An ad in The Egoist, the British literary journal where T.S. Eliot was assistant editor. I love how proudly they quote the criticism. Dissatisfying! Very unequal! Missing the effort by too much cleverness!

The Egoist, January 1918

Judge was a humor magazine that managed almost never to be funny–more on that later–but they had some great illustrators. My favorites from the January 3, 1918, issue:

Judge cartoon, what if the movie men managed your elopement, January 3, 1918

Judge Cartoon, soldiers pass through Yapp's crossing, Johnny Gruelle, January 3, 1918.
