What you’re looking at

This page contains five separate humorous poems and verses rather than cartoons. The content includes: **"A Regular Girl"** — A poem about wanting a woman who is attractive, witty, thrifty but fashionable, and well-spoken (but not talkative to the point of hoarseness). **"Private Jack Horner"** — A brief anecdote about a soldier pulling the pin on a Mills grenade (a WWI-era weapon) while sitting in a corner, apparently absenting himself from a parade. **"Oh, You Blues!"** — A short verse about wanting a "lovin' daddy" and suggesting one get a soldier man; includes the nursery-rhyme-style doctor anecdote about Dr. Peck falling in a well. **Final line** — A humorous conditional statement comparing getting drunk to being a diving duck. These are typical of *Whiz Bang*'s mix of mild humor, military references, and everyday observations aimed at soldiers and post-WWI audiences.
