrance of a huge gray stone building, and then pulling himself upright he entered the gilded doorway, and as one familiar with every foot of the way, walked slowly toward the cashier's cage at the back of the building. After a moment or so of fumbling in an inner pocket he pulled out a crumpled bill and a small time worn booklet and pushed them through the wicket. Then with a sudden move- ment he smacked the cashier on the nose, threw his cane through the plate glass window, and with shouts of glee went dashing out into the street. He had made the final payment on his installment plan radio. Jack Shuttleworth WER FIRST COTILLON WITH DASHING BRUCE CINSBERG TALK IS CHEAP Here is a good laugh on the com- muter. Little Hubert Parks was on the ferry with his mother. Suddenly he nudged her, and pointing to a lady who eat nearby, inquired, “Who's that, mumsey?” “Why, that is a Sister of Charity, dear,” replied the clever housewife. “Which one, mum- sey, Faith or Hope?” shot back Hubert.
