# Analysis of Judge Magazine Page **Top Cartoon ("Judge"):** A woman sits in an examination chair while a man (appearing to be a doctor or examiner) enters. The caption reads "I passed my bar examination today, dear!" This satirizes women entering the legal profession—likely early 20th century when female lawyers were rare and controversial. The joke appears to mock the idea of a woman as a lawyer, treating it as an absurd achievement worthy of comedic treatment. **"The Painters Are With Us":** A humorous poem about house painters creating mess and disruption during home renovation work. This is general domestic satire with no specific political reference—simply mocking the chaos painters cause during jobs. **Lower Cartoon:** Shows a woman naming Native American dolls to other figures, suggesting stereotypical naming conventions of the era.
