This is basically me for the first three months of college. But less pipe and suspenders.

What's the message behind it, though?

"Always ask yourself, 'Is this trip necessary?'"

Ah, thanks. I was wondering which kind of ad would promote not spending your money, and not buying this wonderful summer package for the happy family! It seemed an anti-ad, but I was unaware it was a wartime ad.

And now that I'm almost starting spring break from teaching, honest-to-god this guy's idea of a great vacation looks like heaven to me!

Don't spend your money on wasteful things like travelling when there's a war on...You'll also see this referenced in some old wartime Bugs Bunny cartoons when certain characters ask the question 'Was this trip really necessary?'

Oh! I see. Get it now and love it, thanks for explaining. I didn't get who would be willing to advertise Un-Wonderful Summer Holidays; I'm extremely unfamiliar with wartime US history, me.

Why is he wearing long sleeves and such and running the fan on high at the same time? Is he putting his vacation dollars into his electric bill?
