# Judge Magazine Page Analysis This page contains two distinct cartoons and some aphoristic text. The top cartoon depicts children playing with toy cannons and explosions, captioned "Don't be too hard on them, Herbert; remember you were young once yourself." This appears to be social commentary about parental discipline and youthful mischief—likely cautioning parents against excessive punishment. The bottom cartoon shows a formal wedding scene with the bride's dramatic train, captioned "Gawad—I hope this is all a dream!" This satirizes anxious grooms or the overwhelming nature of formal weddings, a timeless humor target. The left column contains brief humorous observations about social behavior: being nice to people before success, artists' physical toll, and traveling salesmen. These are generic satirical observations rather than references to specific events or political figures.

Getting On in the World Be nice to people until you make a million, After that, peo- ple will be nice to you, Rubber-check artists usually end up doing a stretch, And dead traveling men tell no tales. Gabber—Those reporters are awful liars. Blabber—How do you mean? Gabber—Well, one of them interviewed my wife, and reported that she had nothing to say. The Dry Variety We often sit upon the porch And watch the clouds roll bys The air is never free of them; There is a large supply. The road has not been paved as yet, Which causes us disgust; Because the only clouds we see Are clouds and clouds of dust. —R. C. O'Bries “Don't be too hard on them, Herbert; remember you young once yourself.” “Gawd—I hope this is all a dream!” ‘ were icbooks.com
