What you’re looking at

# Explanation of Life Magazine Page 886 This page contains three distinct pieces of satire: 1. **"Good-bye, Suffragists!"** — Mocks the Woman Suffrage Association's expected dissolution after the suffrage amendment was ratified by thirty-six states. The author sarcastically suggests women will simply merge into existing male-dominated political organizations, and ironically notes that even Susan Anthony's soul won't find rest since women will finally vote. 2. **"On the Future Bread Line"** — A cartoon dialogue between a clerk and applicant, with a father advising his son that bad business decisions lead to hardship—a cautionary tale about trusts and failed business leadership. 3. **"Even Keeley's May Come Back"** and **"The Dog and the Shadow"** — References to the Keeley Cure (alcohol treatment facility) closing, warning that money and vice will persist despite prohibition.
