What you’re looking at

**Top Cartoon:** A satirical scene depicting various animals (zebra, leopard, tiger) and people in what appears to be a zoo or circus setting, illustrating the caption: "AND YET SOME PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK THAT CAMOUFLAGE IS NEW." This mocks the idea that camouflage is a modern invention, when animals have used natural camouflage for millennia—likely a jab at contemporary military or fashion claims of novelty. **Bottom Cartoon:** A classroom scene where a teacher presents a geography or astronomy lesson to young students. The caption references "William Jones will soon return from abroad," suggesting this is commentary on someone's anticipated homecoming. The cartoon appears to satirize educational methods or perhaps Jones's absence and impact on his position. The artist is credited as "Will Dyson."
