Coast Guard Cutter Blasts an Undersea Killer
Crewmen aboard the United States coast guard cutter Spencer run to their battle stations (left) as a
submarine is sighted attacking a convoy in tbe North Atlantic. Judging from the broad grins the men seem
pleased to get a crack aT the sub. Seconds later a depth bomb (right) is flying through the air from one
of the Spencer’s guns. The terrific concussion caused by the depth charge forces the submarine to the sur
face where the Spencer’s guns are poised to deliver a final barrage which will send the undersea raider to
Its end.
On the Hard-Won Guadalcanal Battlefront
At the site of some of the bitterest fighting of the war, a senior medical officer of the United States naval
construction battalion is shown, at left, giving a blood transfusion to a Seabee in a foxhole on Guadalcanal
island in the Solomons. At right, several husky natives line up to receive their pay as stevedores. The Sea
bees—men of the naval construction battalion—are making a base of this island which was wrested from the
Japanese after a long battle in which both sides suffered heavy losses in planes, ships, and men.

Macabre Epitaphs Teach Fliers Care
Two photographers recline in the “cemetery” at the army air forces
school of applied tactics at Orlando, Fla. Serving as warnings to stu
dents about to engage in real warfare the epitaphs on the crosses read
as follows: “He showed a light at night.” “His gas mask leaked.” “He
lit a match on board a convoy ship.” This school gives the final polish
to army fliers by putting them under actual combat conditions.

of the situation as he crosses the threshold of an Allied headquarters
after his capture in North Africa with 200.000 other Nazis. In front of
Von Broitch is another captive. General Cramer. Captured generals
receive all the courtesy due their rank and Von Broitch looks as though
he expects it.
Digging in Gardens Instead of Mines
These coal miners are shown working on their victory gardens after
leaving their posts in the mines. For the second time within a month
virtually all mines employing FMW members were paralyzed by lack
of manpower. A nation-wide dim-out to eliminate all nonessential use
of electricity and a 25 per cent curtailment of all train travel were men
tioned as possible coal saving devices should they be necessary.

Help Them Cleanse the Blood
of Harmful Body Waste
Your kidneys are constantly filtering
waste matter from the blood stream. But
kidneys sometimes lag in their work—do
not act as Nature intended—fail to re
move impurities that, if retained, may

body machinery.
Symptoms may be nagging backache*
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—-a feeling of nervous
anxiety and lost of pep and strength.
Other sighs of kidney or bladder dis
