# Judge Magazine - May 21, 1929 This page features editorial commentary under "Judging the News" alongside a cartoon captioned "He swallowed my collar button." The cartoon depicts a domestic scene where a man appears distressed while a woman (likely his wife) gestures wildly, and a small child sits on the floor. The man seems to be blaming the child for swallowing his collar button—a mishap treated as a major domestic crisis. The satire likely mocks overblown domestic complaints and marital discord over trivial matters. The exaggerated reactions suggest the cartoonist is poking fun at how couples dramatize minor household incidents. The editorial text references Dr. Roy Andrews's dinosaur egg findings, NYC police concerns, agricultural predictions, and unemployment issues—typical early-1929 topics predating the stock market crash later that October.
