What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising and promotional material** rather than satirical editorial content. **"The Humors of War" section** contains three brief comic panels with captions sourced from British publications (London Opinion, Financial Mail, Bystander). These are wartime-era jokes: one depicts a gardener frustrated by unpredictable weather for his vegetable allotment; another shows a soldier's marital troubles. The humor relies on domestic inconveniences and mild wordplay rather than sharp political satire. **Main advertisements** promote Club Cocktails (emphasizing quality blending), Sunny Brook whiskey, Leslie's Magazine (celebrating government service), and Romeike's press-clipping bureau. **"Film Fun" magazine** is advertised as entertainment featuring movie stars and behind-the-scenes stories—positioned as wholesome fan magazine content. The page reflects wartime America's blend of commercial marketing with light humor drawn from allied British sources, lacking the sharper satirical edge one might expect from Judge's reputation.

FILM FUN for JUNE The Smile Behind the Man Behind the Gun HE making of a movie is al- most as full of romance and adventure as the finished film itself. There’s many a laugh and prank that happens “off-stage” that never reaches the screen. You can meet your favorites in- formally in the columns of FILM FUN. Besides their chatty stories and the striking pictures of the new features soon to be released, you'll find the magazine full of laughter and fun all its own.
