# "Judge" Magazine - December 3, 1927 **Main Cartoon: "Jump!"** The cartoon depicts a rotund woman struggling to hold an umbrella in heavy rain, while a fashionable couple and child stand nearby. The man says, "ISN'T DAD THE RIDICULOUS OLD THING?" This appears to be satirizing generational attitudes and changing fashion/social norms of the 1920s. The "ridiculous old thing" likely refers to the umbrella itself—a dated accessory—or possibly the older generation's values. The contrast between the struggling older woman and the stylish young family suggests mockery of outdated practices or appearances. **"Judging the News" section** contains brief satirical commentary on contemporary topics: Kansas oil company practices, German glass architecture, and medical hypnosis at Chicago hospitals.
