What you’re looking at

# Analysis of Life Magazine Page 866 **Top Cartoon**: An artist shows a patron his portrait work, saying "I put my whole self into your portrait. But what about me?" This satirizes artistic ego—the painter wants credit alongside the subject's likeness. **Bottom Cartoon**: A golfer tells his caddie "No, no, caddie! I'll use the same club," mocking a golfer's tendency to blame equipment rather than skill for poor shots. **Articles**: "It Works Both Ways" discusses WWI book publishing (over 100,000 war books published, fourteen new ones daily), comparing historical uncertainty about war to biblical uncertainty about Adam. "Lacking in Humor" features a brief joke about an American boy answering "George M. Cohan" when asked who made the first American flag. The page combines visual humor with light commentary on contemporary issues.
