This short is one of four that the Disney studio created for Canada. It reuses the animation from "The Three Little Pigs", one of the earliest and most famous of Disney's cartoon shorts, which was a huge success in 1933. Here, the sturdiest of houses is built not with regular old brick, but with war savings certificates. The Big Bad Wolf becomes a Nazi officer, complete with Swastika armband. It was very neat to see this twist on the original short, which is slightly windowboxed and ends with straightforward animated messages encouraging Canadians to buy war savings certificates to support the war efforts.

In this short created for Canada, we open with the lovable little men from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs going about their digging and singing in the mine. They sing "Heigh Ho" with new lyrics, such as "It's off to buy we go", "We'll do our part with all our heart", and "We'll with the war with 'Five-for-Four'." New animation takes the dwarfs into the post office to buy some war certificates! Again, the short ends with dramatic animated messages urging viewers to "Keep your money fighting." This short is one of the most interesting in the set. It's inherently entertaining to see the Dwarfs return four years after their film to promote purchasing war certificates.

Donald Duck dances at the sight of military posters and envisions himself as part of the army. He merrily reports with his draft card and expresses a desire to be part of the air corps. First he must go through his physical examination, in which a bunch of partially-seen doctors give him a full look-over. Passing the tests, Donald is fitted for his uniform. Soon he's reporting for duty, and his sergeant is none other than Pete! Pete has some one-on-one training in mind for the duck. Donald's got to deal with pesky ants and his only defense is some potent perspiration.

We catch up with Donald, who in his new job as camoflauge painter, is ineptly coloring a cannon vibrant tropical hues. Snooping around the experimental lab, Donald discovers invisible paint. First, he makes the cannon disappear and when his supervising sergeant, an agitated Pete, checks up on him, Donald winds up being entirely invisible. This fun short makes good use of the invisibility concept and Donald's character.

This short, produced with supervision by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, opens with a dreary scene of crops destroyed at the hands of evil Axis powers. The hope, it informs us, is the abundant farm lands of America. The farmers are portrayed as heroes in the face of war, and the short provides some interesting facts about the resources of America which could be used to destroy Axis forces and tower over world landmarks. The ridiculous nature of the analogies surely is known by the film-makers, but the tone is blended with sincere efforts to support the war cause. The result is an odd mix, but one of the most interesting.

This short, distributed under the auspices of the War Activities Committee Motion Picture Industry, opens with Minnie Mouse cooking on the stove and tempting Pluto with "some delicious hot bacon grease." A voice stops the transaction and encourages the housewives of America to save waste kitchen fats, which can make glycerin which can be used to make explosives. Then, as Pluto agrees not to consume the grease, the narrator gives directions on how to sell the fat to the government for money. This could be the most bizarre Disney short ever created; it's undoubtedly interesting.

This third cartoon made for Canada reuses animation from two earlier Donald Duck shorts. Donald must make a decision. He could follow a haloed angel to enlist as a regular war saver. Or he could heed the words of a devil duck who comes out of a mailbox which has a flag that spins to make a Swastika and encourages reckless spending. It looks a bit more washed out than the other shorts.

This is the last of the shorts for the National Film Board of Canada. There's a most impressive parade that includes Donald Duck, his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, Pinocchio, Geppetto, Figaro, Pluto, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, the cast of the 1935 short "The Band Concert", and all seven dwarfs from Snow White. All the characters do is march, carrying signs, and play music. Nonetheless, it makes fine use of the impressive array of recognizable characters that Disney had, even in 1942. Sort of a "House of Mouse" before its time.

Donald Duck dances to a remix of Yankee Doodle Dandy. He then listens to an anthropromorphic radio encouraging him to do something of great importance: pay his income tax. Proclaiming "taxes to beat the Axis", Donald rushes off to fill out his individual income tax return. The radio helps him through each step and then the short proceeds to show how filing taxes promptly and accurately supports American factories in their efforts to win the war. Putting Donald in a short on such a human topic yields amusing results.

This Academy-Award winning short opens with a 80-second Maltin introduction discussing how enemies are demonized in war, and not always with good taste. As Nazis march outside, Donald Duck wakes up a Nazi. As Donald sits down to coffee and a wood-like slice of bread, the buffonish soldiers shove Mein Kampf in his face, and then stick him in a factory where he has to work on a conveyor belt of shells and artillery and repeat "Heil Hitler" again and again.
All the work drives Donald a bit nuts, until he wakes up in the good old United States, the victim not of Nazi Europe but merely a nightmare.

This short begins with Donald marching at the back of a line of soldiers, fighting fatigue and a variety of inclement weather. When they finally arrive to base, Donald is very eager to eat and settle down. Of course, in true Donald Duck fashion, a number of comic obstacles still stand in the way of a good night's sleep. Like some good shorts, words can't do justice to how entertaining this one is.

The short begins with a brief history of the growth of cities resulting from the introduction of auto-mobiles. With gas and rubber shortages, one must think of alternative vehicles to cars. The short plays out as Goofy displays a variety of innovative travelling devices, with the narrator commenting. At one point, Goofy runs into a sign that proclaims, "Beat the Jap with Scrap." Puns and alteration ensue, and the pogo stick is heralded as the ultimate solution to transportation problems.

Like "Donald's Decision" this short puts Donald Duck in a moral conflict with two different actions advised. The thrifty encourages Donald to save the fruits of his payday, while the spendthrift tries to take him to the Idle Hour Club to blow the money that's been burning a hole in Donald's pocket. The short professes saving to meet the demands of high wartime taxes. The propaganda continues on a while, with dramatic imagery and music and the repeated line is "Taxes to sink the Axis." A good amount of the animation is reused from other shorts.

Here we are introduced to Public Enemy Number 1, Anopheles the Malaria Mosquito, who is wanted for willful spreading of disease and theft of working hours. The mosquito is personified as one of the great Disney villains, as we learn of their methods of ingesting parasites with human blood and then spreading malaria. The announcer calls for six or seven members of the audience to help out, and up pop...the seven dwarfs! The dwarfs demonstrate how to combat the monstrous mosquito problem by cutting weeds, spraying oil, draining water from tree stumps, and installing screens over doors and windows. A dramatic and unusual short film.

This short begins with live action footage of a group of children in a doctor's office. One of the kids, named Tubby, is going in for a vaccination. The doctor decides to show the children how their bodies work to fight off disease.
At this point, animation is used to show the parts of the body carrying out their function. The body is personified as a city, and along the highway arteries, blood workers travel. An unwanted visitor--a germ--sneaks in, and multiplies to the music of Grieg's "Peer Gynt." The germs take over the body and...death. The point being, vaccination is good and protects people from deadly disease. There's a more complex, sophisticated look and style to its animation, and the live action footage looks remarkable for something sixty years old.

After an unskippable 65-second intro from Leonard Maltin meant to prepare you for this grim, fabled short, Education for Death opens with the question, "What makes a Nazi?" A couple informs the Nazi government that a son has born to them. They insist he is fully Aryan and get a copy of Mein Kampf and approval to name him "Hans." In Kindergarten, Hans learns the story of "Sleeping Beauty" in which the prince is Hitler, portrayed as guttural and insane. Sleeping Beauty is an obese woman with a Viking helmet who represents Germany. Hitler becomes a hero for Hans, who is being weaned into a fearless and hateful young man. Some dramatic, stylized animation distinguishes this from the other shorts in this collection. Though it employs a tiny bit of humour, its subject matter is about as dark as possible and it is more than a bit disturbing. As Maltin states, though, that was the point of it.

This short takes us into the mind of Junior, a young diaper-wearing boy. Junior's actions are governed by both leavel-headed Reason and the imaginative, thrill-seeking Emotion. Junior grows up as do the two associates in his head. When Emotion takes the driver's seat and calls a woman "babe", he gets slapped. We then go inside the woman's head, where her scantily-clad Emotion seeks pleasure by indulging in sweets. The point the short comes to make is that in this time of war, that throwing reason out of the way is fine...for Hitler! The conflict of reason and emotion lends itself to innovation, but it's also distressing. The audio is a bit flat on this short, which is preceded by a 30-second introduction from Maltin.

In the 50-second intro to this short, Leonard Maltin encourages parents to screen the cartoon and decide if it's appropriate to show to their kids. In this allegory, a malicious fox comes upon a fenced farm and terrorizes the feathered inhabitants. The fox's first target is the dim-witted Chicken Little, who is easily convinced that the sky is falling and spreads the word. The farm's leader, Cocky Locky, assures them it's a piece of wood, not sky. So, the fox tries to spread doubt among the farm animals through the clucking women turkeys and drinking ducks. The fox then encourages Chicken Little to become leader. This parable takes more from Nazi philosophy and less from the more familiar story of Chicken Little. And there's no happy ending.

Two families are contrasted - the Clean Family and the Careless Family. The Clean Family maintains a clean house, with food sheltered from flies and pigs confined in fence. The Careless Family, on the other hand, lets their pig and chickens loose to wander in the yard. The careless mother cooks on the floor, which we learn...is...bad. The careless son does even worse by soiling the family's corn crops in the process of relieving his cramps. (The Careless Family is also the Latrineless Family.) When his father sifted the dirt through his fingers "the way a true farmer would", the invisible sickness struck. Simultaneously funny and disgusting, "Cleanliness" is not to be missed.

Nutrition is the topic of this short, which tells us about Careless Charlie and his family, who are run down because they just keep eating the same food - beans and corn bread. The needs of the human body are said to fall into three classes: fruits & vegetables, animal products, and grains and roots. Yes, it's preaching and the message is a diet of variety. But if Careless Charlie can be known as Careful Charlie, chances are, you can, too, provided that your name is Charlie!
