What you’re looking at

# Judge Page Analysis This page contains two separate cartoon commentaries: **Top cartoon ("Why Teachers Look That Way")**: Satirizes teacher discipline through a golf scene where a woman golfer has struck a ball wildly. The accompanying text presents complaints from a parent (Miss Boland) defending her son Harold's behavior and "artistic temperament," while criticizing teachers for being too strict. The joke mocks overindulgent parents who blame teachers rather than disciplining their own children—the wild golf swing visualizes the chaos of undisciplined youth. **Bottom cartoon ("It's all right, officer")**: Shows a woman telling a police officer she's "only locking up my jewelry," implying marital suspicion or infidelity concerns. This is a domestic humor gag about trust in marriage. Both target social anxieties about authority, parenting, and relationships circa early 20th century.
