# "Make More Noise, Meadows" This Judge cartoon satirizes someone named Meadows, depicted as a formally-dressed man at the center of a chaotic party scene. The caption's imperative—"Make More Noise, Meadows"—suggests he's being mocked for either being too quiet at social gatherings or failing to create sufficient disturbance/attention. The crowded, energetic scene around him features musicians, dancers, and revelers in 1920s-style dress, emphasizing the contrast between the subdued central figure and the surrounding pandemonium. The satire likely targets a public figure or type—possibly a politician or social personality—for insufficient boldness or visibility during a significant period. Without additional context about who "Meadows" refers to specifically, the broader point appears to be mockery of someone expected to be more prominent or vocal.
