A Pie

Messrs. H. L. Mencken and George Jean Nathan (editors of Smart Set) have long offered a custard pie (size 3 1/2 by 4 3/4, actually baked and delivered) as prize for each month's most reprehensibly absurd statement in public print.

It is conceivable that the October pie will go to Judge, moribund comic weekly.

Two cheaply drawn and printed views of bathing nymphs in four-ounce costumes were offered in the " house ad" of Judge for Oct. 13 as " the two pictures the College and Prep School boys have gone crazy over."

Judge went further: " There's nothing that will make the college or prep school boy happier than to have one or both of these stunning pictures for his room."
