Humor supplement to the weekly Schwabian-American newspaper Schwäbisches Wochenblatt. Though we find no records for the New York-based newspaper or its supplement we do find a newspaper of the same name published by the Social Democratic Party of Germany. This periodical also appears to be anti-capitalist the cartoon on the first page of the first issue shows a worker slicing open the money-bag gut of Mammon. Most significantly this periodical began publication months after the United States entered World War I with much of the content on the plight of the German-born American citizens another cartoon shows an American citizen of German birth in a muzzle.
