What you’re looking at

This page contains brief satirical items and jokes rather than formal cartoons. The content includes: **Social Commentary:** - A jab at a Washington woman proposing bachelor taxes, suggesting she reverse her proposal since older bachelors lack value - A quip about Missouri's reputation for "raising democrats, mules and hell" - A Dode Leonard observation comparing near beer to looking through a keyhole with a glass eye (mocking Prohibition-era weak beer) **Humor:** The items use wordplay and social observation typical of 1920s men's humor magazines. They mock women's activism, regional stereotypes, and Prohibition. A "Latest Song Success" concludes the page with a clichéd romantic lament. The tone is irreverent and cynical, targeting contemporary social changes and political movements through brief, punchy jokes rather than sustained satire.
